War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Another Tuesday morning here on California’s north coast with some high overcast and bit of a chill in the air. The week keeps on moving. And the commuting trials and tribulations of Ed Snowden continues as he searches out the earth for a new home. Although he no longer has Russia on the list, Vladimir…
A bit of lingering fog this early Monday on California’s north coast with most-beautiful weather continuing on into a new work week. However, it’s pretty-much shitsville everywhere else. Nineteen firefighters were killed yesterday in Arizona — an entire ‘elite’ fire crew — and the western US as a whole has become no more than a furnace…
Fog mostly this Sunday on California’s north coast with a bit of sunshine on occasion, and bad heat just about everywhere else. And talk about a way-hot scandal — the NSA has become a rolling playbill of serious surveillance hijinks with a new episode near daily, complete with international outrage and screams of WTF! (Illustration…
Sixty years is not so long — I’m five years older, Ha! Chevrolet Corvette — It was a gold idea that almost became a disaster and now is an icon representing the best of General Motors. The car, almost unbelievably, has survived six decades and is about to begin its seventh. This weekend is the celebration…
Crystal-clear this Friday morning on California’s north coast, and if my apartment neighbor behind me hadn’t left his back patio light on, I most-likely could have seen a billion stars. Even with a half-moon shining bright in the southern sky, maybe I’d have spotted two billion. We’re in the throes of some wonderful weather. Yesterday…
Heavy ground fog this way-early Thursday along California’s north coast, and way-quiet, too. The usual noise from the Pacific Ocean, only about a mile or so away, can’t be heard at all. Up high, though, there seems to be a thin-spot in the mist as the half-moon hangs brightly in the southern sky — a…
Raining and kind of gloomy this morning on California’s north coast — the weather isn’t the only passing fancy that sucks. Reality and fiction are apparently one and the same nowadays. A shitload of people running this planet have major mental problems: Sociopathy is a personality disorder that manifests itself in such traits as dishonesty,…
News is hurdling along this Tuesday PM: Ed Snowden may now be a “tasty morsel” for Vladimir Putin, and much more; President Obama offered up supposedly a heavy-duty, ‘sweeping plan,‘ to fight climate change, but cited no patience for “Flat Earth Society” nit-twits; and the US Supreme Court reportedly “gutted-out” the 1965 Voting Rights Act —…
Raining again this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast and the world keeps right-on skipping to a drumming noise on the roof, or is that the news media? As we speak (or write), Ed Snowden’s whereabouts remains a mystery — the huge, military apparatus of the US hasn’t been able to find the kid, mainly…
Raining but warm this early Monday on California’s north coast and this whole week is forecast to be all wet. We all need the water, though. And meanwhile, the whole world has gone ape shit over those NSA disclosures of snooping on everybody and with the flying burrito brother, Ed Snowden, in Moscow, the US…
