War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Bright sunshine this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — a glare after a gray-cloudy earlier start to the day. Warming-up this week as our interior should near triple-digits, but still cool and breezy for us at the shoreline — the days go on. Despite the ugly politics and mass murder, which dominates our news…
Faded-yellow sunshine this early Monday on California’s north coast, the summer’s short wet season gone for at least til the end of the week, or longer. Supposedly an increasingly-warm few days, too — maybe 70-degrees or better by Friday. In light of violent death, these mass-killers cloak inherent intent in all kinds of bullshit. Thought-provoker…
Slight drizzle this early Friday on California’s north coast, feels like it’s drizzling rain all over the world. State of the killing union — via Dallas Morning News this morning: As they stood on the corner, a Dallas police officer came up to them and held out his hand. “You want a sticker?” he asked. It…
Sunshine, near-clear skies and some gentle ocean breezes this Wednesday afternoon on California’s north coast — a thick-looking fog bank hangs seemingly just to the northwest, but we’re not gray-covered as of yet. Experienced some laptop/InterWeb problems earlier, but a new modem fixed it — I’ve had the same one for more than eight years…
Sunshine with a bit of cloud cover this Monday morning on California’s north coast, allowing a clear, bright-light every so often, a change from the recent gloomy, overcast of the last few days. The NWS did warn about fire hazards in the area, retrieving the old adage: ‘Avoid throwing out cigarette butts out the window while…
Gray-overcast again this early Thursday on California’s north coast — sunshine supposedly later, but tempered with some expected gusty winds. Another day in the life… And ugly it can be — Donald Trump continues. A display of the overall repugnance of Republicans, this from Sen. Mike Lee of Utah: ‘“Hey look, Steve, I get it. You…
Drizzly-fog and gray skies this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and our weather continues its predictable unpredictability — yesterday, no sunshine until way-late in the afternoon. Most-likely today will be the same… Despite our air-wetness up here, last week’s Drought Monitor reported all of California still covered in some-type dry, and getting so bad California…
A dog’s life. The Corgi pictured at right is my daughter’s, Kuru, after a romp on the beach here in Mckinleyville — I wrote the backstory on Kuru last November. Read it here if you’d like, a dog’s tale. Point of interest for this particular post is tomorrow’s biannual Nor Cal Corgi Con 2016 Summer…
Bright sunshine and near-clear skies this early Thursday on California’s north coast, reversing trends of early-morning gray. Beyond US politics, after a recent binge-watch of all four ‘Jurrasic Park‘ movies, I realized nuclear power plants should also carry that same ‘Park‘ warning — All’s cool, “Until something goes wrong…” Case in point, Japan’s Fukushima Diiachi…
Patchy fog gray this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and if recent patterns continue, clear skies with a sharp ocean breeze by late morning. Beyond national politics, and the on-going horror of the “shit stain,” a big gathering this week in Oakland for the Cannabis Business Summit and Expo, and the possible pot legalization due…
