Halloween

Happy Halloween to those who celebrate it.

I really miss Halloween, here in my country some people and bars organize parties, but that's not my style. I miss trick-or-treating... badly...

No more please

I don't mean to sound racist, but if I ever have to hear a Mexican speaker again, I think I'll go postal.

Seriously, as of late they have developed a presentation style of 10-year-old kids who just stand up and read from PowerPoint. Whenever a student of mine does that, it gets proper tongue lashing for it.

Not doing your work

Some people never bother to do their work right...

Q: So, we all know that Yawgmoth is the big bad Thran at the heart of the Weatherlight Saga. We've seen his Will, his Edict, his Bargain, his Agenda and more... but we seem to be pretty short on the big guy himself! So I guess I'm asking... is Yawgmoth actually depicted on any cards?

A: From Monty Ashley, Magic Web Team:

Actually, he is. Wait, is Yawgmoth a "he"? Let's go with "it" is, just in case. I present you with a look at raw, unfiltered Yawgmoth:

Of course, that means that Yawgmoth also appears on the Seventh Edition version:

At first, I wasn't sure whether Yawgmoth Demon was the Yawgmoth, or maybe just "a demon of Yawgmoth". But here's the art description for the Ninth Edition version, which seems to settle the question pretty definitively:

Color: Black
Location: Phyrexia
Action: Show Yawgmoth, who is an enormous flying abomination of Phyrexian origin (a necro-tech setting). It should have two horns and wings, but the rest is up to you. Should be a horrifying flesh/metal hybrid.

So there you go! Note that this doesn't mean that Yawgmoth's full name is "Yawgmoth Demon". He's not related to Maxwell Demon, the on-stage persona of Brian Slade in Todd Haynes's glam rock movie Velvet Goldmine, is what I'm trying to say.

Was it too much to read the damned books and reply that he's on the background of Last stand, or that he's the "Hanna" of Jilt, or all the people in the stands of Phyrexian Arena?

Chondromalacia patellae

Just adding it to the list of diseases and problems I know I have.

Is MacGyver a superhero?

I'll agree with her.

Windows Who cares?

After the Windows Vista fiasco, Microsponge is now pushing Windows 7 asap.

I miss DOS... meanwhile I'll have to keep on using XP (did you know Windows originally wanted people to pay monthly suscription fees for using XP?).

So?

So? What if Obama has socialist or communist ideals? Who ever said there was something wrong with those systems?





If the lowest-class people were smart enough to read (if they did they wouldn't be low class in the first place), they'd see some socialist and communist politics would be good for them.
