LOL!!! Look at the card in the red deck: "Serendipitous News Crawl".

(PS: Dan, I got a lot of mileage out of that joke today... thanks.)

While we're playing with the... uhhh... lighter side of this disaster...

Q: What's Dubya's position on Roe v. Wade?

A: He really doesn't care how people get out of New Orleans.

Right, the playability of these decks is what makes them more awesome than just "oh that's clever".

It was one of those random links this morning, and I've no idea who I stole it from now. So I've no idea.

I was never a MtG player, but so far as I can tell this isn't just a simple parody, it's completely playable, which really blows me away. That puts it far beyond "slap a few images up" and into "dang, that's got to be several days worth of work".

Brilliant.



The more I look at them, the more impressed I am. I've sent this to every MtG current and former player/junkie I know (I know a lot of 15- to 19-year-old folks, as you know, and many of them played to the extent of almost anything else about 5 years ago) and so far the response has been universal awe. How did you find this? And thanks!
