Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for May 02, 2021

This looks like the new artist.

According to the recipe, marshmallows require sugar, corn syrup, salt and vanilla. Did Ancient Egypt have all of those things?

Marshmallow treats in ancient Egypt sounds unbelievable to me.

Well, Chapman was the only MLB player to be killed Directly by a pitch. The research is still ongoing about the long-term effects of concussions, and it doesn’t look good.

“Marshmallow” as in"marshmallow (althea) root", right?

Trees are many different sizes. Even the same kind of tree can vary greatly in size. What is the standard size tree?

I am sure it is still a lot of toilet paper used, but I think it would have been better to have stated the use in number of pounds or tons.

Quite a lot of bums to be cleaned in the US .

I think that the marshmallow treat I got from the vending machine at work yesterday was made in ancient Egypt. Darn near broke a tooth!

Big deal. I’ve heard the hummingbird bee is much smaller. JK

All that TP makes one want a bidet. (Now to have mine installed…)

I wonders how many bunny rabbits we’d require. Naah. We’ll just continue using the river waters. Gots to go fish after the walk in the woods anyway.

According to Reggie Vel Johnson in Die Hard, no way that marshmallow can compete with a Twinkie for endurance.

Wonder if the TP count is pre-pandemic or since the remote school and office system became the norm. Read where the numbers went way up beginning last April.

Last year, they were buying them by one acre forest lots

Chapman’s death contributed to three MLB changes: More frequent replacement of dirty baseballs with clean baseballs by umpires; the outlawing of spitballs after the 1920 season; and eventually requirements that batters wear helmets in the 1950s (1956 in the NL; 1958 in the AL).

Why don’t you comment on the comic instead of trying to draw all attention to yourself?

Oh go ahead and just use the trees. You’ll be clean (if perseverance is your forte), and the trees will live to tell about it.

Take care, may world renowned dog interpreter Sean Wooford be with you, and gesundheit.

If we run out of trees, I know where there are lots of poison sumac bushes. Just trying to be helpful.

Today’s story takes us back to the same Old Folks Home where two elderly gentlemen share a room! Bob is awakened by a loud rapping sound and finds roommate Phil banging his fist on the wall by his bed! " What the hell are ya doing Phil?" “I just woke up with the first erection I’ve had in 30 years !” “So why are ya beating your fist on the wall?” Phil says “My damn hand is asleep!”So long and may ye be in Heaven a half hour fore the Divil knows yer dead!

And the average US household hoards the average of 4 trees worth of TP…

Marshmallows and crispy rice was available in ancient Egypt?

I want a bee hummingbird to perch on my thumb.

As long as those two trees are bradford pear, I don’t mind.

Did Ray get awarded a base on balls?

Some of them are still quite tasty and their extreme long life even rivals that of Twinkies…

Weighs less than one short side of a business card?

only one? how lucky is that? if Yogi Berra were alive to read this, he’d be rolling over in his grave

Standard fact about trees and paper. For every tree they cut down they plant anywhere from 6-8 new trees that are specially bred to become paper. They also use the waste parts of the trees to help power the plant. The whole save a tree thing was a myth. Yes I spent most of my working life in industries that dealt with paper industry in both the printing and office supply businesses.

What was the name of the pitcher?

In ‘68, in Marine Boot Camp, our DI showed us how to use ONE SHEET of toilet paper to get the job done.
