Re: Some of my Favourite Books
Higgie. I usually associate Chomsky with cardigan wearing academics replete with pipes or coffee shop liberals or wooly haired socialists and other conspiracy theorists. Hence my surprise. Again difficult for me to picture you sitting in the corner of a gunshop reading that. Selous Hemingway or similiar but not that!
I am studying an awesome brand of leg fighting which was inspired by dung beetles and I think my brand of Kraft Manure is superior to all other styles ever invented. Furthermore I challenge all other manurists to a rolling contest where we shall establish whose manure ball is the biggest! I shall call it Honest Kraft Manure and declare it superior to all other brands of manure and will tell you that I have claimed the lineage directly to Imshi the great Dragon Kru Master Beetler who invented manuring, by gathering all manure from different animals together and making it work as the worlds most effective fertilizer. I proved myself by being members of not one but three super elite special gardening departments who were responsible for spreading manure to combat weed infestations!

Re: Some of my Favourite Books
I recently finally started reading On Combat by Lt Col Dave Grossman. It has come highly recommended from several sources and so far I can defiantly see why.

Re: Some of my Favourite Books
Some awesome books that come to mind:
- It's Not About the Bike, My Journey Back to Life (by Lance Armstrong) - VERY INSPIRING!!
- The Gift of Fear (Gavin de Becker)
- Reality Based Personal Protection (Jim Wagner)
... although controversial to many on the forum cfd89 I really enjoy Gabe Suarez's material and the combative/Warrior mindset that his work instills - Hope to get to train with him one day!!
So much great work out there ...
Stay Safe!“Practice Peace, Train Chaos!”

When life really spills salt in your tea:
Mort - Terry Pratchett
Reaper Man - Terry Pratchett
Wyrd Sisters - Terry PratchettProne to random kindness, lecherous behaviour, imitating D-cups at speed and an outstanding sense of humour. If you don't agree, well fuck you.
