Dear Santa,
Here we are again less than a week from your big day, and I am just now getting you my Christmas wish list. You haven’t been the only fellow super-busy this year. Tuscano staff have been so busy I am thinking of getting them all a set of juggling balls for Christmas – they have gotten that good at having half a dozen things in the air at one time!
As you know, my life is full with good things; I have an awesome family, a great job, and the good fortune to have love and laughter in my life. I just have a few requests for some other folks so if you don’t mind, could you please deliver a couple of last minute items:
Jinny seems to have been sharing her Tequila supply with anyone who will hang around after work on Fridays so I think she would appreciate an extra bottle in her stocking!
Bill got a new (Harley) motorcycle last summer which suits him just fine – low to the ground so he can get his leg over the saddle – but he is having a hard time finding the kickstand on this one. So, maybe you could find something in bright orange that he’ll be able to see?
Jeff Johnson would like you to expand our underwriting territory with each of our carriers to all 19 states we are now doing business in. After all, we’re not a 'one-state wonder' anymore!
I’m not sure which negotiation I’d prefer you to mediate – the NHL lockout or the Congressional impasse on the budget – can you do something about these?
The Pirates gave their fans a real good ride this season, but they sputtered just when they needed to finish strong. Could you bring back the power of Zoltan in 2013 triple- strength this time?
Is it too soon to ask for healing for our country and for the families in Newtown that experienced the worst kind of tragedy? Santa, peace and kindness are your strong suit, if you could drop off a little extra in all of our hearts as you make your rounds, I think it would help.
And don’t forget the men and women who serve our country abroad, especially those who make the sacrifice of separation from their loved ones this holiday.
FYI - I am going back on my diet so I’m afraid you’ll be getting soy milk and gluten-free cookies at my house this year – just don’t hold it against me, OK?
I still believe,
