Tuesday Overnight Open Thread - May 12, 2026 [Doof]
From Amazing Nature
Tuesday night humor While golfing, a guy accidentally overturns his golf cart in a tremendous crash. A very attractive female golfer, who lives in a townhome overlooking the golf course, hears the crash and calls out, "Are you okay?" "I'm okay, thanks," says the guy, as he pulls himself from the twisted golf cart wreck. She says, "Come up to my home, you can recover for a bit, and I'll help you with the golf cart up later." Even being a bit dizzy, the guy couldn’t help but notice that her bathrobe was partially open, revealing what appeared to be an amazing figure. "That's mighty nice of you," he answers, "but I really don't think my wife would approve" "Oh, come on now." she insists. She was so pretty, so very persuasive, and the guy was so relatively dazed! "Well okay, but I'm quite sure my wife won't be happy with me" After a couple of gin and tonics, he thanks her and says, "I feel a lot better, and know that my wife is going to be really upset, so I'd best leave now." "Don't be silly!" she said with a coquettish smile, letting her robe fall even slightly more open. "Stay for a while. She won't know a thing, we can have another drink” then she asks, by the way, “where is she, anyway?" The guy replies, "Probably still under the cart, if I were to bet"

They are the same dog. Anna Puma gave him the nickname Soup because I wanted to name him Miso. So he is Saijo “Soup” Shiba (insert last name here).

China Eastern Airlines Flight 5735 smashed into a mountain at 350mph in Guangxi after the captain intentionally brought down the aircraft, newly surfaced data reveals.
Chinese authorities have known for four years that a pilot deliberately crashed, US authorities claim...took place after one of the three airmen on board shut down both engines & turned off auto-pilot...
Suppressive Chinese authorities claimed last year that releasing information related to the disaster could “endanger national security & social stability”.
...Intentionally crashing has proved to be one of the leading causes of plane disasters in recent years, reports say. It was the second most common cause of plane deaths from 2011 to 2020, Bloomberg reported.

Well, this is odd. Someone else using my nic! Which one am I?? It's a virtual existential delemmer.
Butt serially, if you add 'em up, I'd be up at #4. Which I think may be as high up on the sockpuppet list as I've ever registered.
The program that counts nics obviously has a bug. But understandable, as it might be hard to differentiate names v just adding up hashtags.
Mostly, though, the program owes an apology to whomever was #11.

The MN thing is always an interaction between air cycling up from the Gulf of America (warm, wet) and air blowing down from Canada (cold, dry). If the humidity and temperature difference is enough, the cold air can't hold the water, and whoosh! If not, it's partly cloudy today.

What kind of grass is it? Volunteer.
I have clumps of 'weeds' in places. They grow about 4 to 5' high in proper weather. Also if the weather is right they bloom at the very top with a golden pyramid. Looks like an Indian (arrow) headdress.

Yes, they have a sprinkler system. And I think they aerate once a year. Apply fertilizer maybe once a year...
They drive on it! Park on it! All the time!
They have 2 dogs and 2 rambunctious boys that play on it daily! Heck, the kids even have little 4-wheelers that they drive around on it!
And they've only had to mow about every other, or every third week.
My sh1tty pasture grass (and other weedy crap) grows so fast that I've been mowing every 4 or 5 days to keep it down. LOL

I don't think there's much middle ground, either Trump got us stuck in the Gulf or he's playing with his food, rag dolling them. I can't be certain, but I'm leaning towards the latter. I think he's trying to throw some doubt into the CCP.

Well, she started up like a champ and finished the front yard. In the back, on the third lap it died. Not a sputter or a cough, it just died. Back yard is on a slop and the new Watchman prohibits exertion.
With truck and chain (wish I had a winch) it took an hour and half getting it back to the garage.

The guy I got the house from never did shit but cut it. I asked if he did any treatments or anything special. He says, nah, its a country yard. I thinking ok, maybe I'll have it treated since I'm not the one that has to cut it, so if it grows fast screw it. I had it treated, withing a week or so it was a dust bowl. Huge patches of nothing. The weed killer must have worked, and the yard vanished. Country yard indeed. The upside is I got to see what was actually grass, lol. It recovered nice, but I'm not doing that shit again.

I've pretty much always had hats, though. Except for a brief period in college - I was walking to class and this very attractive woman admired my hat and asked if she could have it. I 'loaned' it to her, thinking maybe I could follow up on the meeting later. Never saw her again.🤔

You should ask the Dr. what difference it might make for him. I have a node (non-cancerous) on my thyroid, and the only problems I have with it are:
--The fact that it feels like I have a popcorn husk or something, stuck way down on the back of my tongue and it sometimes triggers gag reflex.
--I can't tolerate temperature extremes, particularly *heat* now.
--Metabolism seems to go up and down dramatically within hours or days.
????? I dunno....

Once upon a time I was the first on the air in the Midwest to play Joni Mitchel's Blue album. I introduced it to say the name of the album was "Blue," the name of the lead song was "Blue," the cover of the album was blue, and the LP inside was blue.
Actually got a call from a listener asking if the disk was really blue. Had to admit I made that part up. Wow! I had at least one listener!

My neighbors are decently spread out, but we all have the same semi shitty lawns, so nobody complains. The soil is a little sandy. The guy across the street from me did a new septic system. By the time he was done his yard was totally dirt, with all new top soil, new seed, covered in hay. New stuff grew, and a year later it looks like shit, like the rest of us. None of the lawns are actually bad, but they aren't putting green. Most have multiple shades of green.

We were on a regular pickup for a charity organization.
One morning on the day for the pickup the Danes had huge shit accidents in the house.
Hubby said for me to go to the USO where I volunteered and he would clean up the dog mess.
Well he put the black trash bags with the dog shit outside where the charity always picked the bags with the donations.
He forgot the bags of stuff we were donating. Needless to say the driver for the charity was pissed later when Great Dane shit permeated his truck, lol.

We lived in a suburb of Chicago several years ago. We had a lot of landscaping done around the half circle driveway. Lots of pavers etc.
I hired a guy to do the snow removal. I had no idea he was a drunk.
One early morning hubby woke me up and said all the pavers and landscaping was out in the street. He had to catch the train into Chicago.
Lots of luck finding the drunk guy, lol.
It was freezing but I got enough off the street so the neighbors could get by.

CNBC incorrectly reported that the Great Jensen Huang, of Nvidia, was not invited to the incredible gathering of the World's Greatest Businessmen/women proudly going to China.
In actuality, Jensen is currently on Air Force One and, unless I ask him to leave, which is highly unlikely, CNBC's reporting is incorrect or, as they say in politics, FAKE NEWS! It is an Honor to have Jensen, Elon, Tim Apple, Larry Fink, Stephen Schwarzmann, Kelly Ortberg (Boeing), Brian Sikes (Cargill), Jane Fraser (Citi), Larry Culp (GE Aerospace), David Solomon (Goldman Sachs), Sanjay Mehrotra (Micron), Cristiano Amon (Qualcomm), and many others journeying to the Great Country of China where I will be asking President Xi, a Leader of extraordinary distinction, to "open up" China so that these brilliant people can work their magic, and help bring the People's Republic to an even higher level!

My wife was diabetic for the last 15 or so years of her life. When she was finally placed on hospice due to her cancer, we went out shopping and she wanted ice cream, but was going for the sugar-free stuff; I told her to have to full sugar version...it's not like she should have been worried about her A1C at that point.

My uncle (husband of Dad's older sister), did a good job of saving up lots of money for retirement and eventual residence in a home, and made sure to have good ones (and they were not inexpensive!). He lived to be 98, she to 3 months shy of 101.

One of husband's brothers bought some type of long care policy for m-in-law. He was a smart man. That policy paid for her living inthe facility.
