War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Ground fog this early Friday on California’s north coast — just a little while ago, the sky was clear and a full, bright moon hung like a porthole high in the southern sky. And for the first time in nearly 14 years, today, Friday the 13th — a full moon, most frightful than normal: The…
Clear, quiet and seemingly calm this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — I say ‘seemingly’ because you really never know. First work day for the average asshole after the Memorial Day weekend, and shit is just as shitty as they were on Friday. Although I’d posted on this a couple of weeks ago —…
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…
Bright and clear, a bit on the chilly side, but still a most-suitable Sunday morning here on California’s north coast. And a high pressure hanging out over the Pacific will supposedly keep us in ‘most-suitable’ conditions through Wednesday — yet who knows? Not when involved in a tale told the wife of Reginald Hargreaves. Yesterday,…
Overcast with some ground fog this early Friday on California’s north coast, and still a bit on the warm side. Yesterday was another gorgeous outing — bright sunshine and way-‘hot’ temperatures, like maybe in the 70s. Whoa! And the weekend is near-about on us! Also falling fast upon us is the coming end of the…
Clear and chilly this early Friday on California’s north coast — the skies are twinkling with stars and a fat-sliver of the moon hangs quietly out over the Pacific. We’re supposed to have sunshine and warm temperatures today in a typical spring outing for us up here. Shitty already this morning. We usually receive national…
Low overcast and ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, and a bit on the warm side, too. Another typical Humboldt County weather situation — fog with splashes of sunshine. Beyond the continuing news cycle of about the same thing — still searching the pings in the Indian Ocean; Russia warns of more…
High overcast and calm this early Friday on California’s north coast — the sky placid and easy. Weather around here the last few days has been incredible with tons of sunshine and warm breezes, spring has forecast its arrival — maybe. Meanwhile, back east in the DC shithole of government, a crisis is brewing on…
Rain and a bit of wind this early morning, but knock all the weather aside, the big event happened a few hours ago — a 6.9 earthquake about 70 miles from me. Seventy miles ain’t nothing when the earth moves. Along with the 6.9, there have been at least 19 aftershocks — the giant at…
Clear and chilly this early Wednesday here on California’s north coast, the work-week moving right along, though, not fast enough. News sprouting out this morning is fairly bland, or continuous-ugly in nature (i.e., the US farm bill bullshit) as the eyeballs of the world begin to sharply-focus on the upcoming winter games, starting this Friday…
