War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Overcast and warm this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — looks like it might rain, but that’s just near-natural. Clouds, but no rain in the forecast — typical for up here. News movement in the PM is much-about the same as this morning, though, one item appears to be gaining momentum — the bewildering…
A few twinkling stars can be seen this way-early Tuesday here on California’s north coast, but mostly it’s wispy clouds and an indiscreet partial-moon. Economics is pretty boring unless it specifically pertains to me. And this week it really does — the liquor store I manage will encounter a double shot this week with both…
Sunshine and a cool breeze fills the afternoon here on California’s north coast — another work week gets its legs. News on a Monday is always on the slim side — that’s why back in the day, daily newspapers usually carried a big photo on A1 to fill the type gap — which even today,…
Cold and clear this hard-to-handle Monday — having some InterWebs problems for some reason this morning, but we’re trying again. The weather has been absolutely gorgeous this past few days up here on California’s north coast, with more of the same forecast for this week. Not so for a big chunk of the US —…
Clear and gorgeous this Sunday afternoon on California’s north coast — a perfect view for satellite-tracking by the NSA. If they wanted, or had some kind of motive. A motive for the fictional ‘Enemy of the State,” the Will Smith movie from 1998, was the assassination of a US Senator caught on video tape —…
Another crystal-clear morning this Sunday on California’s north coast and if the immediate past is any indication, this could turn to be another wonderful, ‘warm‘ day — ‘warm‘ being way-relative. The mid-70s in temperature for us is a “heat wave.” Sunshine and toasty for us, but not so for a giant chunk of the southern…
Crystal-clear again this afternoon on California’s north coast — and way-warm! A unbelievable 70.3 degrees right now with just a hint of a breeze. A kind of unusual day for up here, due mainly to the absence of wind, as the high earlier I guess hit 72. Tropical almost for the Lost Coast. And not…
Clear and cold again this Friday morning on California’s north coast as we prepare for the weekend — temperature right now is just a tad above freezing. Outlook for the next few days appears the same, nothing new. And today, of course, is the 50th anniversary of the JFK assassination in Dallas. Fifty is one…
Crystal clear with bit of a chilled breeze this Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast — not a wisp of a cloud in sight. Typical day for these parts, bright sunshine with a little bite to the air. Politics seems the front-burner news item — President Obama dashed again upon the rocks of public disfavor,…
Clear and cold this way-early Thursday on California’s north coast, and we can near-about see the weekend from here. Still not close enough, though, to reach out and touch. As the the UN climate talks in Warsaw, Poland, dribble to an end this week, the counter-balance to life as we know it may soon slam…
