John’s Jottings

Killing time before having dinner at “Hard Rock Copenhagen”:http://www.hardrock.com/locations/cafes/cafes.asp?lc=COPE so I’ll play the Fifth Sentence game like Shelley:

# Grab the nearest book
# Open the book to page 23
# Find the fifth sentence
# Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions

(Like “Doug”:http://www.thealders.net/blogs/archive/001887.html I would assume you pick the fifth complete sentence, ignoring the sentence fragment that may start the page - although in my case it was easy because page 23 was a new chapter.)

Funny thing is I’m still reading 0060548258 but Book Two was closer.

Was hoping to post pictures of Denmark during my week here but I forgot to bring my card reader so I’ll have to batch post them later.
