“phrase from nearest book” meme

Via

  • Grab the nearest book.
  • Open it to page 56.
  • Find the fifth sentence.
  • Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
  • Don’t dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

Here’s mine, from Pragmatic Version Control Using Subversion 2nd Edition by Mike Mason:

“After creating our sandbox repository, we used a repository URL to tell Subversion  what we wanted to check out.”

Cool meme. Mine’s a little boring. Great book, though.
