Mordecai's Journal

It was a dark and stormy night.  I was sitting in one of the back booths at my favorite restaurant enjoying the room’s warmth despite the fierceness outside.  Suddenly, the main door opened and a figure dressed all in black entered.  The door closed behind him but the chill surrounding his entrance did not leave.  It was Death.  He glided across the floor to my table and sat opposite me.  With pale bony fingers, he reached across the table and intoned, “Pick a card—any card.”  The horror...the horror... .
Surely you can come up with something better than that!  Bring your strange-and-unusual magic to our next meeting on February 12 at 7:30PM.  And join us for dinner, if you can, at 6:00PM.
