Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for May 26, 2016

Mom i said Id get you a souvenir and make your first game memorable.

How long ago was the game Mrs. Fellers got whacked by her own son?

Amazing! “The forest contains trees so well-preserved that when they are cut, they still smell like fresh Cypress sap" http://www.livescience.com/37977-underwater-cypress-forest-discovered.html

Did she get to keep the ball?

She’s got dermographia; this happened to me one time. I got hive-like marks even from emptying grocery sacks. The doctor prescribed an OTC anti-histamine, it gradually went away.

If I were her, I’d keep the ball and when we got home and bean him with it!

He never heard the end of that one, let me tell you

That Bob Feller first game was on Mother’s Day , May 14, 1939. Viz.

At Comiskey Park, Bob Feller’s mother, sitting in the stands near the visitor’s dugout, is injured when a foul ball hits her just above the right eye. The Indians’ starting pitcher, her son Bob, threw the pitch that resulted in his mom needing seven stitches on Mothers’ Day.

Tarsus, Turkey was once a seaport.Now, 5 miles inland.(Maybe with global warming it will be again?)

Does anyone else notice that Nabuquduriuzhur and treesareus are never seen in the same room together? :-)
