War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Thick-gray, first-light this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — only the virtue of cool shoreline breezes keeps the lid on the heat. If one was to venture just a few miles inland, the temperatures could quickly go triple-digit. An old brain requires a cool of the coast — and my old brain also feels…
Ground fog and damp this way-too-early Saturday on California’s north coast — seemingly the most-dead time zone of all, that period of deep quiet and isolation marking a weekend’s pre-dawn hours. Everybody else most-likely asleep, like normal folks. In the wake of a federal appeals court ruling last week the NSA’s mass collection of phone…
Overcast, gray and gloomy this early Sunday on California’s north coast — supposedly, sunshine maybe before mid-day, but if yesterday’s any kind of an example as we received only a little peek-a-boo sun late in the afternoon, we can expect these Gothic conditions to remain awhile. So staying on the dark side of shit, more…
Overcast, gray and a bit on the chilly side this afternoon on California’s north coast. Sunshine aplenty this morning, all gone now. News item I spied earlier today, another one of those unpredictable side-effects of a warming planet — the Arctic’s permafrost melt — and another warning on methane release. Although not a ‘new‘ environmental…
A bit of sunshine this Thursday morning on California’s north coast, with some nice breaks in the lately-accustomed fog/cloud routine. Just returned from a walking trip to Safeway, and maybe the bright is here for awhile. Mankind is apparently composed of horribly-ironic idiots. Just yesterday, coinciding with Earth Day, a load of internationally-known brainiacs issued…
Thick ground fog again this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, a routine now as per about-normal for spring and early-approach to summer. Seasons are quick nowadays it seems, hard to believe we’re closing in on the end of April — 2015, where art thou gone? Across the vast Pacific, time quickens, too. And possibly…
Overcast-gloomy with lingering rain showers this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, which according to the NWS, will start to feel a drizzle-down this morning, with smooth, sunshine-sailing the rest of the week. So far into this new year, the weather up here has been pretty delightful — some days warm and clear. Wind makes…
An overcast, gray sky this early Thursday, with visibility here on California’s north coast constricted by a moist, dense ground fog. Wind will tell the tale of sunshine this morning — if a decent breeze arrives, the shoreline and thereabouts could get bright, but until then, a gloomy watch. Odd life nowadays has seemingly developed…
Bright and bold this Wednesday afternoon on California’s north coast, with the wind giving the air a crisp, spring-snap here not too far from the Pacific. Not-too-much of a snap earlier this morning — in fact, there was no loading to snap. As I later learned, my Internet provider’s apparatus apparently encountered some kind of…
Overcast with scattered drizzle this Saturday here on California’s north coast — some weak, pale sunshine occasionally does temper the air, so it ain’t all bad. Rain coming this afternoon, supposedly pretty heavy by morning and on into Sunday. Short-lived, though, as the system is expected to be gone before Tuesday. A sort of news…
