1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people and post a comment to
dame_grise's blog (your tagees will post to mine, etc.) once you've posted your three sentences.
(The last step is the twist, because you don't post to my journal).

Well, the closest book is my digital camera manual. Page 123 has some instructions in French.
Next closest "book" is a thick Computer Shopper magazine. Page 123 is an ad for a computer.
Next closest book is "Engineer-In-Training Reference Manual", but its pages are numbered chapter-dash-page, so there isn't a page 123.
This kind of meme never works well for me, because the interesting books are never close by. Oh well.
I had a book of poetry closer by last week, but then I moved it. It's got a poem on page 123, but the poem isn't punctuated. I was considering posting part of it, but now I feel uncomfortable with that idea because the person who wrote it is someone on my LJ friends-list, and it's their copyrighted material. So, umm, well. Like I said, this kind of meme never works well for me.
