Stolen from Darcy.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

"It was now almost nine in the morning." ~from Teaching a Stone to Talk by Annie Dillard. Out of all her profundity, I get the most prosaic sentence in the text...

'S okay. I got a boring sentence, too. I don't think I'm even going to bother posting it.

Yay Annie Dillard!

"This information is followed by brief advice on such a character's typical role in a group of adventurers." - from the Dungeons & Dragons Player's Handbook v3.5.

I think I'll try again in my own LJ when I've got something better on my desk ;-)

I think I like his sentence the best, so far. My 5th sentence is so unbearably horrific that I'm gonna post it on mine anyway.
