Hi, I'm Peter aka '''Shirt58'''. My username comes from the [[field hockey]] [[Guernsey_(clothing)#Use_in_Australian_sport|shirt]] I was allocated some while ago. Yes, men do play field hockey. And [[Tasmania]] is not a fictional place.<br /><br />

[[File:Olympiasieger-2004-Deutschland.jpg|thumb|200px|This is not the Australia men's national field hockey team at the 2004 Summer Olympics.]]The [[Australia men's national field hockey team]] has a long tradition of being the the best in the world and then somehow managing not to win the Olympic gold medal, with [[Field hockey at the 2004 Summer Olympics – Men's tournament|one exception]].

I have very strong opinions about almost everything. My views are unconventional, iconoclastic and coruscatingly pragmatic. [[WP:NPOV|You will find nothing of the sort in my contributions to the Wikipedia project]].

==Mockpuppet account==
I have an [[Wikipedia:Legitimate_uses_of_alternative_accounts#Legitimate_uses_of_alternative_accounts|allowable alternate account]] - [[User:Shirt58's testing account]].

[[File:Train wreck at Montparnasse 1895 FAIL.jpg|thumb|200px|Somewhat of a star in [[invertebrate zoology]], but just [[Dyscalculia|didn't have the maths]] for most of the other stuff.]]

* Ok, I studied [[Italian|Italian]] in Secondary School for four years, did a semester of [[Middle English]] and majored in [[Japanese language|Japanese]]. I also took a semester at a private language school in [[Chinese language|Chinese]] that would have totaled 20 hours tution, tops. That's the whole box and dice in my formal language study.
* My [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=block&user=&page=User%3AShirt58&year=&month=-1&tagfilter= Block log] will answer a lot of those kind of questions.
* For example, the connection between ''[[Gabrielle d'Estrées et une de ses sœurs]]'' and Ernst's ''[[Murdering Airplane]]''.
* Possibly, but I still love [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-1Ul3fteLps this] [[Pets (song)|song]].
* Now you're raking up ancient history from my early University days. I was considered to be too much interested in [[English Literature|Eng. Lit.]] to be a proper Languages nerd. And to be too much of a Languages nerd to be considered a proper Eng. Lit. nerd. Ah, my College days, the best eleven years of my life...
* "When, on their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary, Jerome had played his parents an ethereal, far more beautiful version of '[[Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen song)|Hallelujah]]' by a kid called [[Jeff Buckley|Buckley]], Kiki had thought yes, that's right, our memories are getting more beautiful and less real every day." <small> [[Zadie Smith]], ''[[On Beauty]]'', [[2005 in literature|2005]]</small>
* Public service job. Task: explain completely in fewest words.
* OK, I admit it: I am a Flying Spaghetti Marxist, completely committed to the Saucialist cause. Pasta la Revolución siempre!
* In the first (and only) year of [[Bachelor of Science]] studies, I gave myself extra time to study for Zoology 101 by not bothering to turn up for the other subjects' exams.
* New bicycle shoes and pedals!
* "Jackson Pollock was final proof to the philistines that the lunatics had taken over the asylum of modern art; however, the function of the philistines is to be slain." <small>[[Robert Hughes (critic)|Robert Hughes]], [[The Shock of the New]], 1980</small>
