Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 22-2-2025 — Kyle MacLachlan

22nd February, 2025: Kyle MacLachlan

Right … it’s now officially Saturday.

And I’ve got “ Prisencolinensinainciusol” earworming its way through my head … !

It’s possibly the one song you can’t mention on X or Bluesky: because the title’s got two many characters … !

Why I’ve got it in my head?

Is possibly easier to say: I’ve caught an advert on YouTube that uses it as a tune.

Heigh-ho!

~≈♩≈~

Have you heard the term, ‘cuckooing’?

It’s where a vulnerable person’s home is taken over by drug dealers: so it can be used as a base.

I’ve known it happen in my area: at least once in Railway Square, Victoria Road/Masefield Court and here on Rollason Way.

It’s not nice, I know that.

So … ?

I’m thankful that the government’s planning to introduce legislation to make it illegal.

Anything that helps can only be good.

Dune: The Review …

23rd November, 2018.

OK … 

I think I managed to totally ruining that intro video, there.

Yes: I’ve used the Pitch Shift Down button on the whole clip: rather than the few seconds I meant to use it one.

Cie la Vie!

If you’ll excuse the term.

At ANY rate … ?

It’s getting late … 

But I wanted you to know I’ve watched another movie.

Yes: I’ve finally decided to sit down and watch — and then write about — the David Lynch film that is … 

Dune …

Dune — The Extended Cut: Ummm …

1st March, 2017.

You know: this may be one of those rare — for now — times where I go to bed, leaving a post unfinished.

I don’t like doing that.

Well … 

Not often, at any rate.

But am very aware that I’ve had a free evening, tonight.

And watched a film: that’s three hours long.

The extended cut of David Lynch’s Dune.

The one he took his name OFF of.

It was … 

Long …

The Daily Teaser — 22-2-2015

You know, I do love a good documentary: really.

And Aunty Beeb does do a good one.

The one I’ve got on, at the mo … ?   Reginald D Hunter’s Songs Of The South … !

Kind of a potted history of the music of the southern: covering, in this first episode, the various country styles of Kentucky and Tennessee.

Fascinating insight into the music, AND the man himself, I should add: you can tell Reg really don’t do square-dancing.   As he’s just said, the black South and the white South were and are too different places!

Especially when we remember black-face minstrelry … !
