But the best present would be Saturday.
Billie Holliday had a great song called Autumn In New York. It's so evocative that even if you've never been in New York in the fall you can feel it the leaves falling and the crispness of the fall air.
It's not fall but Duke football is spending Christmas in New York, and that's been something the entire country has been aware of/in love with for, well, ever. Movies, songs, the whole nine yards.
The Blue Devils are staying in Times Square which is also pretty cool.
It must be interesting though to be in New York, to have that aura all around you, and to be preparing for a bowl game on the morrow.
