If you have nothing better to do (and I know you don't) and you live in or near Berkeley (and I know you should), feel free to drop by Sunday to my school (Black Pine Circle)'s annual "half carnival half crafts fair" known as Cornucopia.

"Gee, Nico, sounds interesting! What is Cornucopia?" Cornucopia features carnival activities, such as a dunk tank and bounce house, and a veritable plethora of arts/crafts booths set up by local merchants who sell everything from t-shirts and scarves to pottery and jewelry.

"Wow, must be expensive." Why no, italicized voice-over, it isn't. Admission is free to all, with dollar tickets sold for the various activities and items, and the proceeds from tickets and items sold going to Black Pine Circle School (a non-profit) and/or to the local merchants who set up tables to peddle offer their wares.

"Now I'm all atwitter! When is Cornucopia?" It's tomorrow - Sunday - from 10am-4pm, and yours truly, aka me, will be there for at least the first half of the day. From 10am-12pm you can find me at the dunk tank. No, you cannot dunk me but you can buy tickets from me, and if you have better aim than Daniel Cabrera you can probably dunk one of my awesome volunteer students.

"Cool! Where is it, exactly?" It's all along 7th Street in Berkeley, between University Ave. and Addison St. The entire block is closed to traffic for this event, which is aimed at children of all ages as well as adults. So if you can find "7th and University" or "7th and Addison" in Berkeley, you can find Cornucopia. If you can find children being submerged in water against their will, you can find me. Special promotion: Mention AN and receive a free slap on the ass!

"That's all great, but how exactly does this relate to baseball or the A's?" Shut up. And see you there!
