One Day At A Time

I have received some complaints that my A-Z of poker is not being published on a satisfactory daily basis. My apologies to readers.

It's a good thing that I'm not a paid journalist, with this sort of record at missing publication deadlines.

Although, in fact, it may be the lack of an true externally-imposed deadline that is causing the problem because I am in fact pretty good with real deadlines (a legacy of many essay-crisis-all-nighters from University days).

I should say, in deference to those who studied proper essay-producing degrees, that when I say "essay crisis" it is in the metaphorical sense. I had the good fortune to study a degree where precious little actual written output was required.

However, when such hard-copy evidence of effort was required, and after not neglecting to put in the required hours at the bar/pinball/darts match etc., I would always get it done somehow.

So, I cannot properly account for my failure to produce the daily blog. I will catch up shortly. Since I don't have a time machine, the blogs will appear in a cluster and not in true daily sequence.

The reader can, if he so wishes, delay reading the entries so as to simulate the effect of daily output.

Now, blogger allows me to date the entries as if I posted them on the daily schedule and I will probably take advantage of that facility. So, for many readers it will appear as if the blogs follow the proper sequence and they will be left to wonder what on Earth I am on about in this post.
