It's Nice Knowing Someone That Works For A Game Company

Daryl Nichols is probably one of the nicest people I've met up in Seattle.  Even more amazing, he used to live in NW Arkansas.  Now, he works for Wizards of the Coast in Renton.  He had been meaning to bring these to me for a while, the generous man he is.  4 Japanese and 1 Chinese starter deck of Magic: The Gathering.  Pretty awesome!  I traded the Chinese set for some D&D stuff, and I was going to see if my Japanese students would be interested in the others.  They aren't, but I found someone to give them to.  A big thanks to Daryl for giving these to me.  I may not be all that interested in Magic (or collectible card games in general) but it is awesome to see this none-the-less.

UPDATE: I thought I would update and say that my Japanese students ended up taking some of these sets, and some other stuff Daryl had given me to pass on to them.  It's awesome being able to relate to my students through games.  I don't always have a common ground with students, even those from Japan, but this made everything better.
