    Fav Movie?

    I dug the whole Lethal Weapon series, myself. The chemistry between Gibson and Glover was tremendous, the one-liners great, and the action was non-stop. Honorable mention for Ladyhawke and Dragonslayer, in the fantasy department, and the Terminator movies for sci-fi. I liked the effects in...

    Most Disruptive Multiplayer Card - Nominations

    Winter Orb. Especially when you drop the Relic Barrier/Icy Manipulator to take away the disadvantage to yourself. Can you tell I'm old school? ;) TomB CPA Member

    I AM SCIFI!

    Lately, I've been watching the movies more than the shows on Sci-Fi, but then, as I said on the other TV thread, I miss a lot of prime time programming due to my shift at work. Sliders is cool, and I like it when I can catch Battlestar Glactica there. Friday the 13th brings back some memories...

    Best TV show?

    Stargate The X-Files The Naked Truth (I catch it every morning right before I get ready for work, and it always cracks me up) Obviously, I don't get to watch a lot of prime time TV during the week. :D TomB CPA Member

    Best Band Ever?

    So you're saying you think Zepplin was a mediocre band? You're kidding. TomB CPA Member

    Demographic Poll

    I've met a few players of other races (I'm a suburban white boy myself), but it's rare. I think it has to do with the Fantasy theme in Magic. For some people, the idea of slinging imaginary fireballs at each other just isn't as appealing to certain ethnic groups as it is to others. D&D was/is...

    Idea to continue a grouping of five!

    I agree. Those are terrific! TomB CPA Member

    AOL instant messenger?

    Bathtubs? :D My ICQ number is 60577320. I'm usually not on until after midnight, Chicago time, so I'm sometimes hard to get a hold of. I'd be happy to add any of you to my contact list though, so if you're up late give me a holler. TomB CPA Member

    AOL instant messenger?

    I know. I hate it. But it came free with my computer for 3 months, so I thought 'What the Hell'. My cable provider promised their ISP would be online by mid-January, but it's no luck so far, and now I'll have to start PAYING for the AOL access. My phone lines (apparently) are too old for most of...

    Lucky Charms

    I remember a deck a friend called "Lucky Charms" a few years ago. It was Atogs with those 1cc artifacts like Crystal Rod and Iron Star, Tablet of Epityr, and things like Ankh of Mishra. It wasn't a very good deck, but it was fun. Oh, and I'd go main deck with the Seals. Weenie decks should be...

    AOL instant messenger?

    I'm currently on AOL (still waiting on my cable provider to get their ISP up :( ). My screen name is TomB11061. Post me a message sometime when I'm online, and I'd be happy to try and talk you through the ICQ process, though I have to admit I'm pretty new at it too. I'll put you on my Buddy...

    Art, old versus new, and artist

    I like some of the old art, and some of the new. Doug Shuler's work is great, but I also like DiTerlizzi, Ron Spenser, Thomas Gianni, Rebecca Guay, Therese Neilsen, Pete Venters, and Dan Frasier, to name a few. Brom is excellent too. I think the list of great Magic artists is indeed a long one...

    Eureka!

    Umm, I have, though not all that often recently. I remember when there were no "Types" of Magic - there was just Magic, and it included everything from Mind Twist to ChannelBall. The game was still fun then, and it survived, and even thrived. Don't forget, we're also not talking about using...

    Eureka!

    Hey, I've a wild idea. Why not have WotC reprint the old cards in a special set with the word "Proxy" printed across the face of them? That should protect the collector's investments, and give new players the opportunity to play with semi-authentic looking cards. Put 'em in a set like "Unglued...

    CAND!MAN WW question

    I tend to agree with Duel. Serra Angel is great because she's there for you both on attack and defense. She's far and away a better creature than Air Elemental, for example, and they're both 4/4 fliers. I don't think 95% castable is that bad, considering the ways you'll be using the Rebel...

    Best Band Ever?

    I must be getting old. I only recognized 3 of the band names Spiff listed, and I think everyone's heard of U2. What kind of music do the rest of those people play? TomB CPA Member

    Favorite Set

    Favorite set huh? That's tough... Revised and 4th were great, of course. I think I'd give the nod to Revised though, strictly on the basis of the Dual Lands. Expansions though. That's where it gets tougher. Hmmm... As a good set for sealed/draft, I think I'd go with Mirage because of the...
