Stupid Meme Tricks

 From an entry entitled " We are all lemmings, we bloggers" on Pharyngula to which I'd been directed by Paul of Aurora Walking Vacation fame:
  1. Grab the nearest book.
  2. Open the book to page 123.
  3. Find the fifth sentence.
  4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
  5. Don’t search around and look for the “coolest” book you can find. Do what’s actually next to you.

As you command.

"7. Little Hope Island

Barely a rock above high tide, it lies about 4 km (2 mi.) offshore." 

-- From Sea Kayaking In Nova Scotia, 2nd. edition by Scott Cunningham, Nimbus Publishing, Ltd., Halifax, N.S., Canada, 2000.

Not exciting in the least, was it?
