I saw this in another group and it was a lot of fun =)

Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 59
* Find the sixth complete sentence.
* Post that sentence here, along with the book.
* Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST book.

I'll use mine as an example.
Okay, well this was a fail, as in the nearest book to me page 59 was a picture. But you get the idea. I hope.
