Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for March 23, 2016

Actually in another 3 days the train station comment won’t be true: Trains stop at the station based on the schoolgirl’s timetable and pass by when she is on holiday on her classes are off.The station is served by the single-track and lies 50 miles from the official starting point of the line at Shin-Asahikawa.It is now scheduled to close permanently on March 26.(March 26th, 2016 is when the girl using it graduates from High School)

We have a bunch of, small shelters, stations in Ontario that you need to call CN the day before and they will stop. In the North though you can still flag the train to stop anywhere along the side of the track.

I thought the 2010 prize was Obama"s but he had a golf game schedueled

Gotta love Dr Karl! It should be noted (for Non-Aussies) that he’s one of our best public Science communicators. He has an unerring instinct for scientific studies that bring out the weird and hilarious side of Science. His books are amazing.

Did they get Clint Eastwood to award that Nobel Peace Prize?

Would the train have run for a married passenger?

Did the doctor give up his work during Lent?

Dr. Karl’s will be studying “Toe Jam” next.

Why not? They gave it to an empty suit in 2009.

What a coincidence, the 2010 Nobel was presented to the same entity as the 2009.

Thanks, Dr. Karl, but, they were already doing that, at The Navel Academy…

In January 2016, it was reported on Chinese state broadcaster CCTV’s Facebook page that the station was being kept open for the benefit of just one high-school girl who used the station to commute to and from school, and that it was scheduled to close when the girl graduated.1 However, it was later revealed that the station in question was actually Kyū-Shirataki Station, two stops away, and there is no evidence that the timing of the closure of either station was connected with the girl’s graduation.

I have a empty chair at my house

In the comic strip L’il Abner, there was a Fearless Fosdick episode in which a Chippendale chair was a criminal mastermind.

why couldn’t they tell us that japanese person’s name? I’m guessing he or she lives in a village so small they’re the only person who commutes by train.

I am to understand that the committe plans to retrieve the prize from the likes of Obama

Nope. SHE is a high school student.The Japanese value Education above all other concerns.

The chair probably deserved it more than Obama.

I live on a country rail line, sometimes it stops at stations which have no passengers at all.

The 2010 Peace Prize went to Liu Xiaobo. Unfortunately, Liu is in Prison. So this post is crap.BTW— MOST Nobel Prize recipients are not present to receive the Prize.
