Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for August 22, 2017

ne’er heard of Point Nemo before

what if we move one inch north of Point Nemo.?

Anyone else grossed out by the Disney World trivia bit there? Yuck!

Cartmill was investigated and so was John Campbell the editor of Astounding in which the story appeared. They, luckily, convinced the govt they weren’t spies.

Zechariah 14:12 decribes the effect of an atomic blast thousands of years before the fact.

\\//_

sure, the concept of the bomb was well-known before 1944-

-after it’s conception as the ’Manhattan Project"

-actual construction was started at Oak Ridge Tennessee in 1942

And so in a future Ripley’s they’re going to reference Looney Tunes and the Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator…

All Disney puts out these days is sewage!

I have read that in medieval times they would urinate in the stairwells of the castles. These were the rich folks.

Any clownfish at that point?

When I first arrived on Okinawa in the late 70’s they still used open sewer ditches. In the town just outside the base gate the cement ditches were (mostly) covered with cement tiles. It was still a good idea to be careful where you stepped.

I read that the Chinese crap in the rice paddy while working. Help fertilize the rice!
