Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5-3-2023 — Judge Dredd.

5th March, 2023: Judge Dredd.


Yes: it’s officially the day after my birthday … and I’ve had a very nice meal with my family.

At the local Wildwood, so you know.

It’s got to be said, they do a rather good steak and chips.

It’s a shame my two sisters forgot to bring the presents … !

Still, I can’t complain, two much.

That was a rather nice steak!

Remember, yesterday, I woke up to find my radiator wasn’t working?

Resetting it — by holding the power button down for three seconds — seemed to help.

I’m still keeping something of an eye peeled: in case it does the same thing, again.

It’s not repeated the behaviour, this morning: for which I’m truly thankful.

But?

One?   I’m still keeping an eye peeled.

And two?   I’m wondering what caused that!

~≈§≈~

Oh … and JUST in case you’re wondering … ?

Yes: I also managed to finish my written and video reviews of ‘Seventeen Seconds’: the most recent episode of Star Trek Picard.

You really have to see this series.

Michelle Hurd’s Raffi, and Michael Dorn’s Worf, doing their Good Cop/Bad Cop routine?

Is funny, witty, dramatic … and very watchable!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 8-1-2021: Thank God It’s Friday … !

8th January, 2021.


You have been following the news, yes?

Then you’ll know that Capitol Hill — the US equivalent of Parliament Square, and Westminster Palace  — had pro-Trump rioters on Wednesday.

That’s still getting repercussions.

For a start, President Trump’s had to condemn the trouble, in a video posted on Twitter.


Some have suggested he’s done so because he think’s it’s the right thing to do.

Others point out he’s had two members of his cabinet resign, whilst others point out there’s talk about removing him from power, under the US Constitution’s 25th Amendment.

Even though there’s been one police death?

There’s been questions about the Capitol’s security arrangements.

With at least one person pointing out that things could well have gone differently: had this been a Black Lives Matter Protest.

Personally … ?

I can only hope things calm down.

But, frankly?

I can only hope security is ramped up on Inauguration Day.

I think someone’s going to try taking a pot shot at Joe Biden.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 28-2-2020: Friday

28th February, 2020.


Yes: it’s official.

I have an earworm … and I think I know what’s given it to me.

I’ve had my usual bowl of cornflakes, this morning.

And had the BBC’s teletext news, on whilst eating.

And noticed that a proposed safe injection site in Philadelphia had been cancelled: after wide spread opposition.

safe injection site, so you know?   Is a safe area for addicts to inject: and something that used to be called shooting galleries.

Either way … ?

The line “In any shooting gallery, where promise are made,” immediately went through my mind … and let Dire Straits’ Tunnel of Love start banging through my head!


Lovely …
