The gift that keeps on giving

I think the summer heat is melting my brain:

Seen in a campus building: "This lobby space given as a gift by Mr. and Mrs. Phil Ann Thropist.

Wondered silently: "How does one give a lobby?"

"Happy birthday, I got you....a lobby!"
"Thanks...uh...I don't have anywhere to put it."
"How 'bout here?"
"Hmm, I was hoping to get a living room for Christmas, and I was gonna put that here."

The Coldest Winter

Fog stumbled in over the hills today...

Haha just kidding. Although it did, and it made me wonder about this Berkeley that has such breezy springs, mild autumns and dry winters. So why the sad summers?
