War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Once again as if part of an oft-repeated scenario, ground fog and warmth this early Tuesday on California’s north coast as we push on through the work week. However, for someone who’s just fed-up with work, I have nothing-but Friday on my mind. And as the planet disintegrates a little bit every few seconds, Americans…
Ground fog and a bit warm this way-too-early Monday on California’s north coast as another work week starts whether we like it or not — not! Those last two days appear much-much shorter than those other ones — why? The weather up here has been super great the last month, and the upcoming week appears…
Truth always trumps — no matter an impossible-case reporting what’s right. Case in point: Glenn Greenwald, in an interview last month: “The key to the social control was the possibility that they could be watched at any time.” Published 64 years ago last week, George Orwell’s “1984” has been the ultimate/universal code for bad-government juju.…
(Illustration found here). Just as everything got worse, it did — dust blown thousands of miles is darkening ice on earth’s glaciers and in the Arctic, eliminating “albedo,” the process of ice reflecting sunlight, adding heat in the environment, and further/faster climate change. From the Guardian today: The phenomenon of “dark snow” is being recorded from…
A foggy and chilly Saturday morning on California’s north coast — normal as the word ‘standard.’ Last week, as anyone paying just a gist-amount of attention would know, results from a Quinnipiac University National Poll showed President Obama the worse US president since WWII, and also included this question to respondents: How much of the…
Ground fog again this early Friday on California’s north coast — and all is quiet and still, mainly due to no one (except me) having to work. Today is some kind of holiday, I’m told. Yeah, right — it’s Independence Day, the fourth of July. America’s 238th birthday, though, a shitload of morons believe it’s…
Foggy again this early Thursday on California’s north coast, but supposedly we’re into a nice stretch of weather, especially with the big holiday tomorrow. Although just a mile or so inland temperatures are expected to be in triple digits the next few days, for us here on the shoreline, it will be in the balmy…
Fickle the hands of events, coupled with stupid: In a survey of 1,446 registered voters, 33 percent said Obama was the worst president since World War Two, while 28 percent pointed to his predecessor, George W. Bush, as the worst, the poll by Quinnipiac University found. A blue-tinted, sad graph at USAToday shows next down from George…
Another normal early-morning here on California’s north coast — foggy and a bit warm even for the middle of the work week, though, this particular Wednesday is sucking up this nation’s birthday. Friday is the famous July 4 — our Independence Day (with aliens, too, but of the Hispanic variety) — but Arthur might strike…
Overcast with a bit of ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast as we pass the halfway mark for 2014 — time flies, period. Fun or not. Although we’ve had some gorgeous weather here, another product of the times — a derechos — had formed in the US Midwest and last night churned…
