@ Tenchu:

As always, I find your views on Man's Heart a little extreme....

Personally, I would admire a man who was willing to wait in three feet of shit for hours on end to achieve his goal. Someone who was that determined to accomplish their goal deserves respect. I mean, seriously... how many would be willing to stand in shite all day to commit an act that would take but a few seconds?

Now, I DO understand what you're saying (we've been around about it before). What I'm disagreeing with this time is the assumption that because an assassin had to resort to such measures he is somehow less of a man than another.

To me, it's sort of like... say it's a battle. You have the chance to flank the enemy and attack from behind and end the battle quickly with fewer casualties, but because of an extension of the idea that stabbing a man in the back is dishonourable, you refuse to take the opportunity and lose the battle.

Not how I said "extension of the idea". The idea itself is a great one--I don't like cheapshots at the onset any more'n the next guy, but if shit has already hit the fan and the other guy does something stupid, that's your opening ^_^ .

So, that ninja that waited in filth deserves a little respect. He might not have had what you define as a heart of stone, but he did have iron determination. Also, I'd like to know what the ninja himself thought...

Oh, I know! "It sure stinks in here!" Oh, but I meant besides that ^_^;;; .
