Drone On

Overcast and a bit on the warm side this morning along California’s northern coast, but that’s gotten to be fairly normal lately. A lot of shit has become ‘normal‘ most recently. President Obama nominated a couple of guys yesterday for some important government posts — one was a good choice, the other right out of…

‘Oh, lo’dy, lo’d, he’s desp’it! Do what he sayyyy, do what he sayyyy!’

Wet, chilly and highly-gothic here on California’s northern coast this Saturday evening, drizzling rain since early on, creating a sad, thoughtful sense of purpose. Surfing the news sites seeking attention for my seemingly near-insatiable, up-to-the-second addiction for current events, apparently life seemingly has flat-lined as we crawl out from under the hideous holiday season —…

Spoiler Alert: Crater

Clear and cold this morning along California’s northern coast, this the absolute-last day of 2012, which in relation to previous years, wasn’t all that great, and apparently won’t end graciously, either.

Grease

Another wet early-morn here on California’s northern coast and it appears it’s storming all over the US — back east, seven people have been killed, including two little children, as big winter-generated weather chaos churns through the region. And this is only the start to the cold season. In the overpowering ring of ugly in…

One Ammo clip in hand is better than two in the classroom

Raining again this morning along California’s northern coast — nothing to see here, let’s move along. Not so in the US Mid-west and South yesterday and more bad-weather shit is expected as the systems move eastward: Wednesday’s expected severe storms are “capable of producing more widespread damaging wind gusts and have the potential for tornadoes,”…
