Book Meme

From [livejournal.com profile] bunyip, who got it elswhere.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal...along with these instructions.
5. Don't search around and look for the "coolest" book you can find. Do what's actually next to you


Well, if you take out the word "not," you get a pretty good description of the plan: "a richly detailed manual on how to combat terrorism."

Lies, And the Lying Liars Who Tell Them - A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right, Al Franken, Plume 2004

I've got two books at hand:

"Medical treatment has its peculiar difficulties in space."

Pioneering Space, James and Alcestis Oberg, McGraw-Hill, 1987.

"When I open my apartment door, I hear the scuttling of a hundred sticky toes."

Secret Life, Jeff VanderMeer, Golden Gryphon Press, 2004.

I don't want to do the meme, I just wanna poke the penguin. And I like your music choice.
