If it's not free shipping it's not worth it.

Happy birthday!!

I don't celebrate today. It's in Nissan.  Though if I'm trying to write today's date I have to be extra cautious to write 2024 rather than my default of writing something from a different century out of habit.

Just remember that when someone is born at night before midnight there's a "mismatch" between the dates.

That's for "Amim" to celebrate.
Amim is the Rebbe or JJ Hecht?

IDK. Can someone post the story.

In any event, did the Rebbe ever celebrate anything based on anything but the Jewish calendar.

From an unnamed facebook source found via Google, so I don't know how reliable/accurate it is.

Quote
לרב שלום הכט, הבעלים של חנות הספרים המפורסמת בפלטבוש, ניו יורק, היה קשר מופלא וארוך שנים עם הרבי מלובביץ', והרבי היה מדבר אתו באופן חברי מאוד. באחת מהיחידויות הרבות אליהם נכנס הרב העכט, נפל תאריך היחידות ביום הראשון של השנה האזרחית. בשלב מסוים במהלך ה'יחידות', איחל לו הרבי "שנה טובה". הוא הסביר מיד שרבי לוי יצחק מברדיצ'ב נהג לאחל לקהילתו 'שנה טובה', בהתבסס על הנאמר בפרק פ"ז בתהילים - 'ה יספור בכתוב עמים'.

סיפור נוסף. מדי פעם היה נכנס הרב ניסן מינדל, המזכיר של הרבי, בלילות, וכך נכנס במקרה בערב השנה החדשה הלועזית בשעת חצות. הרבי אמר: "happy new year". לפליאתו והשתוממותו של ר' ניסן נענה הרבי: 'הרי כתוב "ה' יספור בכתוב עמים".
כלומר, גם לספירת הגויים יש משמעות בשמיים, ויש לזה אפילו השלכה מסוימת על עם ישראל, שהלא לכל עם יש המלאך הממונה עליו והגורל הנגזר לו בשמיים, מתחילת שנה ועד סופה. היות שלאומות העולם יש השפעה על עם ישראל בין אם לשבט בין אם לחסד אז ממילא נרצה שיגזרו עלינו גזירות טובות, גם בתחנת זמן זו שאינה כביכול, שלנו.
