Saturday Night "Club ONT" September 20, 2025 [The 3 Ds]
Saturday Night Jokes and Other Funnies In a Los Angeles hospital, an elderly man lay on his deathbed, surrounded by his wife, three kids, and a hospital nurse. With a deep breath, he began speaking: "Bill, you get the Beverly Hills houses. Mary, the offices in the Center Center are yours. Debra, the apartments over the L.A. Plaza are all yours. And my dear wife, you take all the residential buildings near downtown." The nurse, wide-eyed, said to wife, "Wow, your husband must have been an incredible man to amass so much Los Angeles property to leave behind." The wife sighed and replied, "What property? The guy had a paper route!" ***** A high school multiple choice exam required only Yes or No answers. One of the students taking the test flips a coin and marks his answers based on how it lands. The teacher is clearly amused but doesn't say anything thinking that the student will be done soon. An hour goes by, and everybody is finished except for the kid who is still flipping the coin. The teacher approaches him, and asks: "How come you're not done yet?" "The student replies: "I'm double checking my answers."
Drink of the Night
In the United States, typical Oktoberfest beers are most similar to a Märzen, which is an amber lager that’s brewed in spring and aged until fall. These use caramel malts that lead to beers on the sweeter, more full-bodied side of lager styles. It’s also the style that was served in Munich up until the 1970s. *** Munich’s Oktoberfest beers have changed more than once over the centuries. The first Oktoberfest beers were closer to a Dunkel, which is a dark lager. In the 1870s, paler malts became more common, and the Märzen was most typical. A century later, it lightened even more to the golden Festbiers served at the festival today. Officially speaking, there is actually a very limited number of true Oktoberfest beers, despite what store shelves may lead on. In the European Union, “Oktoberfestbier” has protected geographical indication status earned in 2022 that specifies a narrow range of original gravity, color, bitterness and alcohol content. Additionally, only Munich breweries can market as an “Oktoberfestbier.”Much more at the link! What are your favorite Oktoberfest beers here in the States? Sam Adams, Yuengling, and Shiner all make outstanding Oktobertfest / Octoberfest beers. Who else? ----- Playing card drinks will return next week. Or the following week. Nobody knows exactly when. Do you remember where we left off?

Club ONT Crime Blotter Pennsylvania man stabbed with samurai sword during home invasion attempt
A Pennsylvania robbery suspect was hospitalized after being stabbed with a samurai sword during a home invasion Tuesday morning, authorities said in press release. The suspect, identified as Marcus Armstrong, 35, attempted to rob two people, a man and a woman, outside of a Norristown home, according to Norristown police. Police told ABC News' Philadelphia station WPVI that Armstrong forced his way into the Norristown home, where he encountered the male victim armed with a samurai sword. Police followed a trail of blood dotted with evidence from the crime scene to where they found Armstrong, authorities said. He was found by police with a severe cut.
Club ONT Department of the Dodo Apparently a company called Colossal Biosciences located in Dallas is working to bring the back the Dodo bird. Colossal Advances Dodo De-Extinction with Significant, World’s First Breakthrough in Pigeon PGCs and Secures an Additional $120M in Funding for Species Expansion
[T]he funding allows for the expansion of Colossal's Avian Genetics Group who also have established a flock of gene-edited chickens that will serve as potential surrogates for dodos and other endangered bird species and generated new genomic resources for exotic and endangered pigeons that will facilitate identification of editing priorities for the dodo de-extinction project. These advances significantly accelerate progress toward dodo de-extinction and broaden tools for advancing biodiversity conservation for birds. The advances Colossal has made now extend avian PGC culture technology beyond chicken and geese, opening a new frontier in avian reproductive science. Colossal has also announced the formation of the Mauritius Dodo Advisory Committee, a board of qualified individuals with deep connections to the country's culture. The experts will continue to provide input on Colossal’s local conservation efforts and aid in the development of a dodo rewilding program in Mauritius.What could possibly go wrong? Nice to know that all the other world's problems have been solved and we have plenty of money available to resurrect a flightless bird.
Lutkenhaus booked his worlds slot by finishing second to Donavan Brazier in the U.S. qualifiers last month, clocking a scarcely credible 1:42.27 in the process. That took more than three seconds off his personal best and was more than a second faster than the previous under-18 world best set by Kenya’s Timothy Kitum at the 2012 Olympics. It is the fourth-fastest 800 ever run by an American and the joint 18th-fastest by anyone.Go get 'em kid! *** This is one helluva flex.

About 10:20 Reinhard comes up to me and ask can I life 25 kg and I say sure. So he has me take off my suit coat and follow him. It is to a beer truck and they load a keg of maybe 7 or 8 gallons on my shoulder.
I haul back to the booth. At about 10:50 the biermeister comes to our booth and taps the keg.
We did that every day for 4 days.
It was a local Alt, meaning old beer that was much like a shiner bock with less carbonation and sweeter.

Happy hour at a gasthaus pre-Euro the beer was inexpensive, under a dollar in American money. 8 bucks for a case of 20 delivered. But on tap it was really good. Huge cloud of foam, pale cloudy amber, slightly bitter but a kind of banana clove aftertaste.

There is a bakery in Fort Worth called The Swiss Pastry Shop which makes a killer cake that I want to bring to share with everyone - this is a uniquely FTW confection.
Paul and I will be coming down on Thursday night with a couple of half-sheet cakes in tow. Unfortunately, the refrigerator in our hotel room will not be large enough to hold them, and there isn't going to be any extra space at the ranch.
We will be staying at the Comfort Inn and Suites. Is there anyone who might be able to store a portion of these cakes in their hotel fridge until Friday/Saturday?
I normally bring cupcakes, but we had this cake (which is gluten free) at our anniversary party, and since it is unique to Fort Worth, we wanted to share it with everyone at the MoMe this year.
You can either let me know here or you can send me an email at teresa.hamilton.koch at the gmail thingie. Thanks in advance!

Baseball similar to the Harlem Globetrotters. But both teams are trying to win. 11 rules. Two hour time limit. No bunting. If a fan catches a foul ball on the fly, the batter is out. Hugely interactive.
Oh, yeah. They sold out both nights in Seattle. 47,000 seats. Tickets $40, $50, or $60 each.
They sold out a college football stadium at 81,000 seats.

Spent a good part of Friday at the orthopedic center with a bunch of doctors trying to figure out why left arm is stupid. Torn rotator cuff is a given but there is something else going on that has been causing some stuff.
Turns out degenerative disc disease doesn't just affect the lower spine. This promises to be a major pain the ass. Or neck.

Saturn opposition is tonight at 1:45AM EDT (05:45Z). At opposition, a planet transits at just about solar midnight. With DST, that adds 1 hour, so local midnight is about 1AM +/- your longitude offset from your time zone meridian. For me, that's 1:28AM, and the EoT offset makes it 1:21AM for apparent midnight. Saturn transit will be 1:25AM, so just 4 minutes off. It will be pretty close for everybody here in the US.

We'll get one more transit, early morning of Oct. 6, and then it will be another 15 years before the orbital plane vs ecliptic alignment will be right to see that.

I wish I'd figured out sooner that all this stuff about women going for soft, sensitive, caring men was a bunch of feminist/faculty lounge/Hollyweird claptrap. They want protectors and providers who kick ass everyday to make sure they're safe and warm and well taken care of. Men who act like they know who they are, where they're going and are unafraid.

I can't speak for all women but, I think that's close.
A man shouldn't be *out to prove* he's a man-- he should already know it-- and behave accordingly.
Little boys always need to act tough; men just are tough, it isn't an 'act'.
Some guys bitch about being "friend-zoned" but don't they even realize that it's better to be friends first?

My late wife, I was friends with her about 10 years before we started "dating." We both had other relationships that came and went, she had even been roommates with one of my more significant partners.
These days, if I ever DO start up a new relationship, I'm damn well going to get to know her first. I can't see trying to hop into bed with someone, and then figuring out if I like her or not.

I just find it comical, that anyone is looking at what happened, and thinking Disney/ABC was PRESSURED by anyone to fire the guy.
Really now, these people are the most evil criminals on the planet. And they're more powerful than the President of the United States, let alone the FCC chair. They don't tell the bazillionaire oligarchs what to do. It doesn't work that way.

I really don't know what that means: Limit H-1Bs.

If companies are hiring you because the government gives you tax breaks to hire foreigners over domestics, then we have the same problem we always have: Government.

Once upon a time, minor league baseball was independent teams, in smaller cities and towns, putting together teams that competed for real championships.
Once the farm system was formalized into the structure it is today, the minors were just places where the majors put their players, so they could see who would and would not eventually contribute to the Big Club.
Players come and go, nobody cares who wins or loses. I know the last time I was an a minor league park, fans acted like it was THEIR team, but none of it seemed to matter.

Because no matter how much you and Ron Paul believe, the rest of the world has a vote and for the entire history of the world, particularly after communism was invented, other countries and movements will try to invade here.
This isn't particularly difficult to understand. Unlike libertarian idiots who think having a military base overseas means an empire, having a forward base to watch and deter enemies is not an empire.

You tend to strawman my statements, and whether it offends your ears or not, I don't care, but there is a WIDE WIDE space between isolationism and the perpetual warmaking we've been doing over the past 24 years.
Just to leave you as little room as possible, I'm going to tell you what I believe, take on my arguments or don't: We need a strong defense. Notice that word, "defense."
I also happen to believe we can and should extend our strength to defending the smaller, weaker nations in our vicinity. Which I believe we could do WITHOUT having troops all over the planet, in places where we are hated, MOSTLY because we're there.
