Merry Christmas everybody! In the spirit of after-Christmas sales, I've got a few late gifts for some special people. They'll be purchased and shipped just as soon as I get my quarterly report from Wells-Fargo and/or my secondary retirement fund "matures" either this Saturday or next Wednesday night. Not all listed have been at or near the top of Santa's list, but are deserving nonetheless. Feel free to add any you'd like to bestow as well. Here goes:
For Ox, his very own R2D2 to troubleshoot when the Commodore 64's experience trouble (Actually, I'm very thankful for his work on this site and hopes he enjoys running it as much as most seem to enjoy participating).
For Rex (and others, you know who you are), a sack full of 4 and 5 stars on NSD. Failing that, a bunch of 3 stars comparable to Calloway should suffice as long as some Milk of Magnesia is included to fill the gap between signing and actually performing. Seriously, your desires for the best of the best for our Gators is appreciated.
For Will Grier, the "Wizard of Oz" trifecta...heart, brains, and courage. He'll need them in greater working order than I think he currently possesses if he's going to avoid recreating situations like he did while at UF.
For Southern Griilin, a true identity. One that would either strengthen the Gator allegiance claimed or one that will allow him to comfortably be a rival on the board, as you can't successfully be both. An accessory gift that may help would be a gift certificate and an evening of in depth conversation at a wine bar with Lawrence of Florida.
For Alvin, lasting peace in Serbia and a sack full of moral victories for the Vols. An additional stocking stuffer might be a new significant other to help him release the penned up Tennessee tension. I would hate for him to be the first man, Albanian or otherwise, to expire from chronic Carpal-Tunnel syndrome.
For Sas and his Queen, many happy years of wedded bliss, healthy children, and prosperity for a lifetime. Also for Queenie, a grooming kit and the willingness to shave Sas' back as needed and to, on request, remove any and all unwanted superficial body hair.
For Coach Mac, continuing love and loyalty among him and his staff. Thinking that they've got a lot of good things started and going on. At the very least, they've been a welcome relief (for me at least) from the last five seasons save '12.
For Gators everywhere, not only a return to the CFB top shelf, but a minimalization of poor decisions, in-fighting, and other mullygrubbing, from athletes, coaches, and fans alike. May 2016 be the best it can be and at the very least, fulfilling for the faithful.
