Your Typical Network Doodle News Reader (usually formally a Weather Reader):
“News at 11“
An expression of total non-surprise at the revelation of something that is supposedly new and/or exciting, but is actually old hat. Often used in a sarcastic context.
Person A: “A new report just released says that the sky is blue.”
Person B: “News at 11.”

I once was a former USAF Weather Observer that became a Weather Forecaster!
Taegu (now Daegu) Korean Air Base, South Korea, circa 1969.
There were rats that ran amuck in the Weather Station, day and night!
Did they ever bite you? That would explain a lot!

I lost what I wrote, so I just wanted to say that you make me laugh every time you ‘say’ anything, and I wondered whether you are a stand-up comedian?

A fan of Steinbeck and Poe and that damn Raven! Do you know that Poe only made about $9 from his book, The Raven?
He should have written a poem, “Quoth the Poor Church Mouse!”

I will indeed!
Are you familiar with Srinivasa Ramanujan who was an Indian mathematician who lived during the British Rule in India. Though he had almost no formal training in pure mathematics, he made substantial contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and fractions, including solutions to math problems then considered unsolvable. He eventually had a postal partnership with English mathematician G.H Hardy and then did his final work at the University of Cambridge, England. He died in India at age 32 of dysentery.
He once said, “An equation for me has no meaning unless it expresses a thought of God.”
See the movie and the book, The Man Who Knew Infinity!

I love you!! Thank you so much. I didn’t know about him, and I will order the book if it is not out of print. Could you advise if you know where in the US can be both? THANK YOU!!
It means so much to me. I am involved in work with the disadvantaged
communities in India and we need the role models.
