War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Here we are mid-week again, with fog and gloom this early Wednesday, but at least we’re on the gravitational pull to the weekend. Hard-hitting environmental report came out yesterday, but if anyone has been keeping up with the situation the last few years, there’s really nothing new. The big question (though, with no answer right…
A bit foggy, but warm this early Thursday here on California’s north coast with the weekend now firmly in the sights — just a matter of hours. Beyond the crazed news cycle of more Weiner nonsense, the NSA still primed, and a royal baby George, the earth continues its rapid demise — and most people…
Crystal-clear this Friday morning on California’s north coast, and if my apartment neighbor behind me hadn’t left his back patio light on, I most-likely could have seen a billion stars. Even with a half-moon shining bright in the southern sky, maybe I’d have spotted two billion. We’re in the throes of some wonderful weather. Yesterday…
Drizzling rain this Sunday morning along California’s north coast as a storm front is making its way across the region — the next couple of days we’re supposed to get almost an inch of rain, though, more will fall in the interior areas than out here along the Pacific Ocean. Some good news, at least,…
Crystal-clear and really, really warm this Saturday afternoon on California’s north coast, and with a temperature right now of 74-degrees, this is the ultimate in summer — yet with summer still a couple of weeks away. So warm, I worked a couple of hours in my little back patio/yard area — cleared some weeks, dug-up…
Up here on California’s north coast this Saturday morning, outside looks deep-overcast, gloomy and gothic — a book by its cover? What you see might not be what it is, yet, at the same time, be exactly what it looks like, only worse. Weather has become more than just background noise. Under the weather, we…
High overcast and some low ground fog this way-early Friday up here on California’s north coast, and the air is fairly warm for the time. The weather has been about the same the last few days, although the sun did break through the cover late yesterday afternoon, the climate has been back to near-normal after…
Raining this particular Sunday morning and warm — the last few days have been exceptional, temperatures most-amiable and it might be that summer’s coming quicker than expected. Up here on California’s north coast, however, weather is of the moment, and we have days in January like days in July, which makes any kind of long-range…
Wondering a bit this evening, reading about another astro-podic close encounter of earth with a chunk of space rock, the one this afternoon ‘…big as a city block…’ glided past about 600,000 miles up — as Reuters explained: That’s about 2-1/2 times as far as the moon, fairly close on a cosmic yardstick. A space…
(Illustration found here). Clear and cold this early Wednesday morning on California’s north coast and although we experienced hail, snow flurries and rain yesterday morning, the sun came out later on and life was nice. Supposedly in the midst of a big winter storm right now, here along the Pacific rim weather can be strange…
