I woke up this morning. Its so cold out my appartment heater hasnt been keeping up. I think its like low 60s in my apartment due to that...
It was like -2 or something annoyingly cold this morning. When it warmed up to 40 the other day I went out without a coat...
When it hits 20 here I have a hell of a time keeping the heat above 58 in the house - they just aren't built for cold weather. I have a friend with a nice 3 bedroom, two story house here... doesn't even have central heat. It has 6 little wall mounted space heater things.
It has been like -37 or so with the windchill this week at some times. We then got a heat wave, so it was nice on saturday, like -10 or something. People were out without much protection.

University of Michigan is cancelling classes tomorrow for weather related reasons for the first time since 1978 because of the cold. Wind chills are expected to be around -30 degrees tomorrow around here.

you mean you're not going to jump on the band wagon like 75% of the pacific north west did this year?
12th man? what a bunch of silly ****.
The 12th man is something they have been doing for a while, but it definitely got a lot more media attention this year. I remember back when they made it to the Super Bowl in Detroit (2006 maybe?), it was a thing then.
Apparently they actually took the phrase "The 12th Man" from Texas A&M, and they have to pay a small yearly fee to use it.
Doctor prescribes medicine to break down an obstruction in my colon. I didn't know my bowels were capable of what just transpired.
When I was working in the hospital we used to have to do bowel prep for people who were going to have a colonoscopy the next morning, and we had several different things we would give people to really clean them out. One of them, however, was quite ironically named Golytley and it caused patients to do anything but go lightly.
Chalice: My first thought was that 2 would be ideal, but after reviewing my personal lists and their curves I see a very large peak at 3 cmc, so unless you are hating something specific three seems the most potent. Two is nice in a way because I think it actually protects the Chalice better while still stopping plays, and you can always add another charge counter if you need to.
I am really loathe to ever ban cards because in-game solutions are so much more healthy, but I think I might be on the side of banning SP. It really pains me to say it even though I have been really tired of seeing the card played so often, I did not think it needed to be banned. Now, however, I am really leaning towards it being unhealthy for EDH.
Also, Galspanic- I think you are either underrating Homeward Path, or don't play in a meta with a ton of theft. It comes into play untapped, taps for colorless, and easily and repeatedly can yoink back your critters what have been stolen by bandits and harlots.
Bandits and Harlots! lol, love you, that's awesome.
Soo... I'm totally trying to make my posts at least somewhat meaningful and responsive, but I might totally be spamming towards the 1000 mark <.< This is 994. Not that I'm counting. I'm totally not. I swear.

A) I have 8 infractions.
B) We see plenty of theft, but when looking at colorless utility lands it's usually in 12th-15th place. There's just a lot of other lands in that small space that apply to more situations more often. It's a good card and does what it's supposed to do with brutal efficiency, but would I rather tear a sword off your dude or get my Aven Mindcensor back from you? Would I rather give all my guys deathtouch and lifeline or get my already cast Snapcaster back from you?
Portland has made a wimp out of me.

When you absolutely, positively got to kill every permanent in the room, accept no substitutes.

I see Jivan, Monkmiroro-whatshisname and that new Mimeo primer guy suspended.
What's up? Isn't there a thread to see the reasons behind those suspends and bans? I always liked looking at that but could never find it back.

Here you go. I follow it like some obituary.

Yea, me too. It is really not something I am proud of, but sometimes I can't help myself but to dig down and find the offenses.

Well I had an infraction once.
Needless to say, I'm a tough son of a Boar.
Wait, a warning is an infraction right?

But most of mine are funny. Aside from the few frothing at the mouth screaming fits I have at ignorant people.
