I think Kevin was trying to clarify that "Portia" refers to a motorbike, since some people might think that he meant the Merchand Of Venice character.

I'm so glad you said that, LR - it's just what I was thinking, and when I looked up "lists of muscles" on t'web, there weren't any Js. I even wondered if the jugular vein had a muscle nearby ...
There weren't any Ks either - would it be cheating if I skipped to L?
