Hello - I am looking for some feedback on a couple of things. I was in
Chicago for the Oils show on 4th of July, and later that night ended up
watching a match of Australian Rules Football on Fox Sports World. It was
pretty interesting - Melbourne was one of the teams - but I could not for the
life of me figure out the point system or scoring rules. Yes, I know, silly
American - I admit it. I am more of a baseball fan and enjoy watching a lot
of sports, but this had me baffled. Maybe it was the "Guinness haze". So, if
someone out there could explain the basics of Australian Rules Football, I'd
appreciate it - best to contact me offline as I do not want to take up lots
of space on the list!
Also, I'd be interested to know if others have read the book "Capricornia". I
read it before my vacation and it was interesting, wild, disturbing, etc.
There may have been earlier conversation about the book but I am not sure
when that took place. If you could point me in the right direction, that
would be appreciated as well.
Thanks everyone - good to hear and see the Oils again and I look forward to
hearing some of those live recordings soon!
Peace,
