Another freakin’ Monday no matter how you look at it — clear skies again along California’s northern coast with stars twinkling and the near-full moon hanging like a bright eye-hole in the sky. Although the serene scene where I’m located runs opposite to shit happening all over — more NATO troops die in Afghanistan, Iraqis…
Middle-of-the-week and time just keeps on keeping on. Opposite asshole bit of the week — US kids are too fat to kill other people. In a new report called, “Still Too Fat to Fight,†some retired military 1 per-centers whine young obese Americans are endangering national security: “It’s clear to us that our military readiness…
Clear skies this early Wednesday morning — rare up here on California’s northern coast. And what’s more than rare is reality. After all the bullshit, this is really what rings true: Given Mitt Romney’s limited intellect and his clumsy people skills, the odds are that he never would have made it very far in America…
Deep fog this early Monday morning along California’s northern coast — nothing unusual here, but along the Eastern seaboard and the Midwest heavy rains will soak people struggling to start the new workweek. However, the way the air has been feeling up here lately, we’re going to most-likely have a much wetter winter ahead. We…
Full fog this morning on California’s north coast, wet, moist and dense — real quiet, too, and seemingly surface-wise, so intensely peaceful. Beyond this little space, however, the rest of the planet seems to have gone coo-coo with a capital K. Including a different form of ugly protest boiling across the Arab world, this time…
Another Monday morning — Saturday and Sunday already a blur — and here we are facing another work-week with crazy bullshit piling up on all sides, the society of life is reaching beyond the norm. Yesterday, President Obama received an awesome bear hug from a Republican pizza shop owner during a stop on a bus…
End of the work week, and end to the this cycle’s version of the RNC — time for the crazy to go whack-o. Due to the storm created in my aging stomach lining, I didn’t actually see any of the RNC on TV — viewed clips of the shitty parts online — and from all…
I hate yelling obscenities at inanimate objects — makes me feel more of an idiot than usual –Â so I’m staying away from watching the RNC on TV, plus the whole event makes me way-more than slightly nauseous. Reminds me of a real-bad movie, poorly edited and way-badly acted. One case in point, which triggers…
Nothing more than nauseating — the opening live round of the RNC in Tampa is enough to make any historical sane person blow huge, bulbus chunks. After trying to watch live feed from CBS and CNN, I just couldn’t stomach these ignorant assholes floating around in their own waste — what a shame for US…
As Hurricane Isaac bears down on New Orleans, Republicans are still scurrying about like little kids caught with their collective hands in the cookie jar. All in the words: The word ‘climate,’ in fact, appears in the current President’s strategy more often than Al Qaeda, nuclear proliferation, radial Islam, or weapons of mass destruction. The…
