Bush League Lying

Damp-fog of a marine layer this Monday afternoon, as bright, clear sunshine much earlier has been replaced by deep-gray, amplified in muffled tones. Beyond ‘Fat Tony’ dying and the ensuing GOP cluster-crazy over President Obama’s constitutional rights, was a truth-chime from The Donald among the chaos of last Saturday night’s Republican debate: “Obviously, the war…

Wave ‘The Blob’

Gray the dominate color and feel this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, a mood created by a sky of rain-infested clouds, and coupled to cold-dismal air.

Economic Eruptum

Just when you figured the freaked-out plate was full, from global warming to ISIS to Trump/Palin, now comes the cash-flow event — from NASDAQ this afternoon: ‘The Dow Jones Industrial Average tumbled 376 points, or 2.4 percent, to 15640, after earlier dropping as much as 565 points.’ Rapidly-tanking oil prices are sucking everybody down the drain-hole…
