Alright, it’s too quiet again.

Sooo, I was asked the meaning of the 2S in the following auction:

1H-1S-P-P

X-P-2S

Hi Jim2,

It may follow that a victim of TOCM TM may also be, by definition, more or less, a charter member of the “Bridge Theater of the Absurd” or perhaps more likely able to decipher its existence.

Perhaps s. void, h. x, d. QJ10xxx, c. QJ10xxx would be its poster child.

Please demote the 10 of clubs to only the nine enabling our answer to show more originality. Also “for everything there is a season”.

One word of caution, please do not pass this on, or at the very least, where you read this!
