The Great Bookscape.

I found this on J's blog, and thought it was the best thing I'd heard of all day (it's still early).

From zombiesquirrels.blogspot:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 4 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don't you dare dig for that "cool" or "intellectual" book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.


"The guards," Moiraine muttered as if to herself. "I saw them in the corridor still, and never thought." She smoothed her dress, composing herself with an obvious effort. Elayne did not believe she had ever seen Moiraine so out of herself as tonight.
Great. Now people will think I read cheesy porn.
The first book I found had a graph on page 123. Crap.

    Ok. But I'm doing it on your blog.

    "Je mourrai. Plus de je bientôt. Et quelqu'un peut-être, après ma mort,se demandera aussi pourquoi je suis venu, pourquoi j'ai vécu et si absurdement joui d'écrire et pourquoi je me suis ridiculement tant réjoui de ce qui me paraissait vérité écrite, réussite, trouvaille. Et même d'écrire ce que je viens d'écrire sur ma mort et sur l'inutilité d'écrire me donne une joie de vie et d'utilité."

    Not bad huh? Thank god I was at work and not at home. How do you pick a book among 600?
