Bright and windy this afternoon on California’s north coast, sunshine filtered by some high, thin clouds — nice and comfy with a wind break, otherwise, a sharp, chilled breeze will briskly-batter the brains. Based upon the supposition, of course, you have brains, and if you don’t… who’s got sense enough to tell? Even with just…
Hazy sunshine this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, but from all appearances so far this morning, we might have a full day of clear, or ‘mostly‘ clear skies, and if like previous days, a good wind is due up this afternoon, carrying some sharp, chilled gusts. The NWS calls for ‘mostly sunny‘ the rest…
Fracturing the ground again this early evening — a little threesome-swarm of earthquakes. . One of those was a 4.3 on the Richter scale, though, measured to be buried 6.2 miles down and about 170 miles south, southwest of where I’m sitting watching Netflix, I didn’t feel shit. Then 25 minutes later, a 3.1, centered…
Clear and sunshine this afternoon on a small stretch of California’s north coast, a breezy wind keeps the clouds away. Last week, Gov. Jerry Brown set forth a self-proclaimed “very high bar” on climate change with some new statewide targets for emission reduction — in line with those adopted by the European Union last year, which…
Once again the routine continues this early Monday on California’s north coast — thick-overcast, chilly and gray. According to the NWS, however, we’re supposed to go from ‘mostly cloudy’ today, to ‘mostly sunny’ tomorrow, and maybe sunshine uninterrupted through next week. Maybe does mean perhaps… Big news spotlight this morning is the crazy shit down…
Overcast still going on into the late afternoon here on California’s north coast, with some added patchy ground fog, only sunshine so far a hazy, faded-yellow glare shifting the gray every so often — a damp, shoreline chill, too, added to the mix. One item I haven’t been keeping up with in the last weeks…
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…
In the light of Baltimore and America’s racial tensions right now, the source of ‘cool‘ really not so cool — from Philosophy Now: ‘The aesthetics of cool developed mainly as a behavioral attitude practiced by black men in the United States at the time of slavery. Slavery made necessary the cultivation of special defense mechanisms…
Fog-bound and chilly this early Saturday on California’s north coast, now in the depths of the weekend. As posted here before, I’ve come to prefer week days since retirement — Saturday and Sunday seems to now only attract hooligans, and nefarious layabouts. And speaking of the coast, and more directly, underwater 300 miles west of…
Bright sunshine with a wisp of a cool breeze this afternoon here on California’s north coast — another weekend in store. As a retiree, I’ve come to appreciate the work week way-more than the next couple of days, and how a certain sense can maybe make no sense. So be it crazy (via antiwar.com): ‘At…
