By Sara Kassir | September 27, 2012

A man named Mr. Jimmy once tried to teach me how to play bridge. The only problem was that I was eight years old and counting down the minutes until this particular visit with my second grade class to the local nursing home would be over. I remember listening to his gentle explanation of card values and rules for a few minutes until one of my friends politely took the deck from him and asked, "How about Go Fish?" Much like my handwriting, my bridge abilities haven't really evolved much since the second grade. Jimmy's efforts were noble, but card playing has just never been my strong suit.
