War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
(Illustration: Boston bombing suspects; white-hat guy still at large, the other, dead — found here). If those two deranged clowns pictured above truly are the Boston marathon bombers, that photo will become an iconic-terror symbol, easily understood and to become another snapshot in how dangerously-strange modern life has become — cool, calm, collected and total…
Here we are getting close to the end of another work week — overcast and warm this Thursday morning on California’s north coast — and life apparently has seen better days. A sense of rage against the machinery. The feeling a terrible end is just around the corner, but no one seems to give a…
Doc: Why do you let this cracker follow you around? Troy: He’s a good kid. Doc: He’s a wall-eyed cracker. Troy: He’s got no high school, man, he’s from a group home in Jackson — Doc: I don’t give a shit if he’s from Johannesburg. I don’t want to hear dune koon or sand nigger…
Clear and a bit chilly here on California’s northern coast this early Tuesday, though, when that wind kicks up later in the morning, the environment will get downright cold. Yesterday was kind of a shit day, huh? Authorities still have no clue to who and why of that Boston marathon bombing — although in reports…
Well, here it is again, another early Monday on California’s north coast with the skies nearly clear, and maybe even more warm than it will be in a couple of hours. And after a too-short weekend, it appears time itself has gone nuts — crazy being the egg that fried the golden goose. And speaking…
One recent political, ricochet-rabbit-bombshell has been President Obama’s budget proposal — bits of it leaked two weeks ago, the whole shebang officially released last Wednesday — parts of which include cuts to Social Security through lowering life’s expectations. Obama wants people who are getting close to being old to just change how they live —…
My daughter, Hannah, will put shame aside another time this weekend. She’s to perform again her stand-up spiel on crazed life, loves, and her wacky family — a performance part of the ‘That Time of the Month‘ comedy revue at the Cafe Coco in Nashville, Tenn. And a good laugh is way-much preferred than a good…
Friday already! Friday already! Time never stands still, but it seems to be moving at a faster clip than in the previous life. As a worker involved with the general public, a lot of people nowadays make comments on the express-train time travel moments of this modern age — one elderly lady claimed it’s because…
High overcast and a bit on the warm side this way-early Thursday on California’s north coast, though, rain has its smell in the air. I hope not — my Jeep is in the shop and I’m on foot for this morning. The news cycle continues: Repugnant story of the day — life has to be…
(Illustration found here). Asshole:Â 1. The anus; 2. A thoroughly contemptible, detestable person. Despite trying to overlook someone being an asshole due to some type personality disorder distracts from the point of labeling some asshole an asshole. Sometimes assholes are assholes because they enjoy it (i.e., Pawnee Councilman Jeremy Jamm). Others are assholes because they were…
