Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for December 24, 2022

I am surprised that John Lennon didn’t try to turn away the visiting Jesus figure. Imagine if he had!

An optimist and a pessimist were riding a bus together when the optimist got hungry. “Let’s stop at the next restaurant,” said the optimist. “Then we can take the next bus and continue our journey.”

“I don’t think that’s a good idea,” said the pessimist. “It could cause something bad to happen.”

“Or it could cause something good to happen,” replied the optimist, “and besides, I’m hungry!”

So the two of them left the bus and went into the restaurant.

While they were eating, a news report came on the TV.

“A bus was crushed in an avalanche fifteen minutes ago,” said the reporter. “Everyone on the bus was killed.” The optimist and the pessimist recognized the bus as the one they had gotten off.

“See?” said the optimist. “I told you something good would happen if we got off the bus!”

“Good?” sputtered the pessimist. “If the bus hadn’t stopped to let us off, it might have missed the avalanche!”

Can’t really argue with Paul’s reasoning.

An “avalanche” occurs in snow. A “landslide” (or a sandslide, I suppose) occurs on sand dunes.

With those sox? Of course, it was Jesus Sanchez. Heck of a guy.

Take care, may singing cowboy Gene “That Roy Guy Was Always Jealous” Autrord be with you, and gesundheit.

Merry Christmas all!

Look up how Erine Chambers sued God. Interesting concept.

“Ripley’s Believe It Or Not by Ripley’s Believe It Or Not presents Ripley’s Believe It Or Not!”

Believe it… or not… ㋡

Pretty sure they could’ve tested that Jesus imposter for authenticity…

I’ve never heard that about the Beatles.

Paul was wise to cover his butt. And I wonder if that woman ever got her money?

I have heard and read that Jesus has done that before.

and God didn’t have an attorney

A tree branch fell on my Cadillac convertible, when I reported it to my Insurance company they said it wasn’t covered because it was an Act of God! Sleazy insurance companies!

I’m with that dude. If I’m going to claim to be somebody famous, I’d pick Jesus. Cuz if I say I’m Satan, nobody is going to buy me lunch

Boudreaux told Clotile that he and Thib was going fishing the next day and dar wasn’t nothing she could do about it.

Clotilde says ok we’ll see.

The next day Boudreaux and Thib were out on the lake when Boudreaux reaches in the worm bucket and pulls out a nightcrawler that was stiff as a nail.

Boudreax let’s out a sigh and tells Thib,

Well I’ll be dang, Dat Clotile she tol me we’ll see an I didn’t believe her.

Thib axe, Well what she done Boo?

She done went and put my Viagra in da worm bucket, now day so hard we’ll never get dem on da hook.

Amusing array of items here, on Christmas Eve.

I wonder what John Lennon had to say about that.

MERRY CHRISTMAS Everyone… Now a joke :-Two guys are speeding through Texas when a state trooper pulls them over. The trooper walks up to the drivers side of the car, gets out his billy club and smacks the driver across the face. Stunned, the driver asks, ‘’Why did you do that??’’ The trooper responds, ’’You’re in Texas now son, you have that license out and ready around here!’’

‘’I apologize sir, I’m not from around here.’’

The trooper then walks to the passenger side of the car, and taps on the window. The passenger rolls down his window and the trooper takes out his club and smacks the passenger across the face.

‘’What was that for?’’ asked the passenger.

‘’I know your kind,’’ says the trooper, ‘’About two miles down the road you would have looked at your buddy and said ’I wish that son of a B!tch would have tried that crap with me!’’ …. Birdman out.
