    Figured this would be as good a time as any to list the books I got for Christmas.

    The Karate Way (Discovering the spirt of practice) by Dave Lowry has a lot of good insights and gives new ways to look at the study of Martial arts. This book will benefit anyone who trains in martial arts, not just Karate.

    Default Ghost Soldiers

    I'm reading Ghost Soldiers The forgotten epic story of World War II's most dramatic mission by Hampton Sides. I feel that it seems to be effecting my opinions about martial arts which were already getting weird as it is.
