War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Clear and cold this Friday morning, but not as cold as it should be — this winter so far has been easy and mild up here along California’s north coast. Weather is like a successful restaurant — all depends on location, location, location. And just a short space away could be disaster. The upper US East Coast…
Interesting, though, I don’t know if it’s real or not — can’t read Cyrillic. Some photos of supposed-fragments off the famous meteorite that flamed across the Chelyabinsk region of Russia last month can be seen here (via The Reddit Edit this morning). And why that’s interesting, I don’t know either — just some coal-looking rock chunks. My…
Drizzling rain through a thick ground fog — this early Friday weather along California’s northern coast as we begin the weekend outlook with a throat slashing. Today starts the infamous sequester — run for the hills! Or run somewhere. Due to incompetence and nasty indifference, the US Congress along with President Obama are letting the…
Here we go again — another Monday morning here on California’s northern coast, facing a week ahead full of strange, wondrous and most-ugly shit from both inside and outside the noodle. High overcast with the near-full moon a puffer-ed, white eyeball staring through the clouds and occasionally winking, as in ‘wink, wink, nudge, nudge.’ Of…
Another Sunday morning, the last one of February, and the next few days will lead up to a new month but the same-old shit. On Friday, a legislative trigger will automatically snap back, force the hammer down and pop a cap at who/whatever’s in the vicinity – unfortunately, just about all regular Americans will catch at least…
Overcast, dark and gloomy this Thursday morning on California’s north coast, but not as cold as yesterday. No matter our weather, it ain’t nothing like the big storm getting ready to blanket Middle America with more than a foot of snow, and along with that, added into the mix will be lightning and sleet showers — whoa!…
Cloudy and overcast this Wednesday morning here along California’s northern coast, just a swipe away from all the nefarious shenanigans occurring all over the freakin’ place. Weather is not the absolute end being of life — then again…. In DC, there’s the end — most especially the offshoot of President Obama’s state-of-the-union speech last night, his…
Clear skies with stars twinkling this Tuesday morning along California’s north coast, and for some reason, the outside environment feels warmer than inside my apartment. Human skin and temperatures baffle the senses. Tonight is President Obama’s state-of-the-union, and all the pre-jazz on the speech seems to indicate an economical crock-a-shit, or how to spin away from…
Clear and cold this early Friday morning on California’s northern coast, and although rain has been forecast, hopefully today (and the weekend) will be like this past week — warm and sunny. Not warm and sunny in my brain. As any of the tiny, baby-handful of visitors to this blog already know, I’m working off…
Mr. George Carlin explains: “‘Older’ sounds a little better than ‘old,’ doesn’t it? Sounds like it might even last a little longer. … I’m getting old. And it’s OK. Because thanks to our fear of death in this country I won’t have to die — I’ll ‘pass away.’ Or I’ll ‘expire,’ like a magazine subscription.…
