War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Overcast and warm this too-early Monday on California’s north coast as the weekend now becomes just another episode of history. Weather-wise, however, we’re in for some neat times this week — forecast to be in the low 70s today, upper 70s tomorrow and in the mid-80s by Wednesday, and clear as a bell. A bit…
Bright and clear, a bit on the chilly side, but still a most-suitable Sunday morning here on California’s north coast. And a high pressure hanging out over the Pacific will supposedly keep us in ‘most-suitable’ conditions through Wednesday — yet who knows? Not when involved in a tale told the wife of Reginald Hargreaves. Yesterday,…
Raining and warm this early Friday as we grind down another work week and ready ourselves for a couple days of no bullshit from ground level. In the ongoing spying- bullshit from way-up yonder, and a sigh of relief: In a 32-0 vote, the House Judiciary Committee passed the USA Freedom Act, a bill that…
Overcast and rainy-looking this way-way-too-early Thursday here on California’s north coast, and since I’m on foot nowadays, the wet doesn’t make me want to dance a jig. Rain is forecast for the next couple of days, so I’ll just have to abide with the dude. News shit sucks this morning — the same pattern to…
A bit overcast and quiet this early Wednesday on California’s north coast as we reach mid-week work style. There’s just way-too-many days between Monday and Friday. And speaking of ganja, especially up here in the pot-growing center of the entire universe, a bunch of well-respected economic brainiacs have called for the eternally-foolish, 40-year-old drug war to…
Thin overcast and chilly this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — another day in the life. And this morning, if you’re able to view it, the Eta Aquarids meteor shower will bombard the earth with debris off Halley’s Comet — meteoroids the pieces are called — with an estimated 1,000 ‘falling stars’ an hour…
Raining fairly-hard this arrived-way-too-fast Monday morning on California’s north coast. Seemingly, time freaked me Friday afternoon; home after work, and without even a hint of a whisper, I’m like ‘Right here and now!.’ Clocks mark the movement, but actual time is really, really subjective. The old adage, “Times flies when you’re having fun,” appears no…
Rain and a gusty wind here on California’s north coast this Sunday morning — “unsettled weather” in that generalized-meteorologist kind of way — which is fairly-normal for certain seaside places. Wet, stormy-like conditions all over the West the next few days, especially up Seattle way. Meanwhile, far to the east and last night, was the…
Up until just about an hour ago, I was feeling good — the weekend with the sun shining and the air up here on California’s northern coastline warm and fuzzy. Until Greg Mitchell at The Nation reminded me that yesterday was the 11th anniversary of George Jr.’s horrifying stunt of “Mission Accomplished” jet landing on the…
Overcast with some ground fog this early Friday on California’s north coast, and still a bit on the warm side. Yesterday was another gorgeous outing — bright sunshine and way-‘hot’ temperatures, like maybe in the 70s. Whoa! And the weekend is near-about on us! Also falling fast upon us is the coming end of the…
