Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for March 13, 2020

“No, Wait, Wait!! I’m just out of pheromone-12!!”

So, open your umbrella indoors on Friday the 13th.

I’ve opened an umbrella indoors just for the fun of it.

And if you murder someone in the wrong state, you get enough electric shocks to kill you. According to the movie The Green Mile, Alabama was one of them; but I don’t know if they still do or not or how true that is to reality.

Take care and may God bless.

Lo and behold, National “Open an Umbrella Indoors Day” 2020 is on unlucky weekday Friday. (WHERE is is considered national? The United States of America?)

The ant thing? Pretty much all nesting ants remove their dead to the trash heap along with inedible parts of food morsels or stray leaf fragments. I’ve seen this with half a dozen species colonies that I’ve raised from single founding queens. I assume pheromones are always involved.

We’re quite different from the ants. We let out an odor to let others know that we’ve died.

Who would have thought electric shocks are so much fun people would pay for them?

When I was a kid in the 50s, there was an indoor amusement park in Coney Island called The Steeplechase. There was a guy with an electric rod who would shock you as you walked by to get on line for a ride if you didn’t move quickly enough.

Isn’t that normal behavior for ANY ant? And I doubt the dead ant is capable of producing anything. It’s the smell of a decaying corpse that triggers the carrying-and-dumping.

Porque toque?

I going to start a game called Rizador. In this one, you hang onto a curling iron as long as possible. I’ll bet you could find some dumbasses who would pay for it.

Info on Toques (I think I’ll sit this one out)…https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3019323/Last-night-real-buzz-shocking-drinking-game-seeing-surge-Mexican-bars-party-goers-electrocuted-scream.html

I an’t dead yet

I’ll bet they love to see a fat gringo coming.

Toques means something way different here in Canada. :p

I think it’s happening in Iran right now, due to Covid-19. I heard the body pits can be seen from space.

At Disneyland’s Main Street, they have (or had) an arcade with machines from late 19th century / early 20th century. At one of the machines, the user would grip two metal rods, one with each hand. The machine would produce an increasing amount of electricity, and rate the user on when he/she let go.

Honey! Your turn to take out the dead ant pile!

Hmm. I hope some of them don’t suffer from some kind of defect leading to medical mistakes.

you know it’s their besties carrying them away

They don’t know about video games in Mexico City yet?

Why would you pay anything when you can just smart off to a cop and get it for free…
