Something Interesting ...

I am reading a book called The Prince, by Niccolo Machiavelli, and in just the first paragraph they mention that Machiavelli was considered Old Nick (even though the name "Old Nick" had existed for Satan long before!!) couple that with the age old Santa = Satan and you are on to something!

Through advertising (Marketing) it seems that people are selling their souls every year when they ask "Santa" or "Satan" for that cool item, or whatever!

DAMN!

Now you are probably asking why are you reading The Prince?

Well, apparently this is one of the play books that GHWB was forced to read by Roger Ailes!

He also worked on the Nixon Campaign, and other interesting things that brough nothing good to the US!

So why not know what the enemy is going to do next!!

If you want a little insight into Bush and Co.'s plans you might want to pick up a copy on http://www.amazon.com/ check the used area for some great prices!!

Another book I am reading that was recommended by a friend is Strategy by B. H. Lindell Hart

This book is pretty good, just dry!! The interesting thing is I just read the first section and then thismorning I was up early and watching the history channell and they have a show that uses Video Game technology ( I used to have the actual game! ) to recreate battles for us to see what it might have looked like, and the battles they talked about are the battles of Marathon and Athens!!

It did help to actually see what is being described. Good Stuff!

The lesson of those battles was indirect approach, for more check out the book Strategy I think I saw a used one up on Amazon.com for around $1.98!!!

More lata...
