Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5-12-2022 — Little Richard.

5th December, 2022: Little Richard.

Right … it’s Monday.

And?

I’ve got the heating on.

It’s cold!

And, frankly?

I’m hoping the weather outside will warm up.

I’ve got a meeting at the Job centre, today.

I’d hate to freeze on the way … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5th December, 2021.

5th December, 2021.

Right … 

Today’s a Sunday: one that — suspiciously or otherwise — is going to be quiet.

Well … 

Bar watching tonight’s episode of Dr Who.

My big question from last week’s episode still remains.

Will Bel’s child turn out out to be the Doctor, herself?

~≈Ü≈~

I’m assuming you watch the news?

Then you’ll know of the most recent school shooting in the US: in Michigan.

The shooter, Ethan Crumbley, has been charged as an adult, from what I know: one count of terrorism, four counts of first-degree murder, seven counts of assault with intent to murder and 12 counts of possession of a firearm.

What caught my attention?

Was that his parents, James and Jennifer Crumbley, have also been charged: with involuntary manslaughter.

From what I can gather?   They bought the gun their son used in the attack: during the Black Friday sales.

And either gave it too their son: or did not necessarily prevent him from accessing the family weapons cabinet.

I keep wondering several things.

How on EARTH has someone in the US allowed a child access to a gun?

And what Bob Geldof would make of this.

From what I recall of his autobiography, I can remember him being shocked that Brenda Spencer* — the school shooter who’d inspired I Don’t Like Mondays — had been bought a gun for her birthday, by her parents.

The more things change?   The more they stay the same.

5th December, 2019.

Right then … 

I’m back at my course, today.

I’m … looking forward to it.

Although I have an issue.

My left shoulder’s been aching, recently: and I think I know why.

I’m left handed: and this course has seen me doing more physical hand writing than I’ve down for a decade!

Net result?

An ache!

Oy veh … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5th December, 2018.

5th December, 2018.

Yes: I’m officially going nuts.

No, really.

Go have a look at the introduction video, there.

That one at the start of this post.

I’ve just realised I’ve said today’s Tuesday.

In spite of the fact the day’s Wednesday.

Can someone slap me, throw a bucket of water at the cat, and make sure I’ve taken my medication … ?

I think that’s possibly the only way to … you know … 

Don’t get stuff like this wrong … !

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5th December 2017

Hmmm … 

I mentioned, yesterday, that Nadine Dorries, MP, was rather lax with her computer’s login.

Quite what will happen with that, I don’t know.

The rules that cover parliamentary staff — the people who work in the libraries, bars and corridors of power — don’t cover MPs: who work in, not for, Parliament.

So, problem there, then … !

Unless, of course, you’re the UK’s data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office.

Reminding us, and our MPs, that — whilst sharing login passwords with friends, families, co-workers and who-ever else — doesn’t violate any data protection law, there’s one basic tenet of data protection that’s important.

Someone who has sensitive information on their system — personal, commercial or medical — has to take at least basic security steps.

Keeping things updated helps, being careful opening email attachments from people/groups your don’t know … 

Oh … 

And not handy your password to others …
