  1. Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
  2. Turn to page 56.
  3. Find the fifth sentence.
  4. Post that sentence AS YOUR STATUS. AND POST these instructions in a comment to this status.
  5. Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST book.

I’m going to close the comments here and move the discussion to Tumblr instead, as I think it’s easier to spread this along that way. Please post your responses here.
