Saturday Night Club ONT - May 16, 2026 [D & D]
One door on the nearest end won't stay open so he gets the wife to hold it open. He closes the club to shoot a very low shot. Unfortunately, he hits his wife in the head, killing her instantly. Years later, same course, the man is out with friends. One of the buddies slices to almost to the same spot as before. They walk over to look at it. The buddy says he thinks he can shoot low through the building if the door is held open. The man who tried the first shot tells him to NOT try it. "A few years ago, I tried that shot and had to take an eight!" (H/T - LRob in OK) ----- A man received the following text from his neighbor: “I am so sorry, Bob. I’m riddled with guilt and I have to confess. I have been tapping your wife for many weeks now. I’m not getting any at home, but that’s no excuse. I hope you will accept my sincerest apology and my promise that it won’t happen again.” The heartbroken man, enraged, went into his bedroom, grabbed his wife, and threw her out the back door. Then he locked the door. A few moments later, a second text came in: “Damn autocorrect. I meant WiFi, not wife.”
Wisconsin Brewing Company will brew the final batch of Schlitz beer, ending the legacy of the 177-year-old beer that made Milwaukee famous. Pabst Brewing Company discontinued Schlitz in 2026, but the company is allowing Wisconsin Brewing Company to brew a final, limited amount of the beer in Verona starting May 23. *** Brewmaster Nelson will start “The Last Schlitz” brewing at 12:30 p.m. on May 23, and the public can pre-order packs of the beer. “The Last Schlitz” beers will be available on tap and for sale at the Verona location only on Saturday, June 27 as part of a celebration at Wisconsin Brewing Company.Did you even realize Schlitz was still around?
Let's look back at some old Schlitz commercials
First up - from 1977 featuring a moron favorite, Teri Garr
Here's a dramatic one from 1971
According to The Commodores - Beer makes it good, Schlitz makes it great!
Finishing up with a little Steely Dan!
So long, Schlitz!

If you look closely they’re not actually cameras, they are lights. The lights point at reflective disco balls

Management disclaims all woes come dawn—
The filters lost, the dances gone astray,
The friendships forged (or shattered) before yawn. Opinions here are chaos dressed as wit,
Half brilliance, half the bottle’s reckless fire.
What lingers in Club ONT stays hid…
Unless it’s gold—then we’ll retell it higher. So raise your glass, you glorious, rowdy crew,
Tip the ghost who poured your final round.
Sleep deep, dream weird, and wake renewed—
We’ll save your seat when Saturday rolls ’round.

After striking his wife in the head with his shot, the EMT's arrive to take her body away, telling the man that the coroner will be calling the next day.
The next day the phone rings and the coroner confirms that the wife died from a blow from the golf ball to the temple. But in the course of the autopsy, the coroner found another golf ball lodged 6 inches up into the wife's rectum. He inquires if the golfer knows anything about this.
"oh yea", replies the golfer "that was my mulligan."

Looks like I'm going to have to buy a new riding mower. I got mine back from being repaired again after I had to have it repaired and now it won't start. Fuel filer, air filter and spark plug replaced.
Putting new gas in it tomorrow and if that doesn't do it, that's it. It's 15 years old, hard used and I don't see the point of having to tear down the carburetor and/or the solenoid.

I don't think I ever did. I did drink Blatz, which (I was told) made you gassy. This was, in fact, true.
A lot of American beer back in the day was garbage and deserved to go the way of the dodo. Much better options today.

After market parts abound. It's better to fix the old carb - talk to AOP - but there are new carbs, starters and solenoids.

Schultz used to be the only beer on tap at the Billy Goat Tavern in Chicago. Schlitz and Schlitz Dark. I remember one night I was there and it was like an SNL skit. A tourist kept asking for different kinds of beer and Sam Sianis kept repeating “We have Schlitz and Schlitz Dark.” Beck’s? Same response. Stella? Same response. All the way until the tourist bus had to go.
For many years now they’ve had a self-branded beer on tap along with a few other brands that does not include Schlitz. I sort of assumed it was rebranded Schlitz, but apparently not.

INDIANAPOLIS — Three United States Postal Service employees are facing felony charges of official misconduct and theft after allegedly stealing cell phones and a Super Bowl ring from the distribution center on Indy’s east side.
When investigators came to the distribution center on Brookville Road to look into the thefts, they found one suspect wearing the Super Bowl ring.

Chip Roy is an acolyte of Ted Cruz from way back. I met him when he was first running for Congress. My impression was that he was a jerk with a Capital D. I voted for the other guy in the primary, but Roy had name recognition from owning a business so he won. He impresses me as all talk and no action.

1) It will crank but not start.
2) If I use carb fluid, it will run on choke but not full.
3) There's gas in the fuel filter.
4) When it did run there was a surging sound.
So it's a fuel problem I think. I've had it repaired three times this month and I'm fed up with it.

My ignorant opinion is that there's something in the carb. The gas in my area has plenty of ethanol, which was part of the problem when my mower did the same thing (but not the surging sound). I solved the issue by putting premium fuel in the mower and adding Sea Foam to the gas (after taking out the carb and cleaning it). That has kept the carb clean enough to give sufficient fuel to the mower.
AOP will likely give the correct answer soon enough.
If it helps, I'm running a 31-year-old John Deere.

FBI Director Kash Patel is facing a new controversy over a snorkeling excursion he took to one of the most hallowed places in the United States.
-
There, Navy SEALs used two boats to transport and escort Mr. Patel and nine other people on what a Defense Department email called a “V.I.P. Snorkel” next to one of the military’s most sacred sites, the underwater tomb of the U.S.S. Arizona that holds the remains of more than 900 Navy sailors and Marines who died at Pearl Harbor.
Mr. Patel swam in the vicinity of the tomb for 30 minutes, according to the Navy.

If it runs on starting fluid, it's got spark, and at least some compression. We can assume it's getting air, if you took the filter off to add starting fluid. Looks like fuel is not getting past the carb. You can probably get a carb kit, or even an entire new carb from Amazon, cheap. If it's an old, tired engine, your valve clearances may have eroded away to nothing. Engine will be hard to start, but might seem to run OK at speed. Not knowing the size and model of the engine, I can't tell you how to set valve clearances.

Finally got it drained, and took it out to the driveway on a dolly to check out the pump, cussing the entire way since it got hung up on every door.
Got the washer apart, and pulled the pump, and it was fine, and the shaft it is on was spinning freely. It will pump water in, but it makes a humming noise when it is supposed to be agitating or spinning, so I suspect a bad clutch, or a jammed main shaft.
Either way this is a job for the pros.
It is tarped off in the driveway still, since I do not want to bring it back in the house until I am sure it will run.

I came out of lock down and my husband said he had forgotten what I looked like. Well, I look thinnner and for days did not care what my hair was doing and slept a lot. I kept him away for his own good and he would leave food/liquids at the bedroom doors.
Just to top off the week, the kitchen drain pipe burst and the corner of the basement family room is being dried out with parts of sheet rock cut off. I am so tired it is the least of my problems, not having a sink or dishwasher to use.
On the bright side of pure hell on earth I've lost weight.
On the other side I don't know what or when to eat that might set me off again. I won't survive long on 2gm of protein/day. Tomorrow I might try to eat normally as I am not going to Mass and find out otherwise.

May not be the smart choice, but it's my choice.
Not true... I've rebuilt 3 Wisconsin engines over the years, one Ranger engine and one 6.0 GMC.
But only cause I couldn't buy them off the shelf at the time.

If you're in business, downtime is money. How much money is one losing while repairing the engine vs having it replaced and being back to work?

There's a "Boost"-type drink called "Premier Protein" that comes in many flavors (not just vanilla, choc, strawberry) that you might try, if you're not ready for solid food yet.

NYS is quite beautiful.
It takes politicians to fuq it up.
I was driving on the former Robert Moses Parkway, now the Niagara Parkway, heading north to Ft. Niagara today.
Say what you will about Mr. Moses, but he knew how to design roadways.
The attention to detail is such that even the culverts are finished in a lovely stonework.
The road itself is sweeping in its curves; broad swaths of land between the roadways; nifty interchanges ... quite unlike today's Interstate system.
I love NYS ... from Long Island to Lake Placid to Niagara Falls ... just beautiful.

Think of it this way...
When Casey struck out...and there was no joy in Mudville.
Imagine the inner satisfaction the pitcher had for those three pitches! He threw a whole game and it came down to those three pitches. Each one excellent, done right, and the satisfying smack as the ball buried itself in the catchers glove.
So it is with golf. 80...90...100 swings at the ball, and every so often, one of them is just perfect. Strength, agility, physics all meld together.
And then there is the friendship, beer, sodas and sun.

I hooked up my garden drip irrigation system a coupla days ago. Almost every damned connection leaked.
So... I ordered another 59 feet of supply hose, figuring that my plugs weren't working on the old hose.
After about 1 1/2 days of shutting the thing off, cleaning mud out of hose bibs...changing out washers... attaching things without crossthreading them... it don't leak.
So, I wasted $56 American. Typical.
I also surprised NE Oklahoma is just now needing airco.

When I was a kid my parents had friends that had a multi-generation home on a lake in the Adirondacks. Absolutely gorgeous place and the only way to get to it was by boat. No roads, no utilities, no phones. Everything ran off a huge generator and cooking was done on an old timey wood stove/oven. It was a kids paradise.
At the head of the lake there was a general store, a tiny restaurant, a tennis court and a kids playhouse. They used to take us hiking and camping. I found out years later one of the kids in our group was Kevin Bacon.
So now all of you are 2 degrees from Kevin Bacon. You're welcome.

My irrigation system looks like a Rube Goldberg thang.
I have a garden shed so we can lock up tools n sech. Hydrant is inside. Hydrant goes to pressure reduction valve, cause the hydrant is unregulated.
Valve goes to garden, which is inside a deer fence.. to a
filter, then to another reduction valve for drip irrigation.
Under that is the manifold, so I can run manual hoses and sprinklers.

Get a long siphon hose and pull a sample. Old stale gasoline will fuck up your engine but good. It will burn, and run, but it will turn to a kind of glue after shutdown and coat intake valves and piston rings.
Check the sample out, it will really to start to stink and smell like paint or varnish. Modern tanks are sealed to the atmosphere and lasts a lot longer, but it depends on temperature, blend type, whether there’s a bunch of shit in the tank already.

I was just going to walk on by, but he called out to me. Ok. Brief chat. I didn't know he was undergoing treatment for prostate cancer and he didn't know hubby was now in nursing home.
But I had to go, the snack I'd just bought was something to share with hubby, so I asked bro if I could call him later. He said I could stop by, he'd be home all day. (He lives not far from me.)

Long story short, I stopped by and we had a couple beverages, spent about 5 hours. We both said things we needed to say. I don't believe we'll ever "be friends" again, or socialize regularly, but whatever. We got all caught-up on family sh!t.

Holly Madison and Tina Turner each insured theirs -- for $1M and $790K a pair, respectively -- but it's definitely a boutique line of business, not a standard policy. The tabloid rumor about Madonna taking out a policy on hers is unconfirmed, Dolly Parton clarified it was a jest and not true, and Jennifer Love Hewitt openly considered insuring her breasts for $5M but is not known to have followed through.

This is seen now as "always being mad".
Today was honestly the first real family thing since Covid, since my dad passed alone, in a fucking VA hospital, with no visitors some 6 years ago.
When he left us the family fractured. Today was to be an end to that and the oldest grand didn't want go.
I was let down.
I got mad. He told Gaga he thinks I don't like him.
I'm sitting out here in the shop now feeling like an ass.
I've looked forward to today for 4 weeks.
I want awesome things for those kids.
And here I am.
Today was supposed to be awesome. It was. Except I think me lost a mini me.
I'm dying that I'm such an ass.
I don't know what to do.
The core of this is the way he treats his brother. My "always mad" is me defending a 5 year old against a 9 year old scheemer.

That reminds me of Paul Gilbert, a hard rock guitarist (co-founder of Mr. Big), explaining to Josh Scott (founder of JHS Pedals) about his homemade pedal board. He made it himself so that he could give it a serial number, and then when he traveled internationally for gigs and had to provide a manifest, he could just list the board instead of each individual effects pedal (and power supply and whatnot).
He turned a dozen parts (or more) into "one of these."

Well, a friend of mine who died a few years ago loved JD. He had bottles buried all across the state. When he was on his bike he and his riding buddy would grab a can of coke at a store and dig up a bottle and have a "cocktail". His birthday was a few weeks ago, and his wife was over and we did shots on his birthday, so I got JD in the house. I actually like it. Less bite than woodford, but I think JD is pretty much piss water by now at 80 proof, so that might explain it.

Well it developed a rocker box leak. The gaskets have been improved probably 5 times since the bike was new, and it had older style gaskets. They worked, but they would get brittle, so I did the latest gaskets which are really good. I know someone was in the engine for performance work, and i was a bit worried about the quality of the work. Well, whoever did the work seemed to know what they were doing, they did thing I usually do, so it wasn't a hack. I found roller rocker arms, $900 worth, and there was nice valve springs with titanium spring retainers, S&S pushrods (gooood stuff), 10:1 compression weisco pistons, mildly ported heads, and some other shit. Gotta be an easy 3-4K in parts, and it was done good, and it was done only 3000 miles ago. It was done at 8000 miles, which was a crime in some ways to even touch a motor with such low miles, but I'll take it. It runs great.

JD 80.0, Woodford 90.4
JD is also 80-12-8 corn-barley-rye, while Woodford Reserve is 72-10-18, so Woodford picks up some extra rye bite there.
Neither has an "official age statement" on the bottle, but DDG-AI says JD is 4-7 years and WR is 6-7 years, so pretty close. Woodford might be a bit mellower from that if you get a "younger" JD bottle.

Not fully transparent, but false?
I noted this before. There are 50 separate kars4kids entities, a separate organization for each state. They spend an outsized amount on advertising, but *some* money actually makes it through to benefit kids in their respective state. But the great part about this is the national organization, which also collects a chunk from each state. It is a real charity, whose charter it is to provide summer camp opportunities to Jewish kids in NYC and northern NJ.
Far left California. Hmmmm. Maybe someone figured out what the actual base charity does. Antisemitism?

When hubby first got sick 5 years ago, he lost his appetite. He was rapidly losing weight, hair falling out, weak & pale with liver disease. He was dying of malnutrition. Gummies FTW! Revived his appetite, and he slowly gained back 50lbs over 1.5 years.
It was great for a couple of years, thought hubby would beat the disease, he was doing so well. Alas...
But I'm so grateful that we've gotten the extra time and I'm convinced that it's all because his niece & nephew brought that "contraband" to him.

I have given serious thought to the greeting of, "How are you doing?"
I usually reply, "I am warm, dry, and haven't missed any meals. Life is good!"
And, depending on who asks I will add, "...and no one is shooting at me, but all of that can change in fifteen minutes."
