Do This!
Shamelessly 'borrowed' from a friend's blog without proper credit. Do this:
Mine turned out thusly. 1. Nearest book = a signed copy of "The XML Handbook" (Second Edition) by Charles Goldfarb, ex-IBMer who I saw stone drunk at a conference some years ago. O.K. just to cover my butt, he may not have been stone drunk, but it helps to think that he isn't always like that. I put him in the pigeon-hole of "Interesting".
Kept mummbling something about a man, a plan and a canal. Then, signed, "Good luck withNoriega Panama? - Charles Goldfarb".
5th sentence: "Later chapters will provide that opportunity."
Not sure what this means to me in the larger scheme of things, but try the experiment for yourself. Perhaps in the aggregate, a pattern will emerge.
- Grab the nearest book.
- Open the book to page 23.
- Find the fifth sentence.
- Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
