Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for August 06, 2013

That Japanese tradition doesn’t really surprise me. The idea behind traditions is that they show the best candidates for marriage. The stronger wolf gets to be alpha because he can better protect the pack. In this case, dying your teeth was something you needed to do regularly, which showed you have the free time to do so.

Uh, that one about the beef has been in the news the last 2 days.

“Just in!” …….. It was found that eating a hamburger made from one cell in a Lab turned your teeth black and made you want to commit a crime! :)

Got to wonder… who was the first married woman to come up with the notion to blacken her teeth, go out in public, and become a fashion icon.

Oh boy! It won’t be long now till we get replicators for food.Take ideas from science fiction and make them real! I may even be alive to see it.

The black teeth thing isn’t as bad as foot binding. At one time Chinese parents would bind the feet of their daughters because small feet were considered beautiful. Whole generations of Chinese women were crippled to the point they could barely walk.

The scientists in New Mexico one makes me wonder if we are now on the road to “Minority Report”.

In this future time, they have the ability to accurately predict that someone is about to commit a crime.
