- Although contrary to popular belief, that isn't necessary. -Stephen (Steg) "One is obligated to be very joyous on this day, in eating and drinking, until nothing is lacking; and of course we are not commanded to get drunk and remove ourselves from the joy - for we have not been commanded to have happiness of wildness and stupidity, but to have happiness of pleasure that will lead us to love God and thank him for the miracles that he has done for us." ~ the Me'iri
