War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
A thick-drizzle and approaching dark-thirty here on California’s north coast — although we had a gracious fireball sunrise, shortly thereafter, a chunky overcast descended, and then mist, now onto a heavy drizzle. Although most-likely, maybe, the US (and the Democratic party) will get a grip on the upheaval that will be/ and is already resonating…
Cold and clear this early Thursday here on California’s north coast, a lightening-bright can be seen from my back patio, like a white bubble from the east. We’ve supposed to have a chance of rain, but right now not a cloud in the sky — last night was clear, too, and the moon appeared hugely-full,…
Way-bright sunshine this afternoon, and way-warm, too, at least here on this little spot of California’s north coast. Already the smut from a newly-up-chucked US Senate — from Fox News: ‘The Republican wave Tuesday could bring a gusher of oil down from Canada, as GOP gains in the Senate appeared to give backers of the…
A reddish tint in the eastern sky this Wednesday morning, maybe sailors and all Americans take warning — here on California’s north coast, most-likely overcast with late afternoon sunshine. Another day in the life… No so for the sad, dumb-ass US of A — apparently there’s a shitload of ignorant, clueless Americans out there, enough…
Overcast and some ground fog early Tuesday on California’s north coast — we’re forecast for maybe-70-percent-chance of rain this morning, and it could happen. Today is the $4 billion Day — in the weird, schizophrenic, and highly-amnesic US of A, the 2014 midterm elections. And we could be really fucked at the end of the…
Chilly-air and overcast on the first Monday in November — every once in awhile this morning, my little section of California’s north coast does get washed with some cloud-filtered sunshine for a few minutes. Maybe if the wind kicks up a bit, so will the shine. Tomorrow is Election Day, but here on the Left…
Overcast and cured with bit of a chilled breeze this early Thursday on California’s north coast — maybe rain, maybe not. We’re forecast for it the next couple of days, but it’s all blowing in the wind. Even in a whiff, it’s all crazy — CNN headline this morning, ‘Maine nurse in Ebola controversy bikes…
Thick, dark clouds this early Sunday on California’s north coast — supposedly rain is to slow today, down to cloudy tonight and back to fog on Monday. Just a respite, though, forecast is for more rain in the immediate future, maybe Tuesday. A little bewildered this morning. Somehow I figured Daylight Savings Time was to…
Overcast and chilly this early Thursday on California’s north coast — this week is blowing off the doors. And for the whole year, too. Today is special — Dictionary Day, or the birthday of Noah Webster, the guy who made the dictionary the dictionary. The first real, full-blown one was published in 1864. (Illustration found…
Good news on the 10-month-old legal marijuana sales in Colorado front: No mass deaths, and sales are high as a kite. Some interesting figures from research-land Colorado — sales revenue off recreational marijuana continues to toke upward, totals for August about $34.1 million, up nearly $5 million from July. And supposedly for everybody (via the Washington…
