TODAYS TRIVIA

The bell in the clock tower of the House of 
Parliament is London's Big Ben; not the 
clock tower itself, as is usually supposed!

In America the pigs sound is interpreted as 
"oink, oink".

However, elsewhere in the world it is heard 
as...

   "kryoo, krool" - Russian
   "groin, groin" - French
   "grunz! - German
   "neff, neff" - Swedish
   "hulu, hulu" - Mandarin Chinese
   "rok, rok" - Serbo-Croatian
   "buu, buu" - Japanese
   "crum, crum" Poland
   "ood, ood" - Thai
   "hrju, hrju" - Ukrainian
   "ut, it" - Vietnamese

Depressed men are two to four times more 
likely to take their own lives than depressed 
women.
