War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
President Obama danced and pranced on Friday trying to deflect damage on an image of trust, even in ‘confidence‘ for himself as president, washing the air with words meant to sound near-honest, but has become more and more obviously, embarrassingly-repeated bullshit. Then yesterday, in a stupidly-veiled attempt to rationalize an intelligence apparatus gone off its…
High overcast and cold this Friday morning on California’s north coast, a bit windy, too. Despite a grueling week, it’s almost over and the sanity-belt of those 48 weekend hours lies not-quick-enough ahead. Health shit again last night, this morning — can’t sleep and it feels as if I’ve been up since Monday. An emotional…
Clear, cold and windy this way-too-early Thursday here on California’s north coast, and the still-big moon hangs way-up high out over the Pacific. Winds are monitored to be between 5 and 8 mph, and on the direct shoreline, sounds even stronger. And one big, cash-wallop off the NSA bullshit — Brazil awarded a $4.5 billion contract…
Some ground fog and chilly air this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and although there’s a chance of rain this afternoon, we all hope the day will end like this week, so far — sunny and warm. The white stuff, however, is at record levels. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reported Monday the…
Clear with bright sunshine and much-warmer temperatures this afternoon on California’s north coast, the best day we’ve had in a while. We’re at 53 degrees right now, with a high earlier of 59 — rain is expected by Wednesday, but who really knows? Early this morning a shitty episode — some asshole pilfered the radio…
She would have been a neat person to hang out with, always interesting, always entertaining, conversations on a shitload of topics — if she could’ve spoke unfettered, and been herself. Emily Dickinson was most-likely a great self entertainer, too. Writers are weird, and poets worse of all. And just from what I’ve gathered about her,…
Clear and chilly-cold this early Friday on California’s north coast as we power-up for the weekend. Right now, we’re at 45 degrees and on the road to a balmy 60 by Sunday — the ice age has passed, for now. And in the contradictory weirdness of climate change, odd is normal (via Climate Central): The…
Cloudy-gray skies mostly this afternoon on California’s north coast, though, on occasion a splash of sunshine. Still cold at 49 degrees with a supposed-chance of rain tonight. On a warmer note, we’re forecast to be back in the 60s by Sunday. An oversea story perked my interest amongst the skewed-news this PM, one from the…
Clear and cold again this Thursday morning up here on California’s north coast, with the weather hopefully, slowly moving out of the news spotlight. We’re at 37 degrees right now on our way to a high of 53, and some rain forecast for tonight — but who knows. Beyond the chatter on the Congressional budget bargain-basement…
Cold and clear this Wednesday morning on California’s north coast as we wheedle our way through this work week — we’re just under freezing right now, but hope to make at least a 50-degree high later today. Just weathering the weather before winter. We had a power outage yesterday afternoon, so I wasn’t able to…
