    If Branson had an earthquake... how would Ripley's know if they had any damage?

    Was listening to a favorite podcast yesterday. One of the hosts was talking about a gift her husband bought for a friend: a taxidermed two-headed duckling ON A SKATEBOARD...Guess who I IMMEDIATELY thought of???

    Making that gorgeous lion out of scrap tires, a major polluter - if someone could mass produce them at a reasonable price, I ' d buy one. What a great way to repurpose trash into something beautiful!

    I don't care how big their roll of toilet paper is, one trip to Taco Bell and it'll be used up in a day.

    Whoever took the time to put cloths on fleas had way too much time on thier hands!
    Hey Jacob, I just saw a story for the world's largest yard sale. It starts on route 127 in Michigan, and goes all the way down to Georgia. I'm not sure if it's still going on right now, but you might want to make a note of it for next year. Maybe you and Adam the Woo could make a road trip out of it.

  • @TrinlayK
    @TrinlayK Před 6 lety

    the patent papers on rolled toilet paper shows it as rolled over the top. So that's at least the *intended* way to do it.
    My cats haven't done it, but apparently if you have cats, or human toddlers, putting it up as "rolling from under" keeps it from being piled up on the floor.

    I love this place I usually go here every time I'm in Branson. Because I only live an hour and a half away!!!!!! I remember going here before the museum was remodeled and they had a limo with a heart shaped hot tub in the back where the toilet paper roll is and a matchstick aqua car where the coffins are! Keep up the good work Jacob!!!!

    "Dead... like a doll's eyes." Love it when you say that. 👍
    That leaf so synonymous with Canadians is a maple leaf, BTW... 😄
    BTW, the original diagram in the patent application for the toilet paper holder agrees with you; the diagram shows it hanging overhand. 👍
    "Women will never get to see these." Well, female subscribers to your channel will... 😄
    "Uke-wee-wee..." 😆
    Your audio is fine in this one, BTW... must've been just a temporary issue... 👍
