Sunday Overnight Open Thread - March 15, 2026 [Doof]
Bar Harbor, Maine - from Maggie LuskJohnson on X
Florida Man's Crappy Plan Man caught on camera stealing septic tank
Surveillance video shows a man trying to steal a septic tank, then returning the next day and taking it after his initial attempt failed, the Marion County Sheriff’s Office said. Deputies responded on Feb. 27 to a reported theft at a construction site in the 21600 block of W. Highway 40 in Dunnellon, the sheriff’s office said in a social media post. “As you can see in the surveillance footage, they discovered that Alfio Nocifora had a crappy plan to steal a septic tank on February 22 with his 2013 Toyota Corolla,” the post states. The attempt failed when a Jeep Cherokee arrived at the scene and, according to the sheriff’s office, Nocifora fled. He then returned the next day with a rented U-Haul truck and successfully loaded the septic tank and about $2,500 worth of electrical pipe. Deputies said Nocifora covered the U-Haul license plate and identification number with tape. A detective later identified him, obtained an arrest warrant, and deputies located him in Citrus County, where he was taken into custody, the sheriff’s office said.News video clip available here
Guinness has recorded some strange records over the years, and Favour Ogechi Ani’s record definitely ranks up there with the weirdest and most difficult of them. Starting in October 2025, the Nigerian woman spent 70 days confined to her home, counting out loud to 1,070,000. Counting out loud might not sound like the most difficult thing in the world, but can you imagine doing it for up to 14 hours a day, 70 days straight? It’s the kind of monotonous repetition that could make a person go mad, but Favour Ogechi Ani was so passionate about counting and focused on breaking the 18-year-old record for the highest number ever counted out loud that she never thought about quitting. “Honestly, it was tough, but my passion for counting kept me going,” Favour said. “I had a lovely team supporting and cheering me up, and it was fun despite the challenges. My determination to achieve this project was a burn-the-boats mission. I never thought of giving up for any reason.” Starting on October 8th, Favour Ogechi Ani started livestreaming her daily counting routine on YouTube, which helped validate her record attempt. She also credits the people cheering her on as an extra motivating factor that kept her counting daily until December 16 of last year. *** The old record, which had stood for a whopping 18 years, was an out-loud count to 1,000,000, but instead of just counting to 1,000,001 and calling it a day after a grueling counting marathon, Favour kept going until 1,070,000.

The Army has officially adopted the M111 (and it’s practice counterpart the M112). May not sound terribly significant, but they are the first lethal hand grenades adopted since 1968. As many know, our standard M67 grenade works pretty well as a fragmentation grenade. Pull the pin, four-ish seconds later it goes ‘splodey, and sends out shards of metal in pretty much every direction. Basic, simple stuff. Unless you have to use it indoors, within the blast radius of the fragments. Fragments can get deflected, go in odd directions, through thin walls – not as much fun, right? *** Has there ever been a case of mesothelioma reported in someone sharing a room with an exploding grenade? (“Call Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe for action!”Thank you David for your contribution to our Smart Military Blog. Although you know which ONT host probably doesn't like this story?Okay, I know, walking into a cloud of asbestos particles to confirm cleared rooms repeatedly won’t do anyone any good… but it still sounds like an odd worry. Back to the M-67, it replaced the M-33 and M-26 predecessors and has been in constant use since 1968, an eternity in weaponry terms. *** Note the M-111 supplements the M-67, not replaces it. Think of them as – well, using your indoor voice or your outdoor voice. Indoor grenades vs. outdoor grenades.

Fast forward (actually rewind, but details) to Women's History Month at the White House (March 12, 2026). Melania hosted in the East Room alongside POTUS, and she went full fierce with an Adam Lippes Levi Belted Leopard Print Chenille Maxi Skirt. Leopard print on a midi/ maxi length? Bold, but no one is surprised Melania owned it. The skirt was paired with a what I believe to be the Ralph Lauren collection cashmere sweater we have seen before. The belt adds definition, the chenille texture is subtle luxury. The shoes are Christian Louboutin black suede Pigalle Follies 120 pumps. This look is “I'm here to honor women who roar." Adam Lippes has been a go-to for FLOTUS (remember that Inauguration coat?), and this proves why: American-made elegance with a wild side.
Shoutout to Second Lady Usha Vance at the same event, she looked absolutely lovely in the Marie Oliver The Paxton Dress. The high-neck, long-sleeve midi in a striking blue-and-white abstract zebra-ish print was modern, confident, and fresh. The pattern pops without overwhelming, and the silhouette is graceful for daytime White House duties. Usha is starting to elevate her style game, and she is also an adorable pregnant woman. Love that for her.
We can't skip the historic first: Melania chairing the UN Security Council on March 2. She chose a sharp Christian Dior belted gray virgin wool tweed jacket (removable scarf for options) over a matching pencil skirt. Peplum shaping, which is currently very on trend, black belt cinch, textured tweed, it all equals pure business chic. Dior + Louboutin heels? Unbeatable power combo.
Which of these looks was your favorite, are you Team Tweed or Team Animal print? ----- Thanks, Piper! By the way, if you'd like a sneak peek at what Piper will probably be featuring next week, check out Piper's X page. She's been posting Oscar red carpet stuff this evening.

Melania Trump and Usha Vance bring a touch of class to DC, and I'm happy to see Piper illustrated it. Of course, the MSM "fashion press" have to ignore our First and Second Ladies, lest they get kicked out of the cool-kids club, but I don't think either of them care.

Just finished watching a classic psychological mystery, Crossroads, from 1942. William Powell of the "Thin Man" movies plays a French diplomat in 1935, married to Hedy Lamarr (yes, her), and saddled with amnesia. Suddenly he is thrust into a maze of blackmail and duplicity; Basil Rathbone and Claire Trevor demand a million francs from him, because, they say, he was their confederate in a robbery in 1922. But he doesn't remember!
Or does he? Powell and the script keep us guessing until the end. It's a fine little B & W mystery.

Tony Bennett was in it, as I recall -- probably his only dramatic role.
The original screenplay might have been pretty good stuff from Harlan. But knowing his stories of how studio execs can ruin things, I wouldn't be surprised if there were too many cooks meddling in the production. Usually Harlan took his real name off projects he was disgusted by, using his pen name "Cordwainer Bird."

There were four of us in emergency having done so. Felt bad for a plumber who hurt his whole hand pretty badly. It was busy, so the gave us all morphine and stuck us in a corner. The three of us with hand injuries spent our time busting chops of the guy who stuck his foot in, like how can you clean the shoot with your foot. Actually a kind of fun afternoon. When I got home the kids and I went looking and found the top of my thumb.

I usually open the ONT every night and read through it but don’t look at the comments until the next day so it is too late to comment. So, pie from last night. Lemon Pecan Pie from The Hammett House in Claremore, OK. They serve it in a heated skillet with a brandy butter sauce with vanilla ice cream. I don’t know if mindful has made it there since it is a little NE of Tulsa. If you need another reason to go to Claremore, there is also the J. M. Davis Arms Museum.
I am going to make a trip to the Hammett House in a couple of weeks for some pie, with a side trip to The Amish Cheese House in Chouteau, OK.

I have been thinking about that - it would be like the Iranians to burn as much of their own country down as possible when they know they’re losing.
I suspect Trump is hoping they’ll slack off in threatening oil shipping in the Straits of Kharg is threatened, but I think they are far past any rational reasoning like that now. Still, it’s probably a good idea to occupy it, as well as a few other small islands in the straits (for strategic reasons)

Not that we are capable of doing it, we pretty much always were capable, just the White House and policy wonks didn't want to focus on more than one thing at a time. I think it was because if too much was going on someone wouldn't get credit for a success.

There was a joint US CA maneuvers in Alaska where the US troops went in when it got too cold, and the Canadians were left in the field to prove a point for the brass, and got lots of frostbite. And then the Canadian brass HID the extent of the cold injuries.

BREAKING: President Donald Trump is weighing a seizure of Iran's critical oil depot on Kharg Island, a move that would require U.S. boots on the ground, if tankers remain bottled up in the Persian Gulf, Axios reported citing U.S. officials.

IOW - Kharg is off the menu.
The next news report may be that an island closest to the Straight is under US occupation (and shitloads of HIMARS are off loaded) or Tehran has been taken.

I've been to RenFaires in CA, OR, and WA. All.of them at least tried for some degree of authenticity. This one seemed to be a carnival with a 17th century theme. They.market it as family oriented, which requires the rough edges of that time period to be rounded off which explains some of it. For instance, unlike others, they restrict weaponry to the degree that it's cartoonish, and they're pretty fussy about "revealing attire". The other is that is obviously a commecial.endeavor, and the assembly line nature is not well hidden. Very little of the independent artisan goods on sale showed any real artistry. At least the jousting seemed to be skilled, in a "WWE rasslin" sense.
For me, it wasn't worth the ~400 mile trip. YMMMV.

It’s important for Canadians to know that this was because Canadian participation was not needed and not wanted. And as for Canadian comments, if we want any we’ll beat it out of them.

The Hammett House used to print the recipe for their lemon pecan pie and for their German Chocolate pie on their placemats but the last time I was there they had stopped doing that. You can find the recipe on the internet. It is fairly simple. My wife baked it a few times. There is an orange pecan pie variant that we tried one time but we much preferred the lemon pecan. A word of warning, they have many types of pie and some of them are huge. The peanut butter chocolate chip is several inches tall. The first time I ate at the Hammett House, we were in town for an audit and the client took us there for lunch. The food portions were huge and covered the plate. Then they asked if we wanted any pie. We said sure. It was tough staying awake that afternoon while auditing their books.

President Trump does like some misdirection and doesn't mind if the rest of us are confused in the moment as a result. Whether he says shit, or quite obviously sends stealth bombers the long way around the world to give a false timeframe for an attack.
I wonder if we're going to find out at the end of this if he asked a friend to play a role that would in the short term require him to shred his reputation, but put him in a position to feed Iran information that lead to their entire leadership being in one place when we were ready to hit them.
I mean, it's a low probability guess, and I'm annoyed enough that I'm not listening to Tucker any more, but I can see *Trump* doing it.
