Page 23 meme

Having been tagged by kerravonsen:

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog, along with these instructions.
5.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.

Okay, look. There are four books almost equidistant from me, and I'm not going to get a ruler and do all sorts of complicated math to figure out which one is really closest. One of them has no sentences on page 23. One of them is Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, which you can read for yourself. One of them has no page numbers. One of them is discussing reserved words in C++, which I could use, but it's probably the furthest away. So I'm going to give you poem 23 from The Space Child's Mother Goose, though it isn't even three sentences long:

Hey Diddle Diddle
Distribute the Middle
The Premise controls the Conclusion
The Disjunctive affirms
That the Diet of Worms
Is a Borbetomagic confusion.

Make of that what you can. And I shall tag, oh, anyone reading this who's between the ages of 35 and 40. :)
