War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
An overcast, gray sky this early Thursday, with visibility here on California’s north coast constricted by a moist, dense ground fog. Wind will tell the tale of sunshine this morning — if a decent breeze arrives, the shoreline and thereabouts could get bright, but until then, a gloomy watch. Odd life nowadays has seemingly developed…
Bright and bold this Wednesday afternoon on California’s north coast, with the wind giving the air a crisp, spring-snap here not too far from the Pacific. Not-too-much of a snap earlier this morning — in fact, there was no loading to snap. As I later learned, my Internet provider’s apparatus apparently encountered some kind of…
Goodly-bit of rain this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, a hefty downpour in the morning darkness. This system has been a wet one. The NWS has forecast ‘mostly sunny‘ for tomorrow, though, and Thursday, then ‘partly sunny‘ on Friday, with more rain slated for the weekend. Surfing the news reveals nothing really new, other…
Humanity’s game: “It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you’re not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is…
Rain this early Monday on California’s north coast, the downpour heavy at times, though, not long-lasting — we could get more than an inch of wetness tonight as this last storm winds itself flat after three or four days. A minor ‘heat wave’ toward the end of the week, with temperatures supposedly up near the…
Overcast with a touch of ground fog this early Friday on California’s north coast — rain expected by this afternoon (or maybe drizzle) and at least some showers on-and-off maybe through the middle of next week. Apparently, today is special — beyond humanity’s metal-grinding influence, a trio of so-called ‘celestial’ events will mark the time;…
High overcast with sunshine this Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast, though, a porous/moist gray blanket hanging just in sight west of my apartment indicates most-likely heavy shoreline fog closer to the ocean. Rain still on for the weekend, supposedly. No inkling earlier today was a heinous-celebratory one — the 12th anniversary of the US…
Bright, wind-blown sunshine this Wednesday afternoon along a small patch of California’s north coast — clear til the weekend, supposedly, then rain on-and-off until the middle of next week. Posting later than normal during the work week — sometimes plotting the narrative along current events can be overwhelming, especially in an age where a shitload…
Overcast and dark this way-too-early Tuesday on California’s north coast — supposedly, we’re to get sunshine today, but who’s yet to know? A goodly rain due by late Friday, and hopefully some decent weather between now and then. In some parts of California, ‘decent’ weather is considered not-so-hot — runners in yesterday’s LA Marathon sweltered in…
Overcast and chilly this Monday afternoon on California’s north coast, dampening the air with moist, low clouds that appear thick as shit. Sunshine scheduled for tomorrow and Wednesday, rain expected again toward the end of the week. Dry changes in a routine that’s as fluid as a brick. In retirement now close to seven months,…
