Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for October 03, 2015

If the dogs and cats have the same rights as their human owners they should be allowed to have pets. Thankfully the pet’s pets cant have pets because pets only have human rights if they are owned by humans not pets.

Considering that Putin is a former KGB agent, who worked in counter-intelligence and intelligence gathering, one would assume he has intensive martial arts training.

Ripley’s thinks that tidbit about the Russian president is such a big deal? He’s highly skilled in karate. So what? Probably every president or world leader has some kind of talent. Reagan was an actor which I find to be a bigger deal than karate, by the way. I thought the point of Ripley’s Believe it or Not was about those things that would mainly be unbelievable. A nation’s president with an 8th degree black belt in karate is hardly unbelievable.

And the Kims of North Korea have 11th-degree black belts, or so say the propaganda.If cats and dogs have human rights, then do they have to wear clothes in public, or are the humans allowed to go naked?

Whether Reagan was an actor is open to question – he had an appealing screen presence, but very limited range, which was sufficient to get into movies back then – as one critic of the time said if him, ‘He wears a hat well.’ It takes considerable study, practice and sheer effort to accomplish the upper levels in any martial art.
