Thanks to both of you.  I also picked up "Healing Anger: The Power of Patience from a Buddhist Perspective".  It was relatively inexpensive, and learning how to control my anger would be a very very good thing.  I've got what they call "boxer's fractures" (2 of 'em) on my right hand from hitting things that were harder than me.  The knuckles on the pinky and ring finger are basically non-existent :|

  Seconded, it's a really excellent book that can genuinely help when you
  are feeling down, some of the other books by the Dali Lama can be quite
  heavy going if you are not a Buddhist so be a little careful if you
  order any others.

  Try "The Art of Happiness"

  It's not written by the Dali Lama, per se, but is based on conversations

  with him and is, IMHO, absolutely wonderful.
