Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for August 09, 2023

And nobody has ever dared attacking the BAP Puno (or even go near it).

I’m sensing a sequel to Cocaine Bear.

A boat powered by poo on a lake called titti-caca? 5th grade me is giggling with amusement! This has been “Engineering facts for the immature”

Wow. I made it THIS far in life before learning that ‘Lake Titicaca’ is an actual, real place.

Why did Pablo Escobar need 70 Hippo’s ?

Well if that boat is going to operate on a lake with a name like that it might as well run on pooparooni.

May the abhorred be with you as they are with feceeeeez. Aaaannnndd … gesundheit.

Perhaps dried Hippo dung might power the steam ship? Let me know how it goes via a note in a bottle.

I watched a special about the Hippos on either (Nast Geo, History or PBS) they are also trying to shoot the females with birth control. Since the Hippos have no natural predator and are destroying land in South America

Was the bottle returned with postage due?

The Guardacostas would be one sweet smelling steamship.

I’d heard of a cocaine bear, but hippos?

Llama caca on Lake Titicaca. Sounds like a lot of caca to me.

Silly drug lord – you’re supposed to use Mules, not hippos!

My favorite comics are this one, The Phantom, Sally Forth, Zippy, and Luann. But Luann has vanished. Fans seem puzzled. Whuh hoppen? Does anyone know? I can’t find it where it used to be found …anywhere. Several days with no explanation except “not available” at Gocomics. I have a subscription to Washington Post online and it’s supposed to be there, but it ain’t no mo.

Maybe they could use hippo dung to fuel the steamship.

Why does what they are calling a Navy ship say Coast Guard on the side? Is it not a Navy ship or is the artwork wrong by showing the Coast Guard wording on the side?

Didn’t W.C. Fields once reference Lake Titicaha?
