War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Cloudy with a chilly wind this Tuesday morning along California’s north coast with some good rainfall forecast for later today and tomorrow. Unfortunately, my next-door apartment neighbor left their back patio light on and I can’t hardly see the sky at all. One twinkling star can maybe be seen way to the west. Well, what…
Slightly overcast this Monday morning along California’s northern coast and through the thin clouds stars can be seen twinkling high above — the start of another workweek and more deeper into the winter of discontent. I’m way-happy the Super Bowl nonsense is now history — except for those addled brains who will blubber of such…
Clear skies over the northern coast of California this early Friday morning, getting a way-good start to the weekend — and it can’t come soon enough. Although we have some very-livable weather up here right now, the eastern part of the country underwent a tornado alley run this week with an outbreak of twisters from…
Overcast and damp this early Wednesday morning along California’s northern coast, quiet and seemingly not a creature stirring out there. Maybe a couple hundred miles north of here, and a couple of hours ago, a 5.3 earthquake shook the Oregon coast, and although no damage was reported and I sure didn’t feel it, the reality…
The tragic death of Aaron Swartz continues to make waves on the soft, sandy beaches of the InterWebs. Swartz was only 26 when he committed suicide a couple of weeks ago when an impending legal case apparently became too hard to bear — a near-empty case until federal prosecutor Carmen Ortiz decided to use Swartz…
Cloudy and rainy this Saturday morning on California’s north coast, creating an Old Testament-gothic-like feeling of sadness and depression. Except — just now seen from my back patio, a small hole opening in the thick-cloud layer, sun streams pouring through in awesome Cecil D. Demille fashion, dramatic and soul stirring, even beautiful. Reality, however, burns…
Overcast and warm this Wednesday morning here along California’s northern coast — and deep in frustration. Last Friday afternoon, we were burglarized — the crank-headed assholes stole my new laptop along with a six-year-old Dell from up in my daughter’s room. The computers were apparently the only items taken, although drawers and boxes were dug…
Ground fog, but clear skies this early Friday morning along California’s northern coast, and it feels like it’s a warmer, too. buffoon Should be a good weekend up here, but back eastward it’s way-Arctic-cold for the upcoming holiday weekend and President Obama’s double-billed second inauguration — he takes the oath of office on Sunday in…
Foggy and way-warmer this early Thursday morning up here along California’s northern coast — no frost on the ground today! Yesterday, President Obama unveiled a massive gun-control agenda — and the shit hit the fan from all the crazed people who believe guns are sacred and must be kept close to the breast or else…
Clear and cold again on a early Wednesday along California’s northern coast and the news cycle this morning looks like it’s eating shit for breakfast. Gun-play at two schools yesterday, and this the continuing sad refrain from all these tragedies: “There were no witnesses in the buildings,†Greiner said. “Of course, it’s a tragedy and…
