Tuesday Overnight Open Thread - May 26, 2026 [Doof]

Howdy Hordelings! The Tuesday ONT is here and so are you. What a combination! Open thread, as always. What's on YOUR mind tonight?

***

We still haven't hit climate doomsday. And we never will!

It's the 20th Anniversary of Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth."

NONE of his scary predictions have come true.

Mt. Kilimanjaro still has snow and Glacier National Park still has glaciers.

Here's why we are not doomed: pic.twitter.com/397ZSY5iNs

My once great home state can't get the smaller, single span Key Bridge rebuilt - but sure, let's go ahead and plan for a new Chesapeake Bay Bridge. Much longer and two spans. Great idea!

When will a new Chesapeake Bay Bridge arrive?

Despite the dreary weather this Memorial Day weekend, the Chesapeake Bay Bridge has been very congested with holiday traffic at times – especially after a crash at the start of the eastbound span Friday morning – leaving some drivers wondering when relief will finally come for the aging bridge.

State officials are planning to replace the current bridge with two wider, safer spans, but it’s going to take a while and depend on funding.
After studying alternatives such as building new bridges elsewhere, in December 2025, the Maryland Transportation Authority (MDTA) board voted unanimously on a plan that would lead to two new four-lane bridge spans (both with shoulders this time!) that would be built next to the current two spans. The old spans would be torn down.

I'm going to start some kind of non-profit which specializes in some obscure thing that has to be done whenever there is a bridge design / build. Need to get me a piece of that sweet state government largess!

On to a construction project that is actually making progress

Stadium construction begins at White House for UFC Freedom 250

Construction is underway at the White House to build a temporary structure for next month's Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) fight.
President Donald Trump is hosting the UFC Freedom 250 event on the South Lawn on Sunday, June 14, which will mark Flag Day, the day Congress approved the design of a national flag, and the president's 80th birthday.
Tickets are not listed for the 8 p.m. event, which will be available to watch on Paramount+, according to the UFC Freedom 250 website.
Crews have already started assembling the semi-circular structure on the lawn just behind the octagon and stands for people to watch. The structure was made in Pennsylvania and shipped to D.C.
Dana White, the CEO of the UFC, said he plans to keep the White House the backdrop for every fight.

This should be a really kewl event!

1976 was a great year for albums. Check out this Wikipedia page to see for yourself

Also worth checking out - All 11 No. 1 Albums of 1976 Ranked Worst to Best from ultimateclassicrock.com

Spoiler alert - they got #1 wrong. It can only be Frampton Comes Alive. No argument to the contrary holds any water.

The article is worth checking out, though. Lots of good albums on that list!

8 I saw Gary Wright and Peter Frampton open for The Beach Boys in '76 at Three Rivers Stadium. Wright gave a great opening act but Frampton brought the house down. After his set was finish, most of the concert goers left before the Beach Boys even got started.

66 The quality of the UFC has really diminished over the years. Most of these matchups turn into sparing sessions and go to the judges.

These bouts should never go to the judges. The fighters should decide who wins or it would be acceptable if the ref or the doctor make a ruling. Offer incentives for KO or TKO. I don't want to see sparing on PPV.

But Bozoberg, you have to allow it. You're going in with top billing on the Amateur Card!

94 Howdy everyone. If you're so inclined, prayers requested for my mom. She's back in the hospital. Very weak from one or more infections. Sleeping a lot. Not really talking when she's alert for a few minutes.

This sucks.

104 Doof, Prayers sent from JTB and me. We have a go bag by the door with crosswords, books, tablets, cords, snacks, soda and rosaries for such events. Always hope it isnt' needed, but if it is then helpful for times of waiting and giving comfort to loved ones.

105 Thank you Mr. Doof!

Don't have much to add to the conversation tonight.

Starting to look like we're out of the woods with the chemical tank in Garbage Grove.

One of the local High Schools announced no more in-person classes this year as they are an evacuation center. Could not help thinking 'here we go again....'

Hope everyone in the horde got some rest yesterday and started the week well.

106 Off to bed. Y’all have a good night!

Mama Doof in bedtime prayers without question.

Posted by: Piper at May 26, 2026 10:41 PM (Wmg4n)

107 Doof, I pray your mother recovers quickly and completely.

Then she can swap between baking cookies and saying, "I heard that, you have a chest cold!"

Senator John Cornyn invokes a Theodore Roosevelt quote from 1910 during his concession speech — after suffering a devastating primary loss to Ken Paxton.

CORNYN: “Tonight, I’m reminded of something Teddy Roosevelt said in 1910.”

“He said, it’s not the critic that counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better.”

“The credit belongs to the man who’s actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and blood and sweat, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again.”

112 Robert the Cat (TM) news: nothing today, really. He found a tiny Amazon box interesting, so I got out a larger, cat-can-fit box. He was unimpressed.

In other news, I still think "The Beyond" is a stupid Italian horror movie, but I have to admit Grindhouse's 4K release looks outstanding.

Years ago I let myself get talked into taking a parrot from a friend who was moving.

Meanest SOB ever.

Luckily they wanted him back after a few months.

116 Parrots.

Better fried or roasted?

117 That list isn't bad. 1976 was a good year. I had a couple of those albums.
