War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
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…
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…
High overcast and way-quiet this early Monday on California’s north coast. I can’t even hear the Pacific Ocean, only a couple of miles away, as the morning sound so full of stillness it’s kind of weird. We require some type noise on a frickin’ Monday. The weekend went terrifyingly fast even if I did absolutely…
Overcast and rainy-looking this way-way-too-early Thursday here on California’s north coast, and since I’m on foot nowadays, the wet doesn’t make me want to dance a jig. Rain is forecast for the next couple of days, so I’ll just have to abide with the dude. News shit sucks this morning — the same pattern to…
A bit overcast and quiet this early Wednesday on California’s north coast as we reach mid-week work style. There’s just way-too-many days between Monday and Friday. And speaking of ganja, especially up here in the pot-growing center of the entire universe, a bunch of well-respected economic brainiacs have called for the eternally-foolish, 40-year-old drug war to…
Clear and nice this early Monday on California’s north coast — the start of a new work week without much fanfare. There’s a lot to hate about Mondays, but the best hatred should be way-directed to just how short the weekend. The last two days were absolutely no exception. Too fast for comprehension — this…
Clear and a bit chilly this Friday morning on California’s north coast — the bright, disk-like moon hangs to the south, creeping westward toward the Pacific Ocean. And a surprise yesterday afternoon — rain. Although an overall light shower, on occasion I could hear the raindrops popping all over the place. No more wet in…
Ground fog and warm air — nice early Thursday here on California’s north coast as we hustle our way toward the weekend — just a few more hours and it’s Friday! One item I’d seen earlier this week, but appeared to vanish from media sight was a big indicator of how our envirnoment is suffering,…
Raining fairly heavy this way-too-early Wednesday on California’s north coast, but maybe the sun will show itself later, like it did yesterday afternoon — gorgeous and warm. We need the rain, though, and lots more. Quick snapshot of America 2014 from Democratic pollster Celinda Lake: “Both parties are universally despised. The best thing the Republicans have…
Clear and chilly again this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — mid-week weakly here. No earthquakes during my morning bath, but there’s been two little shakers since I got up earlier, and the movement continues. Fascinating life in the nowadays, huh? War in the Crimea, a big passenger jet still missing after nearly two…
