The kiss was the cover of Times magazine. The picture was taken during V day celebrations. The funny thing is that, under current standards, the kiss was actually a sexual assault since she didn’t consent to it. According to the photographer, that sailor was running around Times Square kissing every woman he could get his hands on, making him a serial abuser…
Over the decades many people have claimed to be the sailor or the nurse. My favorite was the quick-change artist who said the photo was a double-exposure, & that he was BOTH!!
Oh, woooooooow! A gap between teeth has a NAME? Reeeeeallly?! OMG! OMG! I can’t BELIEVE it! That just BOGGLES THE MIND! Dentists actually gave that a NAME! Holy smokes! Sheesh. Really, they put a dumb tidbit like THAT in this. I thought Ripley’s was supposed to be about things that were truly unbelievable. That’s totally believable and so is the thing about the red M&Ms. I actually remember when they brought them back and I believe they had taken them out because of the red dye causing cancer, or something.

The red M&M’s were removed because of a scare concerning a red food-coloring that apparently was toxic.

Couldn’t they just ask the photographer what day he took the picture?

And if you set up the dressing room for Van Halen, there had better be no brown M&M’s on the table

1) Astronomers obviously have too much time on their hands
2) Does anyone know why Terry-Thomas spelled his name with that hyphen?

1) Astronomers officially have too much time on their hands.
2) Does anyone know why Terry-Thomas always wrote his name with that hyphen?
