Phrase, nearest book, meme.

2008-11-12

Via Agile Testing:

  • Grab the nearest book.
  • Open it to page 56.
  • Find the fifth sentence.
  • Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
  • Don’t dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

Here’s mine, from Edible and Medicinal Plants of the West, discussing the Evening Primrose:

Fruits are presented as four-celled capsules.

Sentence four had a lot more to say, oh well.

    page 56 of Testimony by Anite Shreve (book at my feet)–I could have done more for him, I thought.

  2. @Mom: It’s true. It would much easier on everyone if I was independently wealthy :) You did alright though, thanks!

  3. @Mom: Now that I think of it, were you referring to my brother?

  4. We do have a daughter also, so I only copied the line from the book.
