James Purser [INSERT WITTY CATCHPHRASE HERE]

Well Joxer has done it and so has cafuego, so here's mine:

First the instructions:

•  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

And now the result:

"He produced a length of shiny black wood from the ragged pocket."

From Terry Pratchett's "Jingo".
