Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for August 01, 2021

Bet that was a Christmas vacation no one on that flight Craig Gifford piloted forgot.

I saw a guy on YouTube land an aerobatic plane which had lost an entire wing during a maneuver. If it was faked, they did a wonderful job.

So even back in 1794, they tried making a dollar coin and it didn’t catch on.

Brandy must have had a cat hating neighbor who took her and dumped her.

Brandy, you’re a fine cat.

After 15 years can you really claim ownership of the animal? It was either living feral all that time or was adopted by someone else.

Poor Brandy. I would have left LA too!

Adjusted for inflation, the coin should have sold for $947,000.

Say it loud, say it clear: Horseshoe. Now wipe your nose.

Take care, may little known Wright brother Norvilleord be with you, and gesundheit.

Do we really need the mask?

I know why the upper crust on the hill that call themselves bluebloods eat,

Now, there’s the real bluebloods…

They say Pilot Gifford got cited by the Minneapolis Police for obstructing traffic.

That’s what interstates are for. Every five miles there must be one mile of perfectly straight road, so military aircraft can land there in an emergency.

Was Brandy happy to be reunited? Or did she go “Dang! You found me”

I wonder if Craig Gifford got a traffic ticket for that landing; anybody know?

Blood of horseshoe crab, eye of newt, wing of bat, fig of newton, etc

And, as you can clearly see, it comes with it’s own hypodermic…

Horseshoe crab blood is used in the pharmaceutical industry as a test for bacteria waste, called endotoxin. It changes color according to the range of endotoxin in the sample. Called the LAL test, it was a breakthrough discovery and the first test of its kind.

Doing some cleaning up, I found a one dollar coin, from 2000, that has a woman’s likeness on it. It looks yellowish, for some reason. I forgot I even had it.
