Here on a bright Sunday evening in California’s Central Valley, a musical approach to one of the more-important matters of our nowadays: abortion. And yet, too, with a new voice from an ancient, iconic wonder, Stevie Nicks. Nicks has been a crush of mine for near-about 50 years. In the 1970s, however, she had to…
Bright, way-clear sunshine tempered by a chilly breeze this late afternoon Thursday in California’s Central Valley — finally a distinct autumn day. Summer this year has been a bitch — our hottest ever — and it looked like it would never end. Ending quickly, too, could be our environment, not only for my location but for…
Sunshine and clear-blue skies just past noon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley. Nice weather for an insane presidential election — way-beyond grasping crazy how close this race is even in the presence of someone that’s not only a deplorable, asshole piece of shit, but also freaking nuttier-than-a-fruitcake and freaking slobbering crazy — and it…
Our news cycle nowadays is shit-fire way-depressing, overflowing with outlandish circumstances and it seems to be getting worse.

Clear skies and on the coolish-side temperatures — comparatively speaking — here a bit after the noon hour Friday in California’s Central Valley as for the first time in a shitload of space we’re under 90 degrees as a high today, shaping up for finally a full onslaught of the fall season. Weather shifts are…
It’s sunny and comfortable this Wednesday early afternoon in California’s Central Valley — maybe autumn is finally here to stay. Meanwhile, the T-Rump is not only a lying asshole, but way-unaware he’s fully and completely dumb as a charred tree stump: Details via The New Republic a couple of hours ago: During an hour-and-a-half-long interview…
Clear, bright skies full of sunshine shortly after the noon hour Tuesday here in California’s Central Valley as summer days in the fall are maybe slacking off a bit as we make it into a real, actual autumn. Supposedly under triple-digit temperatures today (for the first time in a goodly while) and a reported drop…
Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the water: Details nutshell via the Guardian this afternoon: The latest system, Tropical Storm Milton, formed in the Gulf of Mexico on Saturday.
