War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Raining this early Tuesday on California’s north coast and the world looks a bit gray in the darkness. Daylight won’t help. Beyond typhoons, gun violence or torching a doobie at the MTV awards, the planet continues to be under a deep-throated surveillance by our betters at the NSA. Despite the spotlight, they’re still operating full-gallop.…
A little afternoon news look-see. If I can get the physical moxie in the PM, this could be a regular feature, maybe. A news junkie from way back, I hit a lot online news sites at least twice a day — once way early, then just after I get off work in the early afternoon.…
Clear, but cold and chilly this way-too-early Monday here on California’s north coast — the weather is pointing in the right direction. Winter’s on the way, or something else, more weird. An environment that’s changing is bringing together unlikely peoples. A few days ago, two people were attacked by polar bears in Churchill, Manitoba, mainly due…
Clear and bright-as-mirrored sunshine at dawn this Sunday morning on California’s north coast, but the brilliance was quickly replaced by a deep-gray as thick ground fog rolled in from the Pacific — if you don’t like the weather up here, just wait a minute. Coastal regions are like that, staying the same, but constantly changing.…

Oh, sweet, sweet Friday — high overcast with some twinkling stars visible here on California’s north coast this way-early morning as we prepare for the weekend. Look’s like somebody’s got a case of the Fridays. One guy who’s got a bad case of a the ‘second term,’ is President Obama — this year has been…
A faint rain drizzle earlier with near-balmy temperatures for the north coast of California this Thursday afternoon — altogether not unpleasant — but far, far to the west, mega-badass Super Typhoon Haiyan has clobbered the Philippine island of Samar, about 330 miles east of Manila. Supposedly, Haiyan made landfall with winds up to 195 mph,…
Fog again this Thursday morning on California’s north coast as we get ready to finish this quick-nothing work week. Middle-of-the-night health problems has caused a shit-feeling early, and the rest of the particular day I hope is better. We’ll see. A lot of shit is happening all over the world, but a most of it…
High overcast and light ground fog this early Wednesday on California’s north coast and the weekend is now within the mind’s eye sight. As we used to say a shitload of years ago, ‘Keep on truckin’.’ But to where? This morning, the news is jammed with results from yesterday’s off-year elections — more-than-fat-headed Chris Christie…
Drizzling rain and a bit windy this way-too-early Tuesday on California’s north coast as we stumble further into the week. Nutcase times we do live in, as we travel along. Guns and more guns — in Denver, police arrested a couple of juveniles this morning after they broke into a middle school, and then created a…
