A Book Of Five Rings

[Formerly D@vid Leeder]

Ah, the Go Rin No Sho (A Book of Five Rings), the story of Miyamoto Musashi. One of my favorites from it was the Fire and Stones cut that he used to defeat the monk who utilized a spear. Then he stayed with the monks and trained with them for a time.

This and the Art Of War are religion to me
Its depressing<im a relatively peaceful dude,and one of the things Im most adept at,is creating havoc on the form of my fellow man

I don't see why it would be depressing: you don't have to actually DO it, but knowing how is a good tool to have in your skillset. The objective is usually peace, but the means are often not thusly based.
