Clear and bright-as-mirrored sunshine at dawn this Sunday morning on California’s north coast, but the brilliance was quickly replaced by a deep-gray as thick ground fog rolled in from the Pacific — if you don’t like the weather up here, just wait a minute. Coastal regions are like that, staying the same, but constantly changing.…
Skies up along California’s north coast this afternoon makes seeing anything celestial a bit dicey, not there’s any reason specifically, other than more space-rock news, and ‘one strange asteroid:’ The Hubble Space Telescope has discovered a six-tailed asteroid in the asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. Scientists say they’ve never seen anything…
Oh, sweet, sweet Friday — high overcast with some twinkling stars visible here on California’s north coast this way-early morning as we prepare for the weekend. Look’s like somebody’s got a case of the Fridays. One guy who’s got a bad case of a the ‘second term,’ is President Obama — this year has been…
A faint rain drizzle earlier with near-balmy temperatures for the north coast of California this Thursday afternoon — altogether not unpleasant — but far, far to the west, mega-badass Super Typhoon Haiyan has clobbered the Philippine island of Samar, about 330 miles east of Manila. Supposedly, Haiyan made landfall with winds up to 195 mph,…
Fog again this Thursday morning on California’s north coast as we get ready to finish this quick-nothing work week. Middle-of-the-night health problems has caused a shit-feeling early, and the rest of the particular day I hope is better. We’ll see. A lot of shit is happening all over the world, but a most of it…
High overcast and light ground fog this early Wednesday on California’s north coast and the weekend is now within the mind’s eye sight.

Drizzling rain and a bit windy this way-too-early Tuesday on California’s north coast as we stumble further into the week. Nutcase times we do live in, as we travel along. Guns and more guns — in Denver, police arrested a couple of juveniles this morning after they broke into a middle school, and then created a…
Clear and cool this early Monday on California’s north coast and the start to a fresh work-week, and a sense of no telling what’s going to happen next. Quote of the weekend — from a new book, “Double Down: Game Change 2012,” about last year’s presidential campaign, and via the Washington Post: Obama meditating on…
Snoop-dogs ain’t no tiny wieners — in the Guardian yesterday: But the documents reveal, too, the darker side of the NSA. It is indiscriminate in the information it is collecting. Nothing appears to be too small for the NSA. Nothing too trivial. Rivals, enemies, allies and friends – US citizens and ‘non-Americans’ – are all scooped…
Early Sunday and falling back on time. Actually, I’m still an hour ahead, but at my leisure sometime this morning will set life right, clock-wise anyway. The laptop, though, is already set in reality. Day Savings Time is pretty ridiculous. And depending on where you live in the US, the overall affect/effect of DST is…
