War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Heavy-overcast and chilly here this Friday morning along California’s northern coast, starting off the last weekend of 2012 — a year quickly, darkly. And don’t expect things to get better in three days — only worse. Faithful words via Mr. George Carlin: So the next time some asshole says to you, “I have a right to…
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…
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,”…
So wet and windy this early morning here along California’s northern coast, I feel like it’s wet and windy all over da world. Just a feelin’… And due today being today, everything is coming up doomsville: “The odds go up that we go over the fiscal cliff,†said Representative Rob Bishop of Utah, a Republican.…
Wind is really howling this morning along California’s northern coast, but no rain yet as we’re forecast as 100 percent today. Right now the air feels dry, the noise level high. Meanwhile, the US Midwest is getting thrashed: People traveling early for Christmas in the center of the country will be dashing through the snow…
Rain pattering down here this morning on California’s northern coast with a forecast scheduling thunderstorms and cold winds — same as yesterday, but here at the edge of the Pacific, Monday turned out clear, sunny and kind of warm. The rain today is expected to be heavy at times, even with some hail thrown-in for…
(Illustration above found via BagNewsNotes. Artwork out front found here). Up this morning in a sad, but way-pissed mood. And like Jon Stewart’s faux news, reality and truth is way-better explained nowadays from such locations than anywhere else — a mournful, indignant situation: Americans reported feelings of overwhelming disgust with whatever abhorrent bastard did this…
When a wee-young lad, I was subject to the now-ludicrous “duck and cover drills” in school where all us students practiced what to do in case of a Soviet nuclear attack. The whole scenario was way-stupid: The huge destructive power of hundreds of H-bombs along with the growing knowledge of the dangers of radioactive fallout…
Crazy-ass world we now inhabit — although it’s wet and chilly this morning up here along California’s northern coast, the weather across the US is odd-ball at best. An indication is snow fall — last March, Chicago got some snow, but now have gone 281 straight day without the white stuff, while slightly to the…
Using the old phrase most-easily this morning, ‘the sun came up like thunder,’ a clear and quick-explosion of light greeted the day here on California’s north coast — in the wake of last week’s way-wet storm surge, came also the first inklings of winter. Cold, clear and crisp, but without the rain. This area just…
