Book Meme, revisited...
Back in June, I posted about something called a Book Meme. It got a few responses, but soon-after, I changed Weblog tools and I don’t know how many people actually got to read it. Inspired by my last entry, I decided to try it again…
1. Grab the closest book. 2. Turn to page 64. 3. Find third complete sentence. 4. Print sentence in comments here or on your own site (a trackback would be nice).And here’s mine, from Kalle Lasn’s Culture Jam: The Uncooling of America™ (which has a picture on page 64, so I’ll use page 65): “A story of early settlers, hungry and cold, carving a home out of the wilderness.”
(This meme was created by The Thinkling. I got the idea from John Adams.)
