Blog Schedule

I post on Monday with an occasional random blog thrown in for good measure. I do my best to answer all comments via email and visit around on the days I post.

Tagged!

I have been tagged! I've heard about being tagged, but this is my first try at this game. I hope I can follow the rules, which are:

1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people and post a comment to
Vijaya's blog once you've posted your three sentences.

The nearest book happens to be Oscar Wild: Complete Short Fiction. On page 123 we have the story "The Devoted Friend." (Hmmm...coincidence or cosmic forces at work?)

Here are the three sentences:
It was a very wild night, and the wind was blowing and roaring round the house so terribly that at first he thought it was merely the storm. But a second rap came, and then a third, louder than either of the others.
"It is some poor traveller," said little Hans to himself, and he ran to the door.

I hope these next five people will forgive my impertinence for passing the tag on to them.

And, I have learned something: how to post a link to other blogs!

  2. I posted my page 123 thingy on http://kathleenduey.blogspot.com/

    It was an interesting little execise.

    The page 69 project is in the same conceptual zip code and was interesting to do, too:

  3. Can we play TV tag next? Do you know that one?

    "Green Acres!"
    "Um... Brady Bunch!"
    "I got you. You're frozen."
    "Uh uh! I said Brady Bunch!"
    "You said it after I tagged you."
    "No I didn't!"

    Ah... good times.
