FFO With Superpowers

 

With this wonderful doctor I join Nicole´s FFO - doesn´t it make you smile big?

 

And for Gilenna:

 

Here not really sure if funny or mean, but most laugh, so: Funny.

Even better

 

 Now some "regular" funnies, how about that?

 

 Speaking of dogs.... "The shortage of skilled workers is noticeable everywhere."

 

 

Kermit ... turn on the sound, please! And meet Sandra! Oh, I love her.

 

 

 For CJ:

 

 The internet series

"These mathematicians changed the world 

 

Heron of Alexandria (c. 10–70 AD)

 

Heron of Alexandria was an ancient Greek mathematician and engineer. He discovered the square root of numbers, and in modern mathematics his formula is known as Heron's theorem."

Henry 🦁

 

Have a happy one!

 

 

Henry, It Was A Wonderful Year!

 

So, when I was in the city I followed tradition and gave Henry my thank you.  

Darn it. I thought!!! I move slow with the camera. It must have a secret speed-it-up-button! 

Maybe I go later today to try again - Henry sure loves people filming him and saying thank you and then I will be sloooooow and re-post! It´s a maybe.

 

Snow? Not much longer! Today -6C / 21F. Soon:

 

 

 

Reckon again a visit to Perth Zoo makes no sense. Last time... "animals can hide in the shade" - they did! 

 

The internet series

"These mathematicians changed the world 

 Hypatia (355–415) Hypatia, the first female mathematician whose life is relatively well documented, was an important thinker in Alexandria. She taught philosophy and astronomy."

 

Well, Henry 🦁, let´s look forward ...

 

 ... for all of us, no matter where you are.

 

 

 

 

I Admit it!

 

 

Saw this on my way home on a Litfaßsäule or Advertising column, as you call it.

And no. I never read the books, nor saw the movies - it is just not my genre - don´t hate me, I know there are many, many fans out there. 

 

Kids pay 50% less in Summer. But, as this is Braunschweig it may refer to Summer 2025!

Same with the Gospel Concert, I got all excited last December then saw. Oh, 2024. 

I love my city, I do - but oh so often you learn about events when they are over.

 

Like we missed the Buskers festival. And read about how few people came to the re-opening of our Airport - Ingo sure would´ve LOVED to go there! 

 

This is for Tom´s Signs2.

The internet series

"These mathematicians changed the world 

 Eratosthenes (276–195 BC)

 

Eratosthenes was known for his incredibly precise calculations. Over 2,000 years ago, he calculated the circumference of the Earth and the tilt of the Earth's axis with pinpoint accuracy."

 

Wow, huh!!!!! Pinpoint accuracy!

 

Henry 🦁

 

 Kidding - he just ran away...

 

 

 

Hope This Goes For Singapore Airlines, Too

Other I at least know what to ask for as alternative... 

For T-Day just scroll down...

 

 

T STands For Tired

 

 With this forest berries drink I join Elizabeth´s T.

The journal:

 

Monday: Found an interesting site about our city, on Electrification it says: "As early as 1897, for example, the first electric tram ran from Augustplatz in Braunschweig to the district administration office in Wolfenbüttel."  - no wonder fate brought me there!

AI says the first one in Germany was in Berlin 1811 and came from...Siemens! That´s where I started with a train.

Here is another gem: "The development of a vertically launching rocket is Johannes Winkler's lasting achievement in the history of space travel." He did this in Braunschweig.

 

 

Tuesday: I feel sick. Oh, please nothing serious before the trip!

 

 

Wednesday: Still sick but a bit better. Nothing but surfing and watching series.

 

 

Thursday:  Better.  Still doing "nothing".

 

 

Friday:  Nearly good. Doing "nothing".

 

For River: our red kitchen:

 

 In our old apartment it took her Daddy as long to spot the painting on the ceiling (Ingo has the best ideas, right?!!)

 

Weekend: Saturday: Good, apart from Rotz and now dry coughing, too, off to the pharmacy to get meds. Facebook´d a bit. 
Trump praised  the Liberian leader for his good English and asked him where he learned that. It´s the national language in Liberia.

I sincerely hope that was an AI-joke. 

Ingo saved the journey back from Frankfurt. Jippeee. 

Sunday: Got up 04:30 cause Ingo complained I snore. Ya. With FAT Rotz - nose closed etc. 

I remember I slept in the living room on a cot uncomfortable for weeks cause of his snoring but that is another story.

New neighbors ...stomping around. 

Dentist tomorrow. There is nothing worse for me.

C'est La Vie, Mes Amis.

What a week...

 

 

Ernie - Are You There?

Another Banksy-mural from the exhibit in Hanover we went to in January 2025.

 

AI says: "Banksy's 'Rubber Ducky' (or 'Duck and Shark') uses the innocent image of a child's bath toy with a hidden shark fin to critique consumerism, the corruption of innocence, and threats to childhood in a commercialized world."

 

With this I join Sami´s COLOURFULWORLD Monday Murals.   

The internet series: 

 

"These mathematicians changed the world  

 

Euclid (325–265 BC)

Euclid, a Greek mathematician from Alexandria, is considered today to be the 'father of geometry', and many of his theorems are still used today."

 

Amazing, isn´t it? Sooooo long ago and in use still.

 

Henry 🦁

Have a good start to the week. Mine not so much. Dentist.

 

 
  

Some Watchies In The Art Room

 

 

Yuck, huh - so much snow. This is Küchenstraße/Fallersleber, Braunschweig.

And since we have the mat in front our living room door, for Ingo - music is art, too, yes?: 

 

 

Since one day his Dad asked Ingo to describe how he does his life (just replace "did" with "do"): 

 

 

 

 Without music life would be a mistake: 

 

Here sadly only the link.... Legend. Many join! (You might turn on the sound on FB, standard is off, it´s in the video top right on the left side - do not ask me...).

Really like Freddie!!!! Shivers down my spine! Or... is it real? Either way. To Freddie!!!!

Windows open, people in cafés join. 

Our host asked me to link T-Day, so here it is. 

The internet series

"These mathematicians changed the world 

 Aristotle (384–322 BC)

 Aristotle was a great scholar with extensive knowledge in various fields, including mathematics. In his treatises, he combined mathematics and philosophy."

Other... Henry 🦁 is taking over for me today for Nicole´s Sunday in the Art Room SITAR:

I bet AI could´ve put the brush between the paw instead of giving Henry a hand but other I like the outcome. Have a happy Sunday.
