Funny thing= animals make different sounds depending on which country they’re in. Ducks go quack in England, kvack in Sweden, coin in France. Cats, however, all go meow!
Zipper, today’s most popular fastening device, was first invented and patented in 1851, by Elias Howe. However, it was relatively unknown until it was patented and marketed by Whitcomb Judson, in 1893. The zipper was not popular in the fashion industry until the 1930s.
- he credit of being the inventor of the Zipper is given to Whitcomb Judson, who was the first one to market a device called the ‘clasp locker’, forty years after Elias’ patent. Judson was a person who had special interest in gadgets and often experimented with them. It so happened that a friend of his had a stiff back, due to which he found tying and untying his shoes very difficult. This is when Judson came up with a sliding fastener, that could be opened and closed just by using one hand. He called it the clasp locker.

Rover, with your profound insights, you should be teaching Philosophy 101!

Actually, Japanese cats go “nya” or sometimes “nyan”.

Czech cats go “marrroo”. At least that’s the sound my grandpa would make when he saw one. He didn’t speak English.

Well, I think a dog sounds more like it goes “bark” than “root”. And by the way, cats are named after socks and boots, not the other way around.

It beats “Automatic, Continuous Clothing Closure” now doesn’t it?

The best cartoonist bark was "Sandy’s “Arf, Arf” in “Little Orphran Annie”.

Cats usually don’t go “meow” unless they are distressed.

I stand corrected about cats sounding the same all over, thanks to YokohamaMama and Two Cats.

My cat meows all the time! She will just sit and mew at me, at the walls, the floor!
