Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for February 21, 2022

Charlie Fogwhistle has been playing up in the lights the last few nights, as well as several others relatively new the The O.F.W.T.J. Society. And, while I’ve been posting longer than they have, seniority is apparently no guarantee of superiority. Therefore, I’m unearthing some Winners. I hope…

A nubile young college professor is handing out weekend assignments to her students. “Class,” she instructs, “This must be completed and turned in to me no later than Monday morning – NO EXCUSES.”

Little Johnny (yes, that Little Johnny; he’s in college now) raises his hand and asks, “What about extreme sexual exhaustion?”

The prof waits for the laughter to die down, and then, with exquisite timing, looks Little Johnny in the eye and sweetly replies, “Then you’ll just have to learn to write with your other hand.”

Anyone want to guess how many bungee jumps our Jason once made in 24 hours?

The “ban” on Fernando De Noronha isn’t for the parents; it’s for the doctors. The hospital there doesn’t have facilities set up for childbirth or childcare, so they’re required to transport pregnant patients to the nearest suitable hospital.

Imagine if you know you’re going to give birth because you heard a breaking noise from your body. Who’d ever do it? Also, I can’t believe Mike even survived all that.

And I thought the first Saturday in May was Derby Day.

On the Island of Svalbard it is illegal both to give birth and to die. Not sure what the penalty for any of them is, tough.

Come to think of it I’ve never seen a clothed garden on the first Saturday of May.

Take care, may famed baby doctor Goo-Goo “Gaa-Gaa Gee-Gee” Gor-Gord be with you, and gesundheit.

The first saturday in may is traditionally free comic book day too

I don’t believe it

Mike Heard’s middle/nick name is “Yo-yo”

He looks clothed to me.

I’ve decided tomorrow is “World Make Up a Make-Believe Holiday Day.”

The First Saturday of May is Mohel training day

yeahbut seems like the hardest part was hauling axe back to the jump point so fast.

The illustration of the pregnant woman has her showing more skin than the illustration of the man gardening on “World Naked Gardening Day”.

World Naked Gardening Day is fun, but not as much fun as World Naked Frying Bacon and Eggs Day.

Who set up WNG day? The United Nations Committee for Naked Gardening?

Banned it may be … but it happens.

I heard that Mike Heard tried one more jump but the cord snapped.

Phew…Time to change the baby’s diaper.
