Bright sunshine this early Monday on California’s north coast, and in the air, seemingly another warm day a-coming again today. Heat and the fall season. A fall, too, maybe, with the debate tonight at Hofstra University in New York between Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump — T-Rump to those he sickens — and the consequences…
Overcast in a thick-gray mist this early Thursday on California’s north coast, and although the NWS forecasts ‘Mostly Sunny‘ for today, we’re way-most-likely still hours away from sunshine. In an odd year for way-many reasons, this presidential campaign tops even all the weird, and has become more a black hole of fright than anything else — yet…
Reflective glimpse back 15 years ago, and sort of unknowingly encapsulates our current state of affairs: “The president was in a great mood. He had that George W. Bush strut that morning.” –Andy Card, chief of staff Also an indicative response to Sept. 11, 2001, was the widely-spoofed, idiot-influenced Homeland Security Advisory System coming online…
Sunshine and breezy this afternoon, but the actual fact is Donald Trump comes from a place where the sun don’t shine. In the summer of 2015, Daily Show correspondent Jordan Klepper placed the butt where it lie: ‘“Donald Trump could very well be our first openly asshole president,” he said. While Richard Nixon was more of…
Foggy and chilly this early Friday on California’s north coast — to the east, sunshine occasionally acts like it’s burning through the gray, but the little-dab of bright fades quickly away into a deep-shade of pale. Mundane, but easy weather here, while back east in the stomping ground of my youth, Hurricane Hermine is creating…
Fog-city again this early Friday on California’s north coast, but sunshine soon a-coming, maybe… Yesterday, the horror-shit speech, maybe of the year: ‘“Sometimes, in the heat of debate and speaking on a multitude of issues, you don’t choose the right words or you say the wrong thing. I have done that, and I regret it,…
Sunshine rolling back the overcast this early-Thursday afternoon on California’s north coast — expectations abound for another day-gorgeous. As you most-likely know, last Thursday the DEA announced a forked-tongue, contradictory arrangement — despite supposedly a relaxation on cannabis research, the agency also continued marijuana in the same gene pool as like heroin and LSD. (Forbes): ‘According…
Fog starting to burn-off this mid-morning Friday on California’s north coast. Yesterday afternoon was about as-good-as-it-gets weather-wise around here, and I’m not being flippant, either. No joke, only “SARCASM” seriously folks (HuffPost): “In American history, we’ve never had a major presidential candidate who fabricated facts with the regularity of Donald Trump,” said Douglas Brinkley, a history…
Sunshine this near-noon Thursday on California’s north coast, another day in the normal. Abnormal, however, is seemingly the worst adversary of America is not from without, but within. The world as it is — The Donald’s most-current bullshit (the Guardian this morning): ‘The origins of Isis trace back to the aftermath of the US invasion…
Sunshine, clear skies and a brisk ocean breeze this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — though a bit windy, still most gorgeous. Reportedly near 70-degrees here, but still cooler inland — Willow Creek only at 85 right now after triple-digits for weeks. In the region of marijuana and legality, there’s no reason for a…
