I have a dog that is vocally talented - an immense range - but I assure you from my neighbor's point of view it ain't singin'!

There are reality TV shows about talented animals i think, lol

Do you mean Big Brother? Some of them are hairy, but few of those animals are talented.

From the opposite end of the bridge spectrum, I just started a blog. Unlike the experts, it's not about the things I know. It's mostly about all the stuff I don't know about bridge. http://badmonsters.blogspot.com/

I've started a blog, http://dcrcbridge.blogspot.com/

It's mainly for bidding theory. The first page is a bit dull with a lot of general obvious stuff. But the main aim is to pick on the systems I dislike and explain why I find them so bad, which should be more fun :huh:

I have recently started posting the text and hands from my free online lessons in blogs.

Actually I started this a couple of years back but did not continue it for long.

If you are interested here are the links:

BIL Lessons

Acol Club Bridge Lessons

The text is pretty random since I do not edit it much from my BBO chat logs.

I have also put the SAYC notes by Mark London with some comments by me about my perception of where a modern style might differ - RKCB, negative doubles to 3 or higher etc.

SAYC Notes

I have also started a private blog in which I keep a database of hands that practice. blogger.com has an a great feature where you can label a post with multiple lables and then quickly sort the posts by any label. So for example I label hands as 1NT Opening (Weak or Strong as appropriate as we play a variable NT), Jacoby Transfer, Singleton after Jacoby, Cue-Bids, RKCB ... etc

Then I can quickly later find all hands where we have used RKCB or opened a weak 1NT or bid a bad slam or missed a good slam or whatever label I or my partner finds useful.

Great that you restarted blogging, however I still don't see any new posts... :unsure:

I recently discovered the blog by Ray Lee. I recommend it highly.

Ray is the principal of Master Point Press, the world's leading publisher of bridge books, a former President of the CBF, was editor and Publisher of MasterPoint (?) the defunct monthly bridge magazine. As you'd expect he writes well, and what he writes is worth reading.
