Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 2-9-2017: Keanu

Has anyone bee watching Game of Thrones, recently?

I have to admit, I have.

I’ve been throughly enjoying it, too.

Granted the sex, violence, swearing, more sex, plotting, magic, exposition, even more sex, giant walls, all of it modelled on various bits of English history — with added sex and dragons — isn’t going to be for everyone.

But it?   And season seven?

Have been riveting to watch.

I’ve got to give the show’s makers credit: they’ve made fantasy a TV phenomena.

And season eight, the last?   Out next year?

Could well go out with a bang … 

Oh, and more sex …

*        Might just have to keep an eye open for it, Olga: although I doubt there’s a version for my ageing version of Safari.   And saying that about Bobby Fisher … ?   Reminds me that one of Steve Jobs’ exe was a mental health professional.   And, much as she loved him, even after they split?   That didn’t stop her thinking about assorted personality disorders … 

†        The film, you mean, Debbi?   Yeah, dicey’s one word!   (Oh … President Trump’s trying to get congressional approval for aide to Texas, post storm.   And is threatening To shut down the government, to fund the Wall.   I’m surprised he hasn’t blamed Harvey on the Mexicans …)   (Sorry about the Nine, Debbi: the answer I wanted, to yesterday’s fourth question?   Was A … !)
