Here Comes Everybody

"Howard could imagine someone doing what he did, but better."

Rules:

  • Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
  • Turn to page 56.
  • Find the fifth sentence
  • Post that sentence along with these instructions
  • Don't dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Everyone else is telling you what book it's from, so I guess I gotta too: "A River Runs Through It" by Norman MacLean. (I swear it was the closest! Don't hate me because my wife has good taste in books!)

Oh, and: where do the numbers 56 and 5 come from?
