Book Game. Questionable Entertainment Value.

From Sam Vega’s Vox Blog:

  1. Grab the nearest book.
  2. Open the book to page 23.
  3. Find the fifth sentence.
  4. Post the text of the next three sentences in your journal along with these instructions.
  5. Don’t dig for your favourite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

“Just stop,” I said politely, feeling this was a bad dream.

–Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.

….and now I have read three entire sentences from that book :)
