An end to the explorer culture
Last night from the Ripley’s Believe It Or Not Odditorium here in San Francisco where my family and I are visiting, I emailed a picturesque postcard of Kimberly Gordon the pop-eyed woman to a couple of friends. They got the text — but no image.
And so I say curses to these merchant heirs to Robert Ripley! He traveled the whole world and collected and preserved incredible artifacts that were testament to the ingenuity of humankind — and they can’t even do an email correctly!

That’s what you get for buying the “regular” admission. Next time, you’ll buy the Premium upgrade, you anti-capitalist tourist!

I bought 5 admissions, which means it cost me about eighty bucks to get in — Believe It or Not!
