 Genesis 47:

Joseph is able to acquire all the wealth in Egypt and Canaan by listening to God, and saving food during the 7 strong years that God told him about.

Psalms 47:

Sing Praises to God.  For God is King of all the Earth.

Proverbs 16:

Kind words are like honey - sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.


Wow, the scriptures on wording just keep hitting me this year.  I have read Proverbs probably like 50+ times.  I haven't really stopped to take count.  I read Proverbs 12 times a year, and I have been reading pretty faithfully for the last 4 plus years.  I don't say this to brag, but only to put in context.  I don't think I have ever noticed this verse before.  

And I love how God ties it all together with Psalms 47, Kind words, like Praising God, are like honey.  Sweet for the soul, and healthy for the body.  I often laugh at sitcoms when the people sing out loud, and break into sing-song,  I'm like nobody does that in real life.  Except that we do around my house.  We often sing silly little songs and laugh.  Imagine how much better we would be if we just broke out in praises to our Savior randomly throughout the day, while at work, in the grocery store, around the dinner table.  

Sing Praises to God.  Thank Him for all He has done for us.  That is my thought of the day.

Oh yeah, and be nice to people.  Compliment them, say sweet things to them.  It's good for them, and good for you.

When Nightmares Come (Osprey Bluebook series)

Last week I picked up a copy of When Nightmares Come by Patrick Todoroff.  It is a game of modern supernatural investigation.   Think Ghostbusters, Stranger Things, Scooby Doo.  The concept seems fun, and the rules seem pretty simple.    There are three character types, a warrior, a wizard, and a tinker/mechanic.  It uses a dice pool mechanic consisting on d6, d8 and d10.  Everything works off a success of 4+, and you can use the dice as you see fit to make sure your actions succeed.  There were a few errors here and there,  my favorite being 288mm scale.  I am of course now tempted to print a figure at that scale.  Maybe I can use some busts.  Anyways, this is a common complaint about the Blue Book series, the minor typos here and there.  They don't bother me too much.   I think the rules look fun, I think the game will play well.  I am excited to print and paint some new models as always.  I am a...

Mythic Earth (formerly Mythic Americas)

Crossposted on Splendor of Fire  I was watching the Joy of Wargaming YouTube channel as I am wont to do. It is a great channel, and Mr. Wargaming is a really swell guy. For some reason he was in New Jersey, and found Mythicos Studios. Which is a wargaming store and studio. They produce the game Mythic Earth (formerly known as Mythic Americas, based on the Warlords of Erewhon ruleset from Warlord Games). I just realized how crazy this whole thing sounds. There were/are a lot of moving parts going on here. I saw the game probably during the pandemic, and wanted to get into it, but life got in the way. I am coming to the realization that I need to actually start playing games with my toys, and stop printing and painting so much. Anyways, as always I digress from the point of this article. The rules for Mythic Earth are on the always free model, which I like. You can find various resources for the game here . I spent the weekend reading through the ruleset. I think I really...
