War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Thick ground fog this early Monday on California’s north coast, and the start of another work week, but not really for us asshole-retirees, since we’re already cruising in a thick ground fog. Not necessarily metaphorical weather-speak, either. Yet in reality, maybe more of a drift, less of a cruise. And maybe, too, more of bewilderment…
Overcast with pretty-heavy fog this early Friday on California’s north coast, but at least according to NWS radar, most of the thick stuff is south of Eureka, well away from us. Supposedly, we’re scheduled for a ‘partly sunny‘ day with no rain in sight until early next week. Yesterday afternoon was a rare pearl, though,…
Overcast with some hazy sunshine this afternoon on California’s north coast, but the light is fading, maybe indicating rain a-coming. Our pot and our pets; today via Quartz: With marijuana flourishing into a big business in the US, a new segment of the market catering to aging and ailing pets has been growing under the…
Thick and gray, layered-looking clouds cloak my little view along California’s north coast this early Monday — creates a gray, unimaginative wet perspective. Indeed, the NWS says maybe some light drizzle later today, and rain maybe tonight, but all rests on the word, ‘maybe,’ as weather is not way-totally predictable, especially this close to the…
A few high clouds and a small bit of drifting ground fog this early Saturday on California’s north coast — a semi-clear sunrise, but this close to the Pacific Ocean’s windward ways could/will quickly alter that scenario (I betcha!) in just a short-space of awhile. Supposedly, a nice-sized rain system due sometimes maybe this evening,…
Thinly-overcast this early Friday morning on California’s north coast, producing some faded sunshine, which is better than none at all. And the wind is down, too, also a game-changer this close to the shoreline — nice and warm so far. A decent-sized rain system expected by Sunday, maybe earlier, and supposedly could last until the…
Bright and bold this Wednesday afternoon on California’s north coast, with the wind giving the air a crisp, spring-snap here not too far from the Pacific. Not-too-much of a snap earlier this morning — in fact, there was no loading to snap. As I later learned, my Internet provider’s apparatus apparently encountered some kind of…
Humanity’s game: “It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you’re not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is…
Overcast and chilly this Monday afternoon on California’s north coast, dampening the air with moist, low clouds that appear thick as shit. Sunshine scheduled for tomorrow and Wednesday, rain expected again toward the end of the week. Dry changes in a routine that’s as fluid as a brick. In retirement now close to seven months,…
Thick fog this early Sunday here on California’s north coast, especially cold and damp near the ground, and although the NWS calls it ‘patchy fog,’ there’s not much patch in all that gloomy gray. Into the smoky-silver fog comes time travel. If I went back exactly 24 hours from this moment, what time would have…
