-Sceuri ship, Sulcus or Fosse class, one Tactics officer sent.

Iain M. Banks, The Algebraist
(the hardback, I bought it in the January sales and it's now top of the pile of books to read next. Not that it will be, as I'll buy a new and shiny book and have to read that first; or the third Thursday Next book as I'm enjoying the second immensely).

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.

That wasn't the closest book BTW, as the closest was the Stephen Baxter hardback underneath it, but it was top of the pile...

Work stress related update to follow.

Introspection

I'm Mat Bowles, a Devonshire lad displaced to Yorkshire. I'm a part-time analyst, marketer and website manage, although mostly I'm a house-husband.

Wikio - Top BlogsThis is my personal general interest journal where I write about or link to whatever I've fond that amused, intrigued or enraged me at the time. I'm a committed liberal, equalist and atheist, but I really like it when people can demonstrate I'm wrong, and have close friends with whom I completely disagree on some if not all of those points.

Coalition For Choice

There probably ought to be a Creative Commons licence in here somewhere but in the meantime consider this permission to quote me (link) & link to what I write.

If you decide to keep reading, please do say hello, let me know where you found me from, etc. I promise not to bite (well, unless you want me to...)
