War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Bright sunshine and feeling warm — at least for up here along California’s north coast — and as it’s Friday afternoon, we’re way-close to the weekend now. In a pure instance of time-travel, mind-wise anyway, and I did not remember this at all until close-to-right-now — 47 years ago earlier today, Bobby Kennedy was gunned…
Thinly-overcast with faded sunshine this afternoon on California’s north coast, already mid-week — time flies whether you’re having fun or not. Zilch for humor in this CNN/ORC Poll: ‘According to the poll, 52 percent of adults had a favorable impression of George W. Bush, 43 percent unfavorable.’ Either collective amnesia, or there’s a huge-shitload of…
Overcast most-likely up there in the dark this way-too-early Wednesday on California’s north coast, about a 20 percent chance of rain supposedly today, tampering off to even less for remainder of the week. Along this same Pacific coastline yesterday afternoon, but about 10 hours and 600 miles south, ‘a pungent smell‘ stung the air —…
Sunshine filtered through a shifting overcast this afternoon on California’s north coast, thin-stringy clouds obviously propelled by a chilled northern wind — draft of which to an old guy feels more frosty every few minutes. I just might have to soon shut down my apartment’s ventilation system, and close the windows early today. Way-not unpleasant…
Clear and sunshine this afternoon on a small stretch of California’s north coast, a breezy wind keeps the clouds away. Last week, Gov. Jerry Brown set forth a self-proclaimed “very high bar” on climate change with some new statewide targets for emission reduction — in line with those adopted by the European Union last year, which…
Clear at sunrise, but now about an hour or so later this early Thursday on California’s north coast, there’s high-thinnish clouds filtering the shine, but clear skies scheduled for today, and supposedly warmer, too. According to forecasts, dry as a bone for the next week to 10 days — one word, ‘nice.’ Also on the…
“Congress makes me vomit.” — Josh Lyman, “The West Wing“ Binged-watched the first four/five seasons of the political fantasy last week via Netflix, though, blowing chunks off a bile-infested Congress is indeed gut-wrenching, Josh’s digestive-system could easily have been reacting to a shitload of public plates full of noxious offerings. Nowadays with horror-shit at every…
Hazy-bright sunshine the early Thursday on California’s north coast — supposedly more rain due tomorrow evening, and maybe on into the weekend. Mostly light drizzle expected, though, the NWS calling for a ‘slight chance’ of rain Friday night. No atmospheric river to be flowing forth. Apparently, the only thing flowing forth is warmth — figures…
Overcast-gloomy with lingering rain showers this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, which according to the NWS, will start to feel a drizzle-down this morning, with smooth, sunshine-sailing the rest of the week. So far into this new year, the weather up here has been pretty delightful — some days warm and clear. Wind makes…
Darkly-overcast this early Monday on California’s north coast as we get ready to finish another month in a rapid-moving new year. Expect rain late tonight, maybe on into tomorrow, then supposedly a few days of sunshine. Always good for any Monday is a good laugh to start the grind — this morning it’s a chuckle…
