Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for June 15, 2020

What? Really? About the kangaroo.

Bourbon with milk sounds terrible.

No wonder Kangaroos have pouches for their babies. They would lose the little things without them.

So how much milk do they produce and drink in Kentucky?

They drink it for hangovers.

Yesterday was Bourbon Day and I saw a nice segment on how they make it.

Not only did he write the State Farm jingle, but these others as well….https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/64713/6-famous-jingles-barry-manilow

Manilow wrote a couple of McDonald’s commercial jingles

He also wrote McDonalds jingle " You deserve a break today" and one for Hoover but it was not accepted.

Bourbon IS whiskey! What’s hard to believe is that 5% of Bourbon is not made in Kentucky because the definition of Bourbon is “whiskey made in Kentucky!” :D (yes! there are two other conditions, so trivial and so common in the whiskey industry that it doesn’t make a difference)

If I remember correctly. the newborn kangaroo climbs to the pouch on its own to find and attach to a nipple for about six months before being big enough to poke its head up and look around.

Contrary to what anyone may claim, I assure you that bourbon is the state drink of Kentucky

Never understood alcohol consumption. That stuff tastes nasty. It must produce one-hell-a-va-high for people to be willing to die ingesting it.

The University of Maryland has state-owned farms, but I never heard a “jingle” for them.

So which state did Barry write a farm jingle for?

Bourbon milk punch: Two ounces of Bourbon; 3 oz Whole milk; 1 oz Simple syrup; 2 dashes Vanilla extract; Garnish: Grated nutmeg.

That would be the State of Denial.

Take care and gesundheit.

the state drink of RI is coffee milk….growing up it was never coke vs. pepsi, it was autocrat vs. eclipse

I hate to dispute Ripley but after the last 4 months, Kentucky is going to switch the state drink to Bourbon.

State Farm Jingle… uh, let’s see, You’re in good hands with,.. no, Nationwide is on your… nope… sorry, can’t come up with State Farm Jingle. 8^p

I’m torn between finding the newborn kangaroo adorable and creepy.

Horse milk!

Do Kentucky cows produce blue milk? (from the bluegrass)

I see a little dot of land in the lower left of the state. Why is it separate?

Well, I know there is a milk and vodka drink but I’m not sure milk and bourbon would be tasty…

Didn’t Kentucky only legalize the consumption of alcoholic beverages in 1966? (not 1936, nineteen-SIXTY-six)
