Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 15, 2021

How’s the I-880 now two months later? Must’ve been quite the clean up. (I hope it wasn’t caused by a semi struck on its way to a grocery store with its trailer obliviously unlatched.)

The horse isn’t dead yet, so let’s ride.

A young man named Joe bought a horse from a farmer for £250. The farmer agreed to deliver the horse within the next few days.

A couple of days later, the farmer drove up to Joe’s house and said, ‘Sorry son, but I have some bad news, the horse died.’

Joe replied, ‘Well, then just give me my money back.’.

The farmer said, ‘Can’t do that. I’ve spent it already.’.

Joe said, ‘Ok, then, just bring me the dead horse.’.

The farmer asked, ‘What ya gonna do with it?

Joe said, ‘I’m going to raffle him off.’.

The farmer said, ‘You can’t sell a dead horse!’.

Joe said, ‘Sure I can, Watch me. I just won’t tell anybody he’s dead.’.

A month Later, the farmer met up with Joe and asked, ‘What happened with that dead horse?’.

Joe said, ‘I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at £5 apiece and made a profit of £2495.’.

The farmer said, ‘Didn’t anyone complain?’.

Joe said, ‘Just the guy who won. So I gave him his £5 back.’.

Okay, now the horse is dead. Until next time.

What a horror if that toilet paper accident happened in March of 2020. Would people have gotten out of their cars and—oough.

And I considered some people not to be quite right in the head when they started to hoard TP – but disposing it on the street because it may expire is a new dimension of idiocy! (As it is to ride a horse through fire)

♫♪ Goodness gracious, great balls of fire ♫♪…

3388 what strong?

They sure do a ton of animal abuse in Spain

What do the horses have to say about running through bonfires? I’d like to know!

“What are we going to do to get in Ripley’s Believe It Or Not?” “Nothing, I guess. Anyway, Wong’s has a sale on lip balm, let’s go get some, we’re down to 3,386 tubes.”

Take care, may bored TP hauler Ricardo “I’ll Take a Nap Around This Bend” Ramirezord be with you, and gesundheit.

Pfffft… eat your hearts out, Scarlett Ashley and Kaylin. Maxine Waters uses that many in a week. And Dopey Joe stocks up on a few cases, himself, before meeting (?) with Xi, Putin and the Taliban leaders in Afghanistan. Kiss Kiss Kiss. After meeting with The Big Guy, they don’t have to worry about toilet paper spills depriving all the sphincters in California or anywhere else with Joe Bidet on the job.

Funny. Love the groaners too…lol..

PETA would be ALL over that Spain thing.

Hope the horse is a gelding, or there’ll be roasted horse nuts.

Horse nuts roasting over a open fire.

In September, 2019, on Interstate 80 north of Berkeley, a chicken truck overturned and caught fire. https://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/all-lanes-of-wb-highway-80-blocked-due-to-semi-truck-fire/1959646/ Sure seems to be a “good” area for weird highway obstacles…..

I’m sticking my neck out again; however, here is another one of my best remembered:

A group of Polynesian islands far out in the Pacific were occupied by people of the same tribe but were constantly at war with each other. This constant warfare was expensive in blood and materials and interfered with the livelihood of fishing, hunting and gathering. Did I mention these were ancient people of long, long ago?

In any case; they at least all agreed that some solution to the warfare needed to be discovered. As it happened, a young warrior began to make a name for himself as an intelligent, chiasmatic and articulate leader. Before long; by sheer force of his personality and political acumen this young man brought peace and stability to all the tribe and their islands! Without bloodshed, as well!

After two years of peace and prosperity among the islands; the people decided to build a

I’m sure the horses just LOVE that

No doubt San Leandro had a lengthy wiping up process.

That one about the horses doesn’t impress me. We had police officers having to pass through huge bon-fires during the BLM and Counter-Culture movements.
