War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
A near-ethereal sunrise this early Wednesday, at least as witnessed from my little back patio, situated not far from California’s north coast, — sky to the east hazy, but above and roundabout seemingly clear as a bell. Maybe rain forecast now for Saturday night, but till then, according to the NWS, continuing ‘mostly sunny,’ which…
Hazy sunshine this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, but from all appearances so far this morning, we might have a full day of clear, or ‘mostly‘ clear skies, and if like previous days, a good wind is due up this afternoon, carrying some sharp, chilled gusts. The NWS calls for ‘mostly sunny‘ the rest…
In a flight of American history, today is the 40th anniversary of the fall of Saigon, actually bringing to a shitty end America’s shitty experience in Vietnam — iconic photos of helicopters lifting people off US embassy rooftops a reminder a generation later that war don’t work. Last month, three physician groups released a report,…
“Congress makes me vomit.” — Josh Lyman, “The West Wing“ Binged-watched the first four/five seasons of the political fantasy last week via Netflix, though, blowing chunks off a bile-infested Congress is indeed gut-wrenching, Josh’s digestive-system could easily have been reacting to a shitload of public plates full of noxious offerings. Nowadays with horror-shit at every…
Overcast this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and from my little back-patio perspective, looks like some patchy ground fog, too. Earlier, the NWS also nailed our situation just about right with a forecast of ‘becoming sunny‘ for today — if conditions continue. Sunshine yesterday afternoon was a bit tepid, but par for the course,…
Ominous clouds approaching-thickly from the east this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, but around my apartment right now the sky is near-clear with just a wisp of white vapor way up — supposedly another nice day ahead. First, though, we’re most-likely going to get heavy-hammered with ground fog, which should burn off before noon,…
Reality will never actually leave George W. Bush alone, the destruction and waste created from scratch will continue to thrive, the denial of accountability a way-shitty sting to America’s self esteem as conjured-up to the world. One wonders if Americans care to understand — from the History News Network dated Nov. 6, 2008: In an informal survey…
A bit of sunshine this Thursday morning on California’s north coast, with some nice breaks in the lately-accustomed fog/cloud routine. Just returned from a walking trip to Safeway, and maybe the bright is here for awhile. Mankind is apparently composed of horribly-ironic idiots. Just yesterday, coinciding with Earth Day, a load of internationally-known brainiacs issued…
Thick ground fog again this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, a routine now as per about-normal for spring and early-approach to summer. Seasons are quick nowadays it seems, hard to believe we’re closing in on the end of April — 2015, where art thou gone? Across the vast Pacific, time quickens, too. And possibly…
Overcast this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, supposedly the rain is gone until the weekend, but those thick, gray clouds hovering overhead right now look more than just a little rain-threatening. The NWS is calling today ‘mostly sunny,’ which is way better than mostly good, as I’m currently without wheels, two-footing it to Safeway…
