Isn´t that some umbrella?! Coooool..., says Kalle - in the background and according to wiki "the greatest mathematician since antiquity" - he must know! Addendum!!!!
Wiki explains: "Gauss eventually had conflicts with his sons. He did not want any of his sons to enter mathematics or science for "fear of lowering the family name", as he believed none of them would surpass his own achievements." - oh, by golly!!!
Off-topic, wiki also gives away this: " Eric Temple Bell said that if Gauss had published all of his discoveries in a timely manner, he would have advanced mathematics by fifty years."
Wow, what a crazy guy stands here right around the corner?
Finally we had not only dull, grey weather but RAIN! YAY!!! And if you have that earworm,here goes:
OR RATHER!!!! Certainly!
One of my fav movies, bitter-sweet as it is. I sure was there! Alice, Coober Pedy... Pics to come.
Henry 🦁
He hides in the Lion´s cave (OK, that was a docu on our local first league American Football Team).
Rain makes me happy! I´m a Rainy Day People-kind -of-guy after all... (Thank you, Bill)
And as I type the wind is RAGING outside... March is stepping in like a Lion!

..few things beat an umbrella on a rainy day!
I watched the rain video, then it had two advertisements for dancing and ice skating, so I watched the ice skating one, then another and another and another, I could watch those all day! Finally came back here.
Now that red umbrella.
Coffee is on and stay safe
Priscilla Queen Of The Desert was a funny film, and that performance deserve a standing ovation.
'The prince of mathematics' is not so happy with the rain ... he just sits there to "oxidize"!
I love to walk in the rain in the summer ... 'I'm singin' in the rain
Just singin' in the rain...' But in general I don't like rain ... here in the Netherlands it rains quite a bit! Henry baby, where are you?!
Enjoy your Sunday, baby!
Ich hab dich liiiieb mein 🐘 xoxo
Tom, I love the sound of rain!

River! You really watch the ads?! I dunno how you get it presented, but if you see a button "Überspringen" you can click that to skip it, LOL! I NEVER watch them!
____
Ella, yes, it´s a very bitter-sweet movie, soooo beautiful!
LOL, the Prince, yes,not so happy 🤣
Nothing beats the sound and smell of a rainy summer day, I so agree, I skip the brolly then, too! Feel the rain on your skin, soooo good.
Henry? He´s on the way to you 🦁😁
Have a good Sunday, my dear, ich hab dich liiiieb mein 🦋 xoxo
Ewww, snow, glad we´re done with that! Wishing you warm weather... and rain!
A good view of the statue.
People take pics of him often.
Hope that rain washes away Corrina!
Would be too easy, would it. But I´m with you!
Happy Pi Day! And circular food is acceptable to celebrate though pie is traditional.
You're right -- that's a wonderful umbrella. I'd love one just like it! I hope you have a happy Pi day!
I need to watch Priscilla Queen of the Desert. Maybe it it should be called queen of the dessert in honor of Pi day (pie being the dessert but in English pronounced the same) oh that's bad of me.. I think you mentioned Kalle before. I remember it was my Dad's nickname, but perfect for pi. Happy end of the weekend Iris.
Oh that's really a rainy day Iris, how lucky you are! Still blue skies here but not quite as hot thank goodness! Loved the music clip from Pricilla Queen of the Desert, was such a good movie, think it's time I watched it again 😉
Priscilla Queen of the Desert is a great movie.
I quite like the sound of falling rain, but it makes me want to stay home either in bed or on the sofa watching a movie.
Enjoy your rain Iris :)
What you said about Gauss made me chuckle. Amazing guy, but rather odd. LOL. We have been having too much rain over here.
Great umbrella and I really like the Queen of the Desert.
I Haven't Thought About Priscilla In Ages - Does That Ever Take Me Back - And Love That Pink Umbrella
Cheers
The umbrella and rucksack really stand out. Vibrant colours!
I have a bright red umbrella too!
I don't always watch the ads, almost never, but if you watch your rain video, then see the ads that come in place of it, that's where I saw the ice skating one and I love to watch people ice skating or ice dancing.
not advertisements exactly, but new you tube videos to watch, I just watched again and today there are different choices, no ice skating.
CJ, at least the muffin offers the correct form :-)

Jeanie, I really was thinking about braving up and asking wherer he had it from. But... chicken, me...
____
Erika, yes queen of the dessert, LOL!
"Kalle" is everywhere here in Braunschweig. Funny your Dad was called like that also.
____
Grace, yes to all 😁
____
Sami, I love that movie - and soooo beautyful you can hear the rain at home, I think I´d cuddle under the blankets, too, but we can´t hear i9t, sadly - used to, when I still lived with my parents, oh, and in Hildesheim, too...
____
gigi, yes he was odd! A genius... oh,send all rain over, please!
____
Nicole, funny you all know that movie! I think it was never on TV here in Germany!
____
Padre, yes, great movie and sad I didn´t brave up to ask where he got the brolly from...
____
Bill, you´re right, thr rucksack stands out, too - the brolly just got 100% attention from me!
____
RedPat I thought the form was so outstanding, nö? Might be from China (we have lots of Chinese students here).
____
River, ahhhh, that´s what you meant, yes, you can spend hours once you started :-)
Ice skating, looooong ago, I´m too old now, LOL. Too afraid to fall and break a bone...
I like the look of the umbrella.
All the best Jan
