The Jank Tank

• Ignorance is bliss
• Jumpstart impressions
• Ravnica Beacon - Mediators from the Azorious are working toward a settlement after Izzet Industries was sued over defects in Ral's Spark Goggles when they were falsely advertised as a tool to find romance.  Ral was quoted sayin "When I said spark, that's not what I meant." A goblin in the marketing department was found laughing his ass off when the commercial aired.  Since all other goblins also found the commercial hilarious, the union has decided to go on strike.  Production has come to a halt as nobody in their right mind would dare approach the pickett line.  Numerous explosions have been reported and at least 6 goblins have been killed as conditions continue to escalate.  When we asked the union leader Muxus about the explosions, he said "I'm sure I can find a few more to take their place.". A gruul riot squad had been called in to handle the situation and even now the fighting continues." And now a short word from our sponsors.

Commercial break: PheMO advertisement

Good Luck, I Hope You Lose!
