War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
(Illustration: Police escort children away from Sandy Hook Elementary School, December 2012, found here. And a shooting Tuesday at a high school in Oregon was the 74th such event since then). This is one freaked-out-crazy country. Terror in its real core is home grown, and the nutcase gun people have allowed the deep end to…
Clear and a tad on the warm side this early Tuesday on California’s north coast with another sunny and “hot” day scheduled for us — of course, the word, “hot,” being relative. We get warm real, real easy here on the shore. War in itself is horror personified, but yesterday something even worse, as five…
High overcast again this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we continue to plow on through the work week. Time appears to be moving faster, like water finally flushing down a drain, sucking quicker and quicker — until it’s all gone. The weekend will be here before you can say, ‘Shithead,’ and then we”l…
Overcast and a touch of ground fog this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and a warm breeze, too. The air’s not really ‘warm,’ but feels like it, though. In the atmosphere this morning, though, is a spirit or remembrance. Not only of things past, but what the past does for tomorrow, and what kind…
Once again like clockwork, high overcast and a bit breezy this way-early Tuesday on California’s north coast — weather for all its craziness, is pretty consistent up here, especially as the air heats. And heating up, too, is the way the Internet is reacting to the NSA’s ability to see, hear and maybe even reach…
High overcast and cool this early Monday on California’s north coast — time is a speeding asshole because it feels in reality like it should still be Friday afternoon. Reality in this crazed age is relative — depends on the mood. The resignation of VA chief, Eric Shinseki, last week is but a residue from…
Clear, quiet and seemingly calm this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — I say ‘seemingly’ because you really never know. First work day for the average asshole after the Memorial Day weekend, and shit is just as shitty as they were on Friday. Although I’d posted on this a couple of weeks ago —…
Clear and chilly this way-too-early and coming-way-too-soon Monday morning as we start our waltz into summer. Years ago, June to September lasted forever — now WTF is 90 days? And, of course, today is Memorial Day 2014 as we’re supposed to honor those who died in America’s wars — although the major problem right now…
Ground fog and a bit warmer than usual this way-early Friday on California’s north coast — and the weekend, for all practical purposes, is right around the corner. The corner being today — a blind spot still. Due to our constant cloud overhang, we might miss a big meteorite performance tonight and early in the…
Dense ground fog along with its deep quiet this early Thursday on California’s north coast, but if the weather trend continues, sunshine later with a gusty wind for this afternoon. Normal here, might not be normal there: A supercell thunderstorm drifted through Denver’s northeast suburbs early this afternoon spawning tornadoes and depositing incredible amounts of…
