Book Meme, Part Deux
I posted this last year and had thought it was interesting, so let’s have it again!
- Grab the nearest book.
- Open the book to page 123.
- Find the fifth sentence.
- Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
- Don’t you dare dig for that “cool†or “intellectual†book in your closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is closest.
My Bible is the closest book this time around:
The person to be cleansed must wash his clothes, shave off all his hair and bathe with water; then he will be ceremonially clean. After this he may come into the camp, but he must stay outside his tent for seven days. On the seventh day he must shave off all his hair; he must shave his head, his beard, his eyebrows and the rest of his hair. He must wash his clothes and bathe himself with water, and he will be clean. On the eighth day he must bring two male lambs and one ewe lamb a year old, each without defect, along with three-tenths of an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil for a grain offering, and one log of oil.
That’s Leviticus 14:8-10 of the New International Version for those who are curious.
Post your’s in the comments or on your blog with trackback.

At home: “Composed of several layers, it is thick and well suited for its protective role in the body. Its free surface cells are squamous; cells of the deeper layers are cuboidal or columnar. This epithelium is found in areas subjected to wear and tear, and its surface cells are constantly being rubbed away and replaced by division of its basal cells.” From Marieb’s _Human Anatomy & Physiology 6th ed._
At work: “In this article: “Family,” “family violence,” and “household” have the meanings assigned by Chapter 71, Family Code. “Firearm” has the meaning assigned by Chapter 46, Penal code.” Blah, blah, blah. –O’Connor’s Criminal Codes plus annotated
