I received a gift of a T shirt for my 65th birthday two yrs ago with a gray squirrel seated on a park bench and the following message:

"I'm so old I cannot remember where my nutz are "

Two yrs later it's even more true.....

Owls represent wisdom....???...

I remember where my nuts are. I just can't find 'em.

I have to give credit where credit is do. Jeff Compher does another excellent job of handing out an award. He is so photogenic and portrays a highly masculine image in all his award presentations. I'll bet he doesn't have a hard time locating his nuts.
Did Coffman really win this award? He deserves it, but did he really win it?

A large portion of Jeff Compher's job is to march out to mid-field (or the north 20-yard line) or mid-court and present awards and game balls. He does this very well.

Our village president appears multiple times and in various local events during the week and his foto is found on every other page of the weekly Lombardian. He often presents or receives one honor or another. It's become a joke to many. It's also what folks like Compher are expected to do.....schmooze at every opportunity imaginable....You never know when such foto shoots/presentations will reap a future benefit....

Jake did not win the overall award but was recognized as a finalist.
