i love this shit


chapter one bits

All warfare is based on deception. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable;
when using our' forces, we must seem inactive;
when we are near, we must make the enemy helieve we are far away;
when far away, we must make him believe we are near.
Hold out baits to entice the enemy.
Feign disorder, and crush him.
If he is secure at all points, be prepared for him.
If he is in superior strength, evade him.
If your opponent is of quick to anger, seek to irritate him.
Pretend to be weak. that he may grow arrogant.
lf he is taking his ease, give him no rest.
If his forces are united, separate them.
Attack him where he is unprepared, appear where you are not expected.



chapter 3 bits

In the practical art of war, the best thing of all is to take the enemy's country whole and intact;
to shatter and destroy it is not so good.
So, too, it is better to recapture an army entire than to destroy it,
it is better to capture a whole regiment, a entire detachment or a full company than to destroy them.

Hence to fight and conquer in all your battles is not supreme excellence;
supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting.

Thus the highest form of leadership is to thwart the enemy's plans;
the next best is to prevent the junction of the enemy's forces;
the next in order is to attack the enemy's army in the field;
and the worst policy of all is to besiege walled cities.

---

Thus we may know that there are five essentials for victory:
(1) He will win who knows when to fight and when not to fight.
(2) He will win who knows how to handle both superior and inferior forces.
(3) He will win whose army is animated by the same spirit throughout all its ranks.
(4) He will win who, prepared himself, waits to take the enemy unprepared.
(5) He will win who has military capacity and is not interfered with by the sovereign.

Hence the saying:
If you know the enemy and know yourself,
you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
If you know yourself but not the enemy,
for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.
If you know neither the enemy nor yourself,
you will succumb in every battle.

Idiosyncrasy:
A structural or behavioral characteristic peculiar to an individual or group


List 5 idiosyncrasies of yours:

1. In order to sleep well, I have to wear a beanie cap with it covering my eyes and keeping my head warm at the same time. (it also keeps hair stubble from being pulled in the thread weave).

2. I don't like to hold onto a single drink of alcohol over a period of time. I prefer to do all in a shot rather than hold on to it and take sips even if i'm sitting at a bar.

3. I like listening to The Art of War. Especially when I'm feeling particularily venomous - or when I just feel like it. It cheers me up and makes me happy.

4. I don't wear diamonds or such gems. I don't believe they're worth what it takes to get them.

5. I put my shoes or stockings on starting with the left or else i sometimes feel unbalanced.

hmm
ok
enough work
local bar time!
tomorrow i drive north to shoot in bolinas with [livejournal.com profile] annadevia, stay the nite,
then another drive up to sebastopol on sunday for a shoot.

oh
and cruising thru my friends list i stumbled across an image of me that [livejournal.com profile] stevedietgoedde took from our golden gate park shoot in san francisco in '97 or '98.
it's in the [livejournal.com profile] fetishart

i know a lot of models hate people who take their images and make them icons
i never really care and it doesn't bother me as far as icons n such go.

but i do know that taking someone's work and turning it into your own happens often and people react in different ways.
sometimes it's just a fan's rendition, sometimes it's for commercial reasons, sometimes a variety of the two.
who knows?
but i do know it happens all the time, yet can be a bit bothersome and tiresome as well.
especially when it is done without permission.

the post is here
