War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Overcast still, but no rain showers, though, dark as shit in the early afternoon. Modern life sometimes appears asshole-contradictory — Cheetah this: A study found that the violence displayed by chimpanzees was not caused by human disturbances, but rather the behavior is innate to the species. We don’t corrupt everything on this planet, just mostly…
Sharp, peek-a-boo sunshine this Thursday morning here on California’s north coast, with some thick-shadowed clouds lurking about — we’re forecast for more rain today, mostly in the AM, but this being a narrow shoreline zone, weather can become ordinary-irregular real quick, though, we’re predicted to get maybe a tenth-to-quarter-of-an-inch. The only early rainfall count I…
Sunshine this early Tuesday is filtered by what weather folks call ‘haze,’ but it’s just low clouds blocking a bright morning here on California’s north coast. Just a little bit ago skies were clear. We be robbed of a rare, thunderous sunrise — shoreline shifts sometimes suck. And more fire in the air — in…
Deep, thick-damp fog this early Sunday on California’s north coast — all-gray without not much sound, either. Looking back on this past week, lost in the news shuffle, which included ‘official‘ declaration of another endless war, and sunshine full of rare, double-dosed magnetically-charged solar particles, was wail of a nasty climate-change alarm bell — clanking…
Warm and comfortable this afternoon on California’s north coast, but way-warm just about everywhere else out here. The LA area is excepting a heat wave this weekend, temperatures in triple digits — this on the heels of exceedingly warm. From the LA Times: The first eight months of 2014 were the warmest on average in…
Dawn was clear and bright, but fog arrived silently to steal the thunder. Another Friday here on California’s north coast and this morning keeps the weather pattern alive — bright and warm early on, then sunshine and a brisk-chilled wind in the afternoon. As there’s already a shitload of crap news caused by asshole earthlings,…
Thick fog again this Sunday morning on California’s north coast, and although the song remains the same, the tune could change. One interesting note from the 6.0 earthquake two weeks ago (today) down in Napa — an aid in vetting ground water as dry streams get water for the first time — via the San…
Fog-city this early Friday on California’s north coast, and quiet — no sound from westward and the Pacific Ocean, either. Clear, crisp and sunny fall-like morning’s we’d had the past three/four days are gone, back to a our summer-extension’s normal of a sad-sack’s deep gray. And a drought-related bit: Appears less and less likely there’s…
Although summer’s still warm on the backside, and it’s only early September, cold weather is closer than just-around-the-corner — last month, old reliable, the weather-worn Farmers’ Almanac predicted, “…frigid conditions, bitter conditions,” for this coming winter. They prognosticated a similar prognosis for 2013/14, and were very-much correct. Two words with only one season’s worth of common…
Fog-bound this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, but just a wee-bit to the east are huge chunks of deep-growth forests, dry and waterless, and in some places, on fire. A moist shoreline and a tinderbox interior. Countrywide, a variety of weather shit, though, tornadoes twisted across diverse locales — a four-minute one early yesterday…
