better yet, you can use semantic markup and descendant selectors (and 
leave the classes out).

for example:

<ul id="navmenu">
   <li><a href="aboutresults.html">about <em>results</em></a></li>

#navmenu li a em {
font-weight:bold;
color:#f00;
}

If you must use classes, don't name them based on their appearance.  
You, or your client may later decide that they want these elements to 
be grey and italic, and then having a class named bldred will be 
confusing.
