*looking down at the mess of papers* "Well, at least they're organized..."

Welcome.

I think the reasoning behind Trinisphere's restriction was just weird. So far though, it seems to have pushed Mana Drain back into the forefront, which seems like it might have helped slow the format down some more again (it had gotten fast--even for Vintage). But I haven't been following Magic...

Okay, I thought you said it was NOT that bad earlier. How bad is "that" bad anyway? I mean, the rest of your post seems fine to me. But with this first line, you seem to be sending mixed messages...

You've seen Hymn used in decks in which black was secondary to another color (or there was an even mix)? I guess someone might try it, but such a deck doesn't sound like it would be much good. I'm not veering at all. My original contention was that Fork has been limited by its double-red mana...

False if by "the church" you mean a Christian church (and since when has there only been one of those?). Marriage existed thousands of years before Chrisianity.

Cool, but, if they don't put a "no lawnmowing" clause in there, you can sue them when you chop your toes off?

No, I don't think I have... Was I about to make a "your mother" joke there?

Your turn.

All of those look like nicknames to me. Phil is usually short for Phillip. Mike is short for Michael. Dick is a shortening of Richard (somehow). I think Clay is often short for Clayton. So it seems quite likely that the parents didn't give them those names exactly... My friend's ex-boyfriend's...

That depends. What's a sadle?

And then you drive into a tree and get your teeth knocked out.

*Picks up some of the papers (not the same ones Si'Nat is reading--that would be silly) in order to attempt reading them*

I think I know who drove them off... :p

No, and it isn't that bad now either. But I can picture something like Chaos Orb or Falling Star seeing a lot of use nowadays, even if its effect wasn't all that great (just on the off-chance that a lucky throw could be made). Still, I have heard a lot of "Chaos Orb" stories from days gone by...

Any "discard deck" I've seen has had black as the more common color. This is simply because Hymn, Duress, Mind Twist, Hypnotic Specter, and almost all the other decent discard spells are black. Control decks that are not entirely discard-based and use Hymn tend to be monoblack (like Necro and...

Yes, I would say so.
