Well old chap, when light passes through the soap bubbles, which have multiple surfaces, the light is scattered in different directions, revealing the natural colour of light (which is white).

The heaviest lion on record weighed, an amazing, 375 kg (826 lb for those of you, not on the metric system). I think that may be twice the weight of Donald Trump.

'Inkling'

If you change 'i' to an 'ä' in Swedish, you have the word 'änkling' which means widower.
