Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for June 19, 2021

One time I snored at 111.7 decibels. The reason I didn’t do a spoonerism for her name is because the last name would’ve sounded racist, and I doubt the moderators let that sort of thing go.

With snoring that loud, she probably sleeps on her back. Sleeping on your side decreases or gets rid of the snoring.

Where can one obtain that very white paint and on what would you apply it if not your picket fence?

Good ol’ Pee You! Born about twenty-five miles from there. Go Boilermakers!

It must be awful when you fall asleep during a rock concert and everyone complains about your snoring

I’m glad I don’t live in Jenny’s zip code.

…..and sadly Jenny Chapman never married.

I can reduce global warming just by taking my shirt off.

The paint base requires huge amounts of refined oil from Exxon Mobil and iridium ore child-mined only in Zimbabwe. Oh, and a touch of unborn whale blubber…..

Jenny probably has a room or even a house to herself.

Does the improved surface cooling mean that residential a/c’s will be more efficient, thus lowering energy bills for homeowners?

Chernobyl has reappeared as Russia’s current crisis, but in 1986, one report cited feas that, if uncontrolled, the faulty unit could become hot enough to burn its way through the mantel and cause incredible damge to the globe. Whether that was true or not is still unclear. Fortunately the unit was buried under tons of suppressant material by a heroic helicopter pilot named Anatoly Grishchenko, and dozens of others, who are listed as Heroes of the Soviet Union.

Paint the inside of the unit four reactor with ultra-white.

Take care, many Sioux Keystone Pipeline Poet N’glala M’nord be with you, and gesundheit.

Can’t imagine why a re-ignited nuclear “ember” would be at risk of explosion. The material used in energy production isn’t pure enough a grade to use as weapons-grade, and the encasement was not designed as a bomb (not as simple as a movie would have you believe). IF water were entrapped around it, you might see a steam burst, nothing on the level of a nuclear explosion. The whole Ripleys bit regarding Chernobyl seems a bit far-fetched.

Hard to believe that there’s a new shade of white, that’s so much whiter than previous whites that it could be world-saving. Yeah, not buying THAT…

How has Jenny NOT been run out of town by neighbors within honking distance?!?

Maybe all reroofing ought to be done using a white coated asphalt shingle.

no such thing as global warm…..[eyeroll]

The only thing needed to combat this global warming malarkey is to ignore the political opportunists spewing it!

Chernobyl incident – gives Putin something new to deny.

On the other hand, the manufacturing of that paint broke records in carbon emissions :D

My mother would have given her a run for her money!

The atmosphere works like mirrors, brighter light reflects more times in the atmosphere, then heating more the planet. I wonder if the whitest paint pinture creates more ray reflections,if yes, then the effect is heating more the planet as more reflection happens in the atmosphere.

Wonder what kind of alarm Jenny uses to wake up.

Gotta love Russian technology and scientific ability.

I highly recommend the book “Midnight in Chernobyl”. Guaranteed to keep you up nights, especially if you live in the Ukraine.

“believe it OR not” -—— NOT!

I’d guess she isn’t married.

Leave it to conservatives in Indiana to find a way to whitewash global warming.

So that’s why Putin wasn’t smiling.
