It’s funny how fast/slow something spreads itself on the net. If you don’t know yet what I’m talking about, it’s this bit of text:

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

I don’t know who really started it, most of the people who posted it provided a link to the ones they got it from, so I tracked it “all the way” back to Notes from the tundra, on April 8th 2004. Before that it looks like it was an extensive Q&A list. So maybe the honors go to Notes from the tundra

I refused to do it before, so why should I do it now? No I won’t grab a book. :)
