No-Show Intelligence
January 23, 2014Clear and chilly this way-too-early Thursday here on California’s north coast — and apparently earthquake weather, too. We had a 4.7 last night, but I didn’t feel a thing — it was located more than…

Visitations of Insanity
January 2, 2014Crystal-clear and cold this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we transverse into a brand new, just-like the old year. We made the national news yesterday, and most-likely today, too. And it ain’t good…
