Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser 1-4-2026 — Passover

1st April, 2026: Passover.


Yes: it’s true.

It’s Wednesday … !

Which means I’ve finally finished reviewing Stranger Things: the last written and videos ones dropped, last night!


I have to say, that took some doing.

I have a Mac mini with a one terabyte, one thousand gigabyte, hard drive: as I’d been told making videos with some apps could chew up a look of space.

That wasn’t wrong: last night’s review chewed up ~680 gigabytes: mostly — from what I could see — from where I’d applied some colour layers.


Remind me to try and point Final Cut at an external drive, would you … ?

Mama’s gonna take you to the moon, tomorrow.

Actually, that’s slightly inaccurate.

NASA is planning to launch the Artemis 2 mission to the Moon, today: a moon mission that’s the first for some five decades.

It’s a first, and inspirational … and possibly the only sort of mission that really sums up the American Dream.

Personally?

I’m going to wish the crew good luck.

But am very aware of something.

Yes: this mission is going to be inspirational.

Yes: the crew will be lauded as heroes on their return.

But, yes: at launch, the crew are going to be sat on top of a missile, a missile that could so easily go the way of the Challenger.

Here’s hoping the crew return as heroes: rather than cinders …

I am very aware marks the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Apple: on 1st April, 1976.

If you’d like to mark it by buying me a Mac Studio with a huge hard drive, you’d be welcome!

Which I missed the anniversary, writing today’s Passover-themed quiz.

At any rate, if you’re marking the latter?

Have a good one.

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 5-4-2023 — Passover.

5th April, 2023: Passover.


Right … I’m up early, again!

Yes: I’ve an early morning appointment.

Believe it or not, with a lifestyle coach!

Who’s taking over my weight management course.

Yes: I can appreciate they have a job to do.

And, yes: I hope it will go well.

But — equally — it’s always struck me the word ‘lifestyle’ is very silly.

Especially as I’ve only heard it frequently used by aerobics instructors, influencers … and people who teach pilates!

~≈ß≈~

Oh … 

I had a phone tribunal, last Thursday: something long time readers will be aware of.

I still haven’t heard about the decision, as yet: so don’t know if it went my way, or not.

The letter is still due by Friday.

My bank account?

Equally as penniless.

Not knowing … ?   When I know people who were told on the day … ?

Is frustrating!

Nik Nak’s Daily Teaser — 8-4-2020: Passover

8th April, 2020


Right … It’s a quiet Wednesday.

Or, at least, I suspect to will be.

After all, I have very little to do: bar make a few videos, and do some stuff around the house.

We’ll have to see what happens … 

~≈†≈~

One thing I do know?

I’ve been watching Star Trek Picard, over the past few weeks: and recently caught the penultimate episode.

If you’re not watching it?

You’re missing a very good series!
