War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Death of history: a generation of memory — Greg Lake died yesterday at age 69: And today, John Glenn passed at 96: And so it goes… (Illustration out front: Vincent van Gogh’s ‘Old Man in Sorrow (On the Threshold of Eternity)‘ found here).
Sunshine bright and air that’s cold this Monday morning on California’s north coast, though, rain is forecast maybe by early evening. Temps dropping — the NWS calls for snowfall down tonight to 2,500 feet, with 1-to-3-inches for Berry Summit on 299, 1-to-3-inches at Collier Tunnel on 199. The season cometh, 16 days hence… In discussing…
Sharp, clean sunshine this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, way-chilly, though. As a former newspaper writer-person, reporting on T-Rump and his off-vibrates has got to be weird as shit — for the first-time ever in public discourse, lying is the new reality. Journalism has a challenge — CNN‘s Christiane Amanpour nailed the bottom-line in…
Rainy and cold this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — supposedly, the drenching will taper off this afternoon, and stay dry until sometime later tomorrow. According to the NWS, snow levels have dropped, too, adding to the wet Thanksgiving-holiday period. Weather stories are horrid all over the US. A heating planet, especially those record…
Overcast and cold this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — rain expected later this afternoon, and beyond some intervals of dry, our weather will be wet, occasionally ‘heavy‘ wet through Friday. Now exactly two weeks ago, life was torn-apart in a bigly-diverse way. And just yesterday, an indication of an ominous horror — we…
High overcast with occasional stretches of blue sky, but no sun yet. We’re supposed to be clear this afternoon… In living with natural weather, we’ve also had to ‘weather,’ as in ‘cope,’ with a terrifyingly-horrible presidential election cycle — all despite the reality. This morning, Commerce Department data showed a 2.9-percent annualized increase in GDP,…
Dark overcast this early Friday on California’s north coast as we continue through a series of rainstorms, leaving a blanket of damp on everything, though, no downpour right now. More rain expected later today, however, as the season continues… Unabated also is T-Rump and the horror of the loser. Interesting tidbit yesterday, from Bloomberg: ‘Republican…
Fog-bound once again this near-noon Wednesday on California’s north coast, though, the NWS forecasts today as ‘Sunny‘ — maybe later. This area is in the near-heart of the cannabis life-industry, so we’re watching the appearance of Proposition 64 — the ballot-initiative this November to make it legal for people over 21 to hold up to an…
Fog-city again this early Friday on California’s north coast, but sunshine soon a-coming, maybe… Yesterday, the horror-shit speech, maybe of the year: ‘“Sometimes, in the heat of debate and speaking on a multitude of issues, you don’t choose the right words or you say the wrong thing. I have done that, and I regret it,…
Sunshine rolling back the overcast this early-Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast — expectations abound for another day-gorgeous. As you most-likely know, last Thursday the DEA announced a forked-tongue, contradictory arrangement — despite supposedly a relaxation on cannabis research, the agency also continued marijuana in the same gene pool as like heroin and LSD. (Forbes): ‘According…
