War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Haze filled with rain blankets California’s north coast this Monday afternoon — light sprinkle it might appear at first feel, but this type precipitation is way-deceiving — it will soak you to-the-bone in seconds. And it’s a bit on the chilled-side, too. So the effect/affect is not altogether pleasant. In the news this PM, an…
Ground fog with a drizzling rain this way-early Monday on California’s north coast, and the end to round one of a not-so-fabulous holiday season. This year might be a crazy yuletide. Despite the expansion of Black Friday, and the swell of people in stores, the end result wasn’t so hot: Overall spending was expected to…
Bright sunshine, coupled with what I’d call a chilly wind, and we’re having another fine, clear afternoon up here on California’s north coast — this particular one code-named Black Friday. An example of loony-gullible and horrific life in the nowadays. Although top of the news cycle this PM tends to be of the ridiculous —…
High haze in the air this way-early Thursday on California’s north coast, a misty-fingernail of a moon is imprinted in the east on a dark background with few stars seen twinkling in the sky. Turkey Day it seems, or Thanksgiving to the historical clueless and dumb. The older I get the more I loath holidays…
A mixture of clouds and fog create “haze” this afternoon on California’s north coast, with sunshine every-once-in-a-while appearing through the dull. A bit on the cool side, but not unpleasantly so. News hounds are barking in a whisper this PM, though, there’s a hostage situation still on-going down in Inglewood, south of LA, two police were…
Overcast and warm this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — looks like it might rain, but that’s just near-natural. Clouds, but no rain in the forecast — typical for up here. News movement in the PM is much-about the same as this morning, though, one item appears to be gaining momentum — the bewildering…
Sunshine and a cool breeze fills the afternoon here on California’s north coast — another work week gets its legs. News on a Monday is always on the slim side — that’s why back in the day, daily newspapers usually carried a big photo on A1 to fill the type gap — which even today,…
Clear and gorgeous this Sunday afternoon on California’s north coast — a perfect view for satellite-tracking by the NSA. If they wanted, or had some kind of motive. A motive for the fictional ‘Enemy of the State,” the Will Smith movie from 1998, was the assassination of a US Senator caught on video tape —…
Crystal-clear again this afternoon on California’s north coast — and way-warm! A unbelievable 70.3 degrees right now with just a hint of a breeze. A kind of unusual day for up here, due mainly to the absence of wind, as the high earlier I guess hit 72. Tropical almost for the Lost Coast. And not…
Clear and cold again this Friday morning on California’s north coast as we prepare for the weekend — temperature right now is just a tad above freezing. Outlook for the next few days appears the same, nothing new. And today, of course, is the 50th anniversary of the JFK assassination in Dallas. Fifty is one…
