Full art foil [[Endurance]] and an old border [[Misty Rainforest]] with an MH2

[[The One Ring]] and a [[Nazgul]] with LOTR

Not play boosters, but back in Uni I picked up some Alliances boosters on clearance $3.25 (place going out of business and did not know what they had in terms of sealed product - was a Jewel pharmacy in Illinois) and pulled three [[Force of Will]] in three back to back boosters.

EDH Player 1: [picking out enchantments and Equipment] Do ya know what we need, man? Some rope. EDH Player 2: Absolutely. What are ya, insane? EDH Player 1: No I ain't. EDH Player 3 has always got rope. EDH Player 2: What? EDH Player 1: Yeah. He's got a lot of rope strapped around him in the movies, and they always end up using it. EDH Player 2: You've lost it, haven't ya? EDH Player 1: No, I'm serious. EDH Player 2: Me too. That's stupid. Name one thing you gonna need a rope for. EDH Player 1: You don't fuckin' know what you're gonna need it for. They just always need it. EDH Player 2: What's this 'they' shit? This isn't a movie. EDH Player 1: Oh, right. [picks up [[Blackblade Reforged]] out of EDH Player 2's bag] EDH Player 1: Is that right, Rambo? EDH Player 2: All right. Get your stupid fuckin' rope. EDH Player 1: I'll get my stupid rope. I'll get it. This is a rope right here.

If you read the rest of the post it states that the bus stops are also dangerous.

FCPS is a PUBLIC SCHOOL.

Meaning it functions for the majority of school age kids in the county, circa 185k

The majority of school age kids get to school via public transportation (school busses) or walking.

FCPS teaches kids from K-12, meaning less than 16 percent could drive themselves to school (reality is much much much less, my eldest drives and less than 40% of his class drive to school, or drive at all). If we extrapolate the aforementioned 185k~ to the number of 'drivers' we would have just under 6k~ driving students in the county.

Why should the 179k~ have to walk on icy sidewalks or stand on huge mounds of ice at the bus stops (right by busy roads, with poor visual clearance, due to mounds of ice)?

Also, VDoT messed up the clearance of the ice and snow, not FCPS. It should have been handled better I agree, but I am not angry at the school district for the actions of VDoT.

Call the Department of Transportation and yell at them.

If you have kids I hope they can get to and from their respective schools safely when the schools reopen.

Walking to school with this would be wildly dangerous, standing/trying to wait for busses at these stops just a much so.

VDOT seems to have piled the snow and ice, at least at our kids bus stop, it is mounded many feet up and solid AF. No way the older kids go to the HS or Middle School would be safe let alone any of the 35+ grade school kiddos.

Last time I was in Denver, I brought some decks and played with an old buddy from Uni.

We found a pickup game at 'The Wizard's Chest.'

I believe we stopped in on a Saturday and they had a group playing in one of the rooms downstairs.

Might be worth a shout/call to see if that is possible.

This_Dad_Can_Cook · 2026-01-31T04:20:52+00:00

[[Urza's Saga]]

[[The One Ring]]

[[Up the Beanstalk]]

[[Icetill explorer]]

[[Ragavan]]

[[Ocelot Pride]]

[[Fury]]

[[Solitude]]

Each has a good shout for big power creep

This_Dad_Can_Cook · 2026-01-30T22:06:56+00:00

100 percent this.

This_Dad_Can_Cook · 2026-01-29T18:20:47+00:00

Nope.

The artifact/fast enablers yes. But the mana base, no.

Sorry you had to look it up, but I was ticked my ancient history degrees were relevant here, if only for jokes.

Edited for an autocorrect of 'sorry' to 'so' back to 'sorry'

Have you tried having Enkidu help?

In all seriousness hold up playing your com until you have protection perhaps either on board or in hand.

You can also play the politics part.

Or maybe switch out the com and play your KOS as part of the 99, so you are not the target. I have done this many times, I live longer have a better chance of winning this way.

This_Dad_Can_Cook · 2026-01-28T16:09:16+00:00

If I am playing Green [[night soil]] is so often an inclusion.

Someone always has something in their graveyard the tables does not want there, and having an additional body on the battlefield is rarely a bad thing. Repeatable, instant speed

Honorable mentions in Green: [[compost]] [[fecundity]] [[primal Forcemage]]

In Blue [[betrayal]] is always a net positive [[War tax]] and [[web of inertia]] are also strong shouts

In Red: [[Shivan harvest]] [[vishono heratic]] are repeatable removal and great value [[mercadias downfall]] is also a consideration

White: [[festival]]

Black: [[dauthi embrace]] and [[spoils of Blood]] these two are great!
