War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Overcast with some occasional rain this early Wednesday on California’s north coast with more expected today and tomorrow. Weather of the weird. Beyond the sprinkles, big coverage this morning, of course, is President Obama’s State of the Union last night — most of the commentary I’ve seen has shown it to be better-than-average, maybe the…
High overcast this early Monday on California’s parched northern coast, and after summer weather the last last few weeks, rain, precious wet rain, is expected this week — 60 percent chance tonight and tomorrow, and up to 90 percent by Thursday. We need it — and the nefarious workings of Republicans need it. Unable to…
Lo, and behold, Friday! And it’s clear and warm this early morning here on California’s north coast, with ‘weirding weather‘ making its play as right now we’re over 50 degrees and the forecast is for warmer temperatures today than yesterday, which was a surprise to everybody. On Thursday, freezing cold at dawn to a T-shirt-only…
Clear 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 70 miles southwest of where I’m at, but not many locals felt it, just a “short, fast jolt” if anything.…
We elect presidents in the hope the asshole will handle shit correctly, keep war and pestilence at bay. Some Americans pay more attention than others, and sometimes can actually see the smell — history provides the reality. When I started this blog in 2007, most of the subject matter was unfortunately somehow connected to war,…
Clear and moon-struck once again this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we bask in a spring/summer outbreak of warm weather. A stalled high pressure out in the Pacific has kept the state warm and rain-free — the first is way-nice, the second, shitty-as-can-be. Also shitty is the amount of disgraceful shenanigans eating up…
Clear and much-more chilly this early Monday than the last few days — up here on California’s north coast we’ve had unseasonal warm weather due to rain over the weekend, but apparently starting today it’s back to business as usual. No rain forecast for at least the next week to 10 days — a sad…
Yesterday was the one-year anniversary of the suicide death of Aaron Swartz, Internet activist and one of the builders of Reddit, who was then facing federal hacking charges. And yesterday, a fitting memory — from the Guardian: On Saturday, the home page of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was hacked, reportedly by the Anonymous group.…
High overcast and way-quiet this early Sunday morning on California’s north coast — we had some rain, and that some rain is gone. Although we received a strong downpour for a little while yesterday, the rain storm really didn’t do much drought-wise, and the dry burning continues — according the National Weather Service for this…
Drizzling rain this early Friday on California’s north coast as we finally get ready to finish the first full work week of the new year. And with the sprinkle, the air is warmer — which means a shitload. Beyond the quivering Outlaw Jersey Whale — a most-perfect notion of Chris Christie — the Senate’s plan…
