Lived through the 90s. Music hasn't been much good since the Beatles met that Indian guru and put on Nehru jackets. Try Realdownloader.

Try Doo Wop, EARLY Beatles, and "modern" Doo Wop. Modern example is Crystalairs, a German group from 90s. There is a rich history of pop music earlier than the 90s. Even the best disco is updated swing (big band). And I like stuff that goes back much farther. It takes some practice to get used to it if you think of it as just elevator music. Explore a little. You may find that great 90s tune has an earlier version in the 60s. I particularly enjoy the harmonies and that bass man featured in the Coasters' version of Zing! Went the Strings. Folk mysic of the early 60s, protest songs, etc. Bill Haley and the Comets. The earluer music isn't as angry as it seems nowadays. Perhaps it will soothe your fired up soul. The words can be a little immature and simple. Concentrate on the interaction of the harmony and the melidy rather than the teenie-issue words.

Oh my. Now we are discussing music.
Next I nominate favorite cooking shows or perhaps quilting.

To bring this back to wargaming, but including quilting, the is the coat of arms for HMS Tactician, a WWI RN Submarine. I think this would make a nifty small quilt that could be awarded, slightly modified, as a prize to the winner of a wargame tournament.
It could also be a gift to someone who is a wargamer.
One could keep it in the chess diagram shown or uses a group of hexes, perhaps showing a double envelopment, with some other wargaming symbols included elsewhere such as dice, unit counters, or an AFV.
