War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Deep-fog and way-moist air this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, as we continue the summer of heat. Asshole Jim Inhofe talking some heinous shit last week (Think Progress yesterday): “You know, our kids are being brainwashed? I never forget because I was the first one back in 2002 to tell the truth about the…
Fog-city again this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, a repetition of repeating weather. Cool here, of course, but seemingly nowhere else. California and most of the US are engulfed in a horrific heat wave, festering wildfires — update this morning on the Santa Clarita fire near LA: ‘“It has averaged about 10,000 acres per day,”…
Gray and damp this Monday morning on California’s north coast, another day in the life. A bit of guilt even as we cool here on the Pacific shoreline, not far eastward temperatures way-climb, sometimes 20-30-degrees higher — meanwhile, across a big chunk of the US right now, the notorious “heat dome” is frying the citizenry, though,…
Sunshine briefly, then a fog attack this early Friday on California’s north coast, and now an overcast gray with a chill to the air. Ironic, Orwellian-genre style: “If you want to hear the corporate spin, the carefully-crafted lies, and the media myths — the Democrats are holding their convention next week. But here, at our…
Rock and roll this Thursday afternoon — first time in awhile, an earthquake nearby. And not a little blip on the screen either — according to the USGS, a 4.8 shaker just southeast of Eureka, occurring at 4:09. So far, no aftershocks or any additional movement. Earthquakes are frighting — I was sitting on the…
Fog-banked again this early Thursday on California’s north coast — not to fret, though, sunshine and warmth will grace our locale, probably before noon. We’re chilled out here right now, but the US midsection is currently sweltering under a phenomenon termed the ‘heat dome,’ or just being way-sweaty, and way-hot. (Illustration found here). In our…
Cloudy with a chilly air this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — the weather lately becoming like the old, monotonous standard, ‘shampoo, rinse, repeat.’ The days becoming really similar — gray and gloomy in the morning, bright and cheerful in the afternoon. Not a complaint whatsoever. We’ve one of the continual most-pleasant weather situations…
Foggy-gray again this early-afternoon Tuesday on California’s north coast, most-likely a repeat of the last several days — cloudy/overcast until way late, then an anemic bit of sunshine before dark. Standard fare for the time… Another standard to the norm, Melania Trump’s plagiarism last night at the RNC — a view from Michael Gerson, former…
Deep, thick and drizzly-fog this early Monday on California’s north coast, creating most-likely another gloomy, gray environment for awhile — yesterday, no substantial sunshine until way-late in the afternoon. Cooler temperatures, too, in the forecast. Also forecast for today, the crazed-crank-up to the Republican National Convention in Cleveland — and we’re already sick of the whole-entire…
Overcast-gray and chilly this early Friday on California’s north coast, but the standard continues as sunshine is slated for later today, and warmth. Yesterday, however, it was well into the afternoon before fog/clouds abated and the sun shone — a hard push-back from the shoreline weather cycle. If Donald Trump is elected in November, we’re…
