Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for May 28, 2022

how did one ever think of Washington’s dentures were wooden?

Well, there was the Apple-tree Incident ;)

In the old timey days everyone had lousy teeth, so the characters in Pride and Prejudice must have had stank mouth. Ooh, Mr. Darcy! Believe it or not!

That is just like Russia , create something in space that no one needs or wants : (

I do wonder if the lead teeth were ever diagnosed as a medical problem.

And other than a lot of computer controlled stuff, the electric car has not change much, we need better batteries, period.

Vladimir Putin would be the perfect name for a Russian cockroach..

Is it not bad enough cockroaches may live beyond our species demise, we must also introduce them to space?

That guy in Russia should be called Vlad (Dracula)!

I didn’t know that any species of cockroach gave live birth to their offspring. I thought they all laid eggs.

So the Russians are fond of cockroaches? Makes sense considering all of those that live in the Kremlin…

Q – How do you know if a cockroach is Russian?

A – Nobody wants to buy his oil

So, humans are Russian to get cockroaches into space.

Take care, may eschewed presidential historian Professor Walter “It’s True They All Chewed With Their Mouths Open” Cronkord be with you, and gesundheit.

Giving birth and conceiving are not synonymous. How long is the gestation period for cockroaches … wait, I don’t want to know.

@Chihal if you check in today . . . I’m assuming you deleted your comment you posted yesterday… It is unfortunate you did that, cuz it shows you are a concerned citizen when your president says “hang Mike Pence” — Trump… I was surprised by those who chastised you for making a statement about a subject that not only concerned you, but should be of great concern to all people – especially Americans.

My advice to you — Stand Your Ground, for smaller minds are always ready to bring down those they feel mightier than themselves!

Good for our nation’s First President!!

Cockroaches in space. Didn’t work out well for the crew of the Nostromo.

Soupy Sales: Show me a set of wooden teeth and I’ll show you George Washington’s bridge.

Were they conceived in space? or ‘just’ oviposited?

First creature conceived in space That We Know Of!

so we’ve already infested space with cockroaches

The Invasion of the Space Roaches.

It’s thought that the human teeth George’s false teeth were from slaves.

And just why were cockroaches sent into space? Or were they hoping it would be a future way to eliminate them?

So….a cockroach was the first member of the 100-mile high club?
