War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
After a visit to the laundromat this morning, I put another $20 worth of gas in the old, problem-plagued Jeep, wincing (both the Jeep and I) at a pump price of $3.99 a gallon for regular — up more than a dime since the last time. And apparently based on the so-called favorable employment report…
Any half-sane person is by now sick to the bowels of the GOP — Mitt Romney won the Florida primary, but the question posed: Who gives a shit? Although President Obama is most-likely the most-disappointing leader in US history, he’s leagues above Romney and the rest of his half-assed, ignorant Republican buddies, as the above-mentioned…
Evening into morning — and everything is still dark. Some overriding health issues have caused me to have not a good night, thus, creating less-ability to compose coherent thoughts, and way-harder to transfer to blog lines (was about to write paper, but that’s so 1970s). There’s plenty out yonder in the big, wide world to…
Monday morning, and getting close to the end of another month — time flies when all kinds of shit are hitting the fan. Including this horror show in Florida — and I don’t mean the upcoming GOP primary: “As it was happening on the northbound side, it was happening on the southbound side as well,”…
Sunrise this morning was a cool blue eastern sky here on California’s northern coast — so far a much-warmer winter, and a much-drier season than normal. Old-time local folks say a throwback to the 1960s. And as a guy working a liquor store, people do discuss the weather. Comments border on the incredulous for the…
Using Osama bin Laden as a kind of verbal bookends, President Obama jumped on reality with a touch of a man-up pose in his state-of-the-union speech last night, calling on the US to “restore an economy where everyone gets a fair shot, everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same set of…
Subject to be most discussed this morning here in northern California — the 49ers loss yesterday to the New York Giants. Personally, I don’t give a fat-rat’s-ass, but this from fumble-bum Kyle Williams typified a lot of shit: “Everyone in here told me to keep my head up and it’s not on me,” said Williams,…
(Illustration found here). This morning just about everything I read/look at is pure shit. If the Republicans have one more debate I might blow chunks all over my laptop — the blow-hole event last night was enough to make anyone sick to their inner-most bowels with such empty, vain-glory bluster that anyone not of this…
No big deal — Mitt Romney wins the New Hampshire primary and the GOP whore-wagon grinds on to South Carolina, where the pack gathers for a nit-picking contest there on Jan. 21. The only applaudable event last night was the bottom finish for a couple of dick-Rick-bottom-feeders — Santorum and Perry — and maybe now…
On occasion being ‘under the weather’ can cut some of life’s tangled problems loose as when one is sick, nothing else matters but being sick. So, I paid scant attention to the two neurotic GOP debates over the weekend — these guys are after blood, and they don’t care whose blood, just so long as…
