Book Game
Via Mr. Hassel's Long Underpants via Emergency Doc. This game is apparently attributed to a person who calls themselves Texas Biscuit.
Here are the rules:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 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.
Here is mine:
Mulch forced himself to stay calm. This was his big chance. Maybe he could find a nice hell hole and settle down for a while.

Go on, you know you want to do it! You can post your particular excerpt in the comments here if you like, but at least have a go and post them on your own blog.

Sorry. The nearest book was the dictionary.

Meg, that's weird...do you mean the book is actually missing a page 123 or it simply is not that big a book? Thanks for checking anyhow!
Kat, I rekon a dictionary is great to keep nearby. We often simply brwse through a dictionary simply to see if we can find new and interesting words. That is how i discovered one of my favourite words, Transmogrify when I was younger.
