War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Here it is, day three of the infamous Thanksgiving holiday blow-bust, and the crowning glory of the bird is yet to show. Landfill we come: The U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates that Americans throw away 35 percent of the turkey they buy, and that does not include bones. That’s compared to only 15 percent waste…
Howling weather again this early Tuesday morning on California’s northern coast as some big storms have pounded the region, though way-much-more up in Oregon and Washington states — what we’re getting here is most likely just flutters off them. Still ain’t pretty — we’re forecast for heavy rain and wind for the rest of the…
Another Halloween, but slapped hard by nature — there’s a few million US people who won’t be prowling the streets tonight seeking after treats. The trick will be to crawl through Hurricane Sandy’s rubble and stay alive. Warm and appears like it’s about to rain up here along northern California’s coastline, with the operative word…
Quiet again this morning here on California’s northern coast and the roar of the Pacific can be faintly heard in the distance — about opposite on the US eastern seaboard, where bad shit reigns (and rains). So far, not as bad as the picture at left seems to depict (via, of course, The Hollwood Reporter):…
Wet and quiet this morning on California’s northern coast — the damp due to heavy fog during the night, which left the air a bit more warm than usual. A way-different story to the way-east as some bad shit is about to hit the fan hard — the US mid-Atlantic seaboard is bracing itself up…
Overcast again this morning on California’s northern coast — even had some way-light rain yesterday, so maybe winter’s here early. Big news on the dipwad-cycle is the Joe Biden/Paul Ryan knuckball debate tonight at Centre College in Danville, Kentucky, and all eyeballs will be on Joltin’ Joe to see if he can gain some traction…
Clear skies and chilly this early Monday along California’s northern coast and maybe despite the calender, Indian Summer might still with us. Not so long ago, weather talk was a nice way to pass the time, a gentle way to bullshit without upsetting anyone, people all knew chatting about the weather was a pleasent non-controversial…
Overcast once again this morning on California’s northern coast and seemingly warmer, too. In this high-level fog, the air is quiet and still. Nature, however, is beyond calm. If we can move beyond the getting-more-stupid phase of US politics (i.e., Mitt Romney) and into the most-dreaded of upcoming events most are only aware on a…
Deep fog this early Monday morning along California’s northern coast — nothing unusual here, but along the Eastern seaboard and the Midwest heavy rains will soak people struggling to start the new workweek. However, the way the air has been feeling up here lately, we’re going to most-likely have a much wetter winter ahead. We…
Another way-quick end to the workweek and this morning along California’s northern coast is about like yesterday, and the day before, and the day before — overcast and moist. Yesterday was fog-laded and chilly — the sun made brief appearances, but was crowded out by clouds. Forecasts for this part of the US via climate…
