War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Overcast and a chilly breeze this Tuesday evening here on California’s north coast — been rainy and windy all day. A dog walk this morning on Little River Beach turned way-wet, way-fast. We got drenched, in the chaos of heavy rainfall, we lost the tennis ball for Cowboy’s throwie-thingie. According to the NWS, beyond a…
Breezy, clear this early-evening Friday on California’s north coast — once again, low clouds/fog hugged the shoreline until about mid day, and conditions were gray at Little River Beach in the morning. Nice, and warm if you get out of the wind, in the afternoon… Hard to gauge in this era of lies and lying.…
Sunshine, thick-white clouds and a goodly breeze. The Little River Beach was superb this morning when I finally took Cowboy and Kuru for their walk — good time had by all. Meanwhile, also from this morning, and AG William Barr’s testimony before Congress, an obvious display of political villainy — Democrat Nita Lowey, chair of…

What a mess this country is in with the way-clusterfuck of the T-Rump operation — and a real-main problem it’s not just him, as shit does attract flies. I’m waiting for the sun to stay out for awhile before…
(Illustration: Pablo Picasso’s ‘Seated Pierrot,’ found here). Cloudy and damp this early-evening Saturday on California’s north coast, though, I could see the three-quartered moon out my bedroom window a little while ago, but probably not now. Showered on-and-off all today, with some heavy downpours mixed in for good measure. More rain forecast tonight and in…
(Illustration: Salvador Dali’s ‘Baby Map of the World, 1939,’ found here). Sunshine-warm this early Saturday afternoon on California’s north coast — drizzled a bit earlier, but still managed to take the dogs to the Ma-le’l Dunes awhile, but apparently should have stayed longer as it’s been dry for the last couple of hours. However, the NWS…
Cold and bright this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast with lots of sunshine, but chilled-out temperatures — high supposedly just 51 and down close to freezing temperatures last night, and probably again tonight. No rain forecast until a week from tomorrow… Way-way ahead of its time — sadly ‘only‘ two years ago: Some old near-forgotten…
Dreary, outside a bit of waiting-for-the storm weather this mid-day Wednesday on California’s north coast — the sky a deep and seemingly up-close ash-white, dusted with blustering winds, slashed on occasion by rapid-fire drizzle-droplets, heavy with anticipation. Yet the air cuddled within a pleasant warmth — all ominous ingredients for a bigly disturbance a-coming. Reportedly,…
(Illustration: MC Escher’s engraving, ‘Old Oliver Tree,’ found here. Dark-clouds-overcast this early-evening Wednesday on California’s north coast, maybe some sunshine expected tomorrow, but mostly for the next few days is more of our current and upcoming ‘wet season‘ — we’ll see. Out of season, and all reason is what’s top the news billboard tonight: a…
Way-appropriate emotional point on this eve of the big-bang Ballot Day:: Just the gut feeling — you want to feel optimistic, you want to lean-into the wondrous polls calling for a Blue Wave, but the anguish-horror of failure — if Republicans keep the House, and Senate, or even if the midterm is a return to…
