War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Clear and kind of warm this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast, the near-half moon hanging like a bright closet-orb seen from far away. Day-to-day life viewed from the stars. In a world gone bat-shit crazy, focal points are seemingly on everything except the way-most important — the earth that moon is still-shining happily down…
Another Saturday, another week gone-on-down the road. These past days, though, have been one for the so-called books; a near-literary, five part mini series starting Monday and ending yesterday, tied together by one crazy, weirdly-related, mirror-narrative of a most-violent future. A time-yet-to-be seen viewed in near-real time and from many angles — anyone with access…
Crystal clear this early Monday morning, stars twinkling and the air lucid even — far cry from when I dozed off last night as all along California’s north coast was turbulent weather. Power outages, fairly-heavy wind — a 75-foot fir tree was knocked down, blocking one road for awhile — and rain mingled reportedly into…
Raining again this way-early Friday morning on California’s north coast, and warm, too. We need the rain, and the heat takes the bite out of getting quickly soaked. Water and warmth, which together create a way-rainy future, as reported yesterday by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA): The study also showed a 20-30 percent…
High overcast this early Thursday morning, the odd-shaped moon hanging bright through passing clouds, its luster-orb seemingly out over the Pacific — feels warmer out than inside my apartment. Weather up here on California’s north coast has been incredible the last few days. There’s been some rain, but not enough to do anything, or even…
Crystal clear and a bit chilly this wee-early Monday, with the moon hanging like a white orb out over the Pacific. We’re forecast for some rain later today along California’s north coast, but we’ll just have to wait and see — weather here is always of the moment. Parsing through the news this morning, there’s…
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…
Rain, rain and more rain as the storms keep pounding us here on California’s northern coast, and the end is still a couple of days away. Right now a few minutes from the weak light of a dawn, we’re in what’s considered a light rain stretch, which in the parlay of the moment could mean…
A wild weather ride this morning as a big storm front is slamming into the northern California coast with winds already creating knocking noises with more to follow — wind, rain and fear. A West Coast sensation: The culprit is a weather phenomenon called an “atmospheric river,” which channels tropical moisture all the way across…
Overcast and cool this way-early Monday morning on California’s northern coast, an apt start to another grind-employment week, and a tale-tell online crank-off to cyber business. Disavowing Black Friday’s horror, and since consumer spending accounts for about 70 percent of U.S. economic activity, business folks are wow over Cyber Monday — even the day after…
