Just as we...

Surprise! It's still winter.

... yo-yo from time to time, so does Mother Nature. Oh, she does... maybe not in weight like us, but certainly in temperature. And the Gentlemen experienced Gaia's yo-yoing recently after enduring a 40 degree temperature swing in the span of less than twenty-four hours. One day, it was 70F and sun, and the Gentlemen took to their park, St. Edward's Park, for warmth, to catch a few rays of sunshine as well as to partake in conversation and games. The scene in the Park was very much like that of a salon in Paris during the Enlightenment. And just when the finer points of Aristotle and Aquinas had been waxed eloquently, surprise! It's still winter, and winter we all felt. Gone was the warmth of the golden orb in sky. Gone were its rays. Gone was the frivolity- and learning- in the Park. All of this and more were replaced with howling, cold winds of speeds at forty-five miles per hour and a high and balmy temperature peaking at 30F. On Mother's Nature's temperature yo-yoing, Leandro Avelar, Steds junior and Salvadorian, declared, "Just when you thought things were getting tropical around here, South Bend hits you with the cold reality it's not!"
