The name's Friday, Jack Friday


Some people have asked why I picked the name "Jack Friday".

It comes from an old US TV cop series.

Detective Sergeant Joe Friday was a fictional character created and played by American actor, television producer, and writer Jack Webb (1920-1982) on the radio and television series Dragnet.

In 1987, actor Dan Aykroyd starred as Joe Friday, supposedly the original Joe Friday's nephew, in the comedy film Dragnet.

Friday's catchphrase was; "Just the facts, ma'am, just the facts".

And thus Jack Friday (aka Insider) was born.
