A little 'historical' *cough, cough* background on one of our all-time favorite authors:

Sun Tzu would write the classic general's manual, "The Art of War". Why was he such a genius in the ways of warfare?

This ancient verse from the 6th Century B.C. Zhou kingdom may shed some light:

"Well, I never blamed him 'cuz he run and hid,
but the meanest thing that he ever did
was before he left he went and named me Tzu."

And later,

"Some gal would giggle and I'd get red,
Some guy'd laugh and I'd bust his head.
I tell ya, life ain't easy for a boy named Tzu!"

Didn't his song stay Number 1 on the Mandarin Top 20 for a number of weeks?
