Ripley's Believe It or Not by Ripley’s Believe It or Not! for January 11, 2023

Weremy Jade So why didn’t he switch to saltwater fish? Are there saltwater rivers?

You mean the sharks didn’t batter the shields like starships on Star Trek where one hit would reduce shields down to 20% or more?

Every one of these facts was related to sea creatures.

May the Lord be with you as He is with me.

So why make a show showing off Wade’s catches without actually showing him catching his catches?

And then the dolphins and sharks crashed the Red Lobster crab feast!

I’m here for the funnies. Look forward every day to reading a new one written or rewritten by each of you. What makes me sad is the fact that some feel the intense need to be the “honor and repeat” police. If you’ve read it or posted it before, who cares. A lot of us have not seen it. Put your pride in your pocket. If you begin reading something, and you feel it’s offensive ( as I have on occasion) just skip by it. The teacher isn’t going to test you at the end of RBION. There are enough horrible, terrible things going on in this world the we should all be able to find a place to get a chuckle once in awhile. And, if you do change and post an email .. Loop me in.

dawn will post a few more days before going into hibernation.

Tuco, I can see your profile but not any of your posts.

A Newfie had caught two lobsters and was walking home along the coast …

… when a cop drove by and saw him. The cop pulled over and stopped the man.

“Sir, are you aware it’s not lobster season, and it’s illegal to fish lobsters?”

“Me son,” the Newfie said. “I didn’t fish ’em. Deez lobsters are me pets.”

“Sir, no one keeps lobsters as pets. I’ll have to issue a fine unless you can prove your claim.”

“Well, I’s had ’em since they was babes. Trained ’em meself, I did. I can lets ’em go play, and when I calls ’em they comes right back to me.”

The cop, disbelieving the man, allowed him to demonstrate. The Newfie put the lobsters on the sand and said “Go ‘n play, me b’ys”.

The lobsters immediately turned and crawled down into the water. Amazed, the cop blinked in amazement.

“That’s incredible! I’ve never seen anything like it! Now call them back.”

The Newfie turned with a sly smile and said, “Call what back?”

Can someone explain how a red lobster even had three million dollars ? Are crustaceans allowed to have bank accounts ?

Guys, I highly doubt that the absence of our regular contributors has anything to do with complaints or “wokeness”. If anything, the support that I see them getting far exceeds the complaints, I’m sure. Now, I’m not gonna try and speculate any reason for their absence, but taking a look at the first line of the comment policy might say something.

Yes, I waded one last time. LOL.. hey, follow your name, as long as it’s not Fluffendorf. ~ Jeremy Wade, hanging up the hip boots in favor of comedy

Take care, may hero dolphin Blorp “Eeeg Eeeeeg EEEEEEG” Mfokord be with you, and gesudheit.

I was at a buffet once where they had crab legs and I saw plates HEAPED to the ceiling with them!!! To me, more work than meat and I wasn’t interested.

Dolphins have to be extraterrestrials sent to be guardians on Earth. They were sent shortly after the Unicorns gave up the task and left.

Some Orca seem to be fed up with us. If we lose the dolphins, we deserve to go.

Red Lobster learned the hard way. I’m surprised, with America’s obesity problem, that places like Golden Corral can stay in business!

How could Jeremy Wade deplete the large freshwater fish? Were they an endangered species? Wasn’t there a limit on how many he could catch? Something’s fishy here…

So once Jeremy completed the river pokedex they ended it, I guess he could have moved on to shiny hunting but not many people have the patience to sit and watch that.

The money was kept hidden in a shell corporation.

Comments here are now BORING!

OK. What the heck. I’ll try a joke. I’ll be sure they’ll be nothing suggestive in it that might make a child run to a parent and ask, “What does this mean?”I imagine kids read this page, too. Stay tuned.

How about a golf joke? Golf is about much more than hitting a hole in one. It teaches honesty, how to go with the flow, focus, problem-solving, and patience. You can also do a lot with a polo shirt and khaki pants. Plus, how many sports give you the freedom to traverse a field filled with greenery and beautiful ponds.

OK. Here we go. A golfer was having a terrible round — 20-over par for the front nine with many balls lost in water or the rough. When his caddie then coughed as he steadied himself over a 12-inch putt on the 10th, he lost it. “You’ve got to be the worst caddie in the world!” he yelled. “I doubt it,” replied the caddie, dead-pan. “That would be too much of a coincidence.”

Love golf jokes!

How did I not hear about that Red Lobster promotion? I’d be there in a heartbeat, and I’d be chowing down on cheddar bay biscuits as well.

I miss the jokes and cleverer comments.

Chinese buffets used to have big crab claws , but you would see people walking away from the buffets with plates loaded high with claws… and a whole pan would be empty in no time… then one started charging extra if they were going to have crab, and finally you don’t see it anymore!

I’ve read a number of stories of dolphins helping out humans in distress, such as someone drowning, or a surfer who has fallen off a board, etc. But to intelligently arrange the humans and then swim protectively around them with a SHARK present, risking their own lives, is truly amazing and brave!

Dolphins are like elephants…they help people in need. I know, so do other animals.
