War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
(Illustration: Vincent van Gogh’s ‘The State Lottery‘ found here). Time again fellow peoples for the nutcase absolute -nuttery of the big-bucks lottery — the multi-state Powerball has now topped $425 million and the delusional denizens will be swiping/jiving to the dreams of an idiot. And the bullshit lying continues: “We’re seeing brisk sales for this…
Another overcast early morning this Thursday on California’s north coast, but as the case the last few weeks, sunshine will most-likely break the gloom by noon time. The weekend now only hours away. Beyond the cycle of the George Zimmerman fallout, there’s continuing saga of the average Joe on America’s streets, caught in the watchful…
Overcast this early Friday on California’s north coast and here we are again on the cusp of another weekend — can’t get here soon enough. Time flies even when you’re doing absolutely nothing — there are two, and only two, major political parties in the US and one of those is nothing more than a…
Raining and kind of gloomy this morning on California’s north coast — the weather isn’t the only passing fancy that sucks. Reality and fiction are apparently one and the same nowadays. A shitload of people running this planet have major mental problems: Sociopathy is a personality disorder that manifests itself in such traits as dishonesty,…
Raining again this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast and the world keeps right-on skipping to a drumming noise on the roof, or is that the news media? As we speak (or write), Ed Snowden’s whereabouts remains a mystery — the huge, military apparatus of the US hasn’t been able to find the kid, mainly…
Overcast and a bit warm this Friday morning as we head into another weekend — time flies when given time. Today, of course, is the first day of summer — the Summer Solstice — and is supposedly the longest day of the year. In fact, according to the brainiacs, this day is so long it…
No matter how you look at it, the weekend’s over and we’re at Monday again — and typically it’s overcast and warm up here on California’s north coast with another work week staring straight into my face. And we’re moving beyond the half-way point for 2013 with asshole Santa Claus a distant, terrible memory. Time…
Softly, quietly raining this early Monday on California’s north coast and in the still-dark air there’s a sense that seemingly all is well with the world, and peace reigns from here to Timbuktu. Yeah, right! Beyond the Memorial Day services to be held all across the US, news junkies seeking a fix will have to…
Foggy and a bit on the chilly side this early Thursday on California’s north coast, no stars, no wind, no sound. So quiet, it must be quiet all over the world. Wrong! Much of the news recently has been shittier than dog poo — and a number of these items are headline only stories, with…
High fog, low drizzle this way-too-early Wednesday here on California’s north coast, creating a dull-bummer this morning, despite the speed of the week. Hard to imagine we’re already reaching the weekend’s gravity pull. And internal-combustion engines are not only destroying the environment, but is emaciating time: In the country’s most gridlocked cities, commuters wasted an…
