Every Who down in Whoville liked Christmas a lot,
but the Gridge, who lived just north of Whoville - did not.
The Gridge hated Christmas - the whole Christmas season.
Now, please don't ask why; no one quite knows the reason.
It could be, perhaps, that his shoes were too tight.
Or it could be that his head wasn't screwed on just right.
But I think that the most likely reason of all
may have been that his heart was two sizes too small.
The Gridge asked each of the Whos who said they could swim,
what makes you poor noodlers think you will beat him?
Allen sent me a PM last week to let me know that because he missed SPMA's, he changed up his events in this meet so he could cover his primary events (breaststroke of course) for the SCM season. So our 100 fly gridge was cancelled. But then today I saw on the heat sheets that he was still entered in the 100 fly. I thought, wow, that's sneaky, and/or the Ghost of Gridgemas Past! (And sneakiness is a good thing! When a gridge is involved, all manner of trickery is pre-approved, including disguises, bribery, fake prosthetic limbs, etc) But it was not to be. Allen did not swim the 100 fly. But in the span of just a couple hours, wearing a fake moustache and entered under the alias Buck Jaked, he swam the 100 *** twice, the 200 ***, and then won the 50 *** just shortly after the 200! Great swimming, Buck!
Wow the techsuit ban can't come soon enough... that alias is just... creepy
