I searched the RevTK and didn't find any mention of this.
But there is a great long-running series of grammar articles called "Pera Pera Penguin".

http://www.yomiuri.co.jp/dy/columns/0002/

It is published in "The Daily Yomiuri" newspaper and is available afterwards
as a free PDF download.

Posted link in Essential Resources sticky thread.

Anyway, I find there is a lot of grammar in these articles that
is hard to find anywhere else. Lots of details that I never even
knew existed until I read about them in pera pera penguin.

The most recent article (as of right now) is about blood type and
phrases/personalities related to specific blood types.
