Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for June 02, 2021

A man comes home from work, and his wife tells him, “The sink is stopped up.”

“Do I look like a plumber?” he asks her.

The next day, the man again arrives home; this time his wife says, “The lights in the basement aren’t working.”

His answer: “Do I look like an electrician?”

The next day, when the man gets home, he finds the sink draining properly and the lights in the basement on. “How did this stuff get fixed?” he asks his wife.

“Well, you know that broad-shouldered, handsome young man next door? He told me he’d fix both problems, and all I had to do was bake him a cake…or sleep with him.”

“Ha ha, that’s a good one!” the husband replies. “So what kind of cake to you make for him?”

“Do I look like a baker?”

Wasn’t the Franco-Belgian boarder tidbit already mentioned a week or so ago?

I get a bit of pica from time to time, and I can’t lie, that boundary stone looks pretty tasty

Maybe Buzz Lightyear can help us learn exactly what happened to the doomed Franklin expedition of 1845!

My personal record for eating pickled eggs is zero in 63.25 years. I plan to keep it that way.

Remind me not to see or read about the annual hot dog eating contest.

Competitive Eating— it’s just wrong, on so many levels.

I think there’s probably a difference between moving a border, and moving a border marker.

A charter member of Belchin’ Without Borders, I’m sure.

Take care, may famed gastroenterologist Dr. Braap Seusord be with you, and gesundheit.

Way to go farmer!

Downvote for Olaf.

I don’t understand how seven and a half feet, by themselves, could have placed that marker in the first place…?

I don’t understand why all the hikers were found in their underwear. I’d keep every piece of clothes I had on me to keep warm.

International incident, that was ….

Never had a “jam” donut. However, I’ve put away my share of “jelly” donuts…

This seems to indicate the farmer owns the land on both sides of the border. Two property tax bills … Another reason to move the border.

And in no surprise to anyone, Leah is pushing 300#…

Actually, the border never changed. So long as the treaty that established it all those years ago is still in effect and both countries still recognize it, then legally it never moved. The marker is irrelevant.

But didn’t Cool Hand Luke eat 50 hard-boiled eggs in one afternoon at that road gang prison?

That “snow code” item makes absolutely no sense to me.
