The Perfect Storm

This past weekend I was finally able to play my Pauper Storm deck. Storm is one of my favorite abilities, besides Horsemanship and the ability to shoot mind bullets (That’s TELEKENESIS Kyle!!!). I used to have an Extended Grapeshot Elves deck but I sold the key cards to buy my Cryptic Commands and filter lands for my 5CC deck. I love Storm and decks like Grapeshot Elves because when you finally go off, it’s so much fun to watch all the chaos unfold right in front of you.

Plus it’s got a cool name: "TPS," pronounced “teps,” stands for "The Perfect Storm." I love my Pauper TPS deck because it was dirt cheap to build and consistently wins games on turn 6, if I do lose it’s still fun!

On DailyMTG.com today, Jacob Van Lunen made this awesome new Pauper deck called “Sugar and Splice.”

It uses Psychic Puppetry with a bunch of Arcane spells. He plays with four Fertile Grounds and four Dawn’s Reflection (which kind of do the same thing). Once a land is enchanted with either of those two spells, every time he plays an Arcane spell, he splices Psychic Puppetry, which allows him to untap one of his enchanted lands. With the mana he plays spells that draws him cards, which will probably draw him into another Arcane spell, which will allow him to draw more cards and untap his lands again. Eventually he draws his entire deck and then hits you with Grapeshot. FUN!!!

Totally loving this song! Jesus Saves by Tim Hughes

I know it’s a drum tutorial, but at least you get to hear the song. It’s on his new CD/DVD Happy Day.


I like the inside of Tim Hughes’ & Al Gordon’s church “Holy Trinity, Brompton” because it reminds me of the Aurora Church. Actually, I think it’s a great case study of adapting the interior of a traditional church into something that's more modern but at the same time preserving the past, art, architecture, and feel of the generations that have worship there before.

Here's a shot of their church from the outside. It's even got a small parking lot on the side like the Aurora Church!
