Hot, heavy-thick air this late-afternoon Wednesday here in California’s Central Valley — we’re right now at 104 degrees, with all indications tomorrow will be much higher (112) — and maybe working our way to the end of this nasty, cruel heat-domed influenced boil for the past couple of weeks. We’re in an ‘Excessive Heat Watch‘…
Sunset to another gorgeous day here this early-evening Tuesday in California’s Central Valley — we’re drying out in style. According to predictions, rain maybe this weekend, so all is clear until then. An update on my COVID situation, now approaching a full week.

In a must-read piece today by Robert Farley at Lawyers,Guns&Money, discussing the horror of the…
Beyond Ukraine this morning, but still on just how extremely awful are Republicans and why we’ll probably never get a true handle on the COVID-19 pandemic. This is a problem not of the so-called, and touted ‘misinformation’ tactic, but of plain-old out-n-out lying. Vaccines with boosters prevent serious illness, and even death — pure fact.…
In the genre of ‘no wonder,’ Adam Kinzinger this morning revealed what he’d tell his newborn son about the T-Rump: ‘“That’s going to be something I think in 5 or 10 years is going to be hard to explain, if you’re not on the side of truth … I’m going to tell him he was…
Bright sunshine, warm temperatures this mid-day Monday here in California’s Central Valley — another work week twitches to life again with various insane scenarios.
