Yet another Kipling quote to replace the last one for my sig line...My leisure time reading is mostly Texas history and Military history in general (Dead Carl Philipp Gottfried (or Gottlieb) von Clausewitz and long dead Sun Tzu were beaten into my head at BNCOC, the army's basic NCO course, so I don't keep them in the house, much less touch them in passing), and I don't limit it to just historical tomes and research, but enjoy a lot of historical fiction in those areas as well - But a small stack of Kipling's works are permanent fixtures on my nightstand, his prose, while often based on military subjects (I will no doubt read "The Charge of the Light Brigade" thousands more times before I turn my toes up to the daisies), flows so naturally and is punctuated with such wisdom that I can't think of anything better to read in the 30 minutes or so I'm waiting to get to sleep.
My sig line will probably change often, but it will always be something from Kipling - And please, don't anyone infer that a particular sig line is directed at them, they are just artifacts of what I read the night before that stuck with me until morning.
