@@As with most aphorisms of this kind, the meaning is somewhat fluid.
However, the basic meaning is that you should take advantage of ANY opportunity that arises. Even a minor mistake by an enemy should be noted and used against them. So . . . if the 'enemy' leaves his goats running
around, grab them.  If he leave the keys in his car, steal it. If
he cheats on his income tax, turn him in.

@@I appreciate the detailed C&C. It's going to take some time to go through it all. However a couple of remarks:

1)Yes, VERY clunky sentence structure in some places. ^_*
2)I agree with you on a couple of the POV changes. Too abrupt.
3)The *word word word* are NOT to indicate thought. The (*)used to indicate
itallic or bold or a different font, none of which are availabe in ASCII.:(


Thanks for taking time to write. I appreciate it. I'll use this to try and un-clunk some of the unposted chapters. ^_* (I'm doing a major re-write of chapters 23 & 24 already. Coupled with what i've learned from this post, the next release of "lure the tiger" may be delayed slightly)

Thanks again.
