We're back!

Apologies for the break in transmission, but we are back and better than ever for the second half of 2013. As you may have noticed, while we were out of service the tiny hamsters of the interweb have been busy upgrading the blog. It may not be six months worth of improvements, but it's something.
There's plenty to look forward to on The Irrelephant Man, including AFL previews, all the goss on the Ashes, the soap opera that is Australian politics, music, as well as the blogger's staple: lists.
We'll also occasionally dip into some more serious topics such as the ideas presented in these two posts;  one on the separation of powers, the other on Australia's idiosyncratic electoral system. If they're not for you, hang around because some slightly less dry posts are coming your way soon (and no pissy biscuits!).
