ALRIGHT! We get it! Michael Wilson is the ‘heart and soul’ of Port Adelaide. I hope that means you lose.

I love my blog, but the poor old thing has been neglected lately. Stoopid work. Anyway, a few bits and pieces, then on to the good stuff.
I rode about 100 kilometres yesterday, and now I’m as stiff as ten men. And it wasn’t any of that flat seaside stuff that those round-the-bay-in-a-day hill dodgers love, [...]

Human Nature: Round 2
Great news! I’ve been sledged by a Human Nature fan for my previous diatribe against said band:
Why is this great news? Well, I get to methodically deconstruct an incoherent and indefensible rant, while simultaneously laying the boot into Human Nature - again!
