This is the Wednesday night ONT.

Your friend TRex has an early morning for reasons so you will be on your own tonight. Ciampino has been volunteered to maintain order. Miklos is the designated bouncer. Legally Sufficient has the Ruler of Dread and can administer punishment if the power gets to their head or any of their alter egos break containment. In case of emergency, JQ has the key to the liquor cabinet. Cicero has bail money (but only for for modest offenses). Puddleglum: plywood at 84 Lumber is on sale. I repeat. On sale.

Woof:

Group B Rally Racing. Bonkers.

Science humor:

Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing, but ouch!

Musical interlude:

Spotted deep in the heart of Steeler country:

Doof - didn't realize Pickleball people were Steeler fans! Now I know your true colors. Don't worry. I won't tell anyone.

I also didn't realize there was such a thing as a Pickelball magazine. Can you imagine the headlines?!

"Dill or No Dill: Pickleball's Great Cucumber Controversy!"
"Paddle Smackdown: Granny's Backhand Leaves Opponents in a Pickle!"
"Court Clowns: Team's New 'Synchronized Scream' Strategy Backfires!"

Wasn't expecting this to be a regular feature, but the Pittsburgh police scanner keeps giving:

Another record in the Guinness Book of World records. Who knew this was a category?

Annie and Dave for our big ONT finish:
