I got it right, but then I've been staring at "in principio" pages for months now...but if you're both lacking in motivation having recently hosted I will happily blitzkrieg people...

I read this last night and thought, ooh, dammit, what is the first line of the Bible? I only know "In the beginning..." and then I get distracted by John!

Curse those apostles.

I never can remember which is the Gospel of John and which is Genesis. I think it's hilarious that lanyer apparently has the same problem.

Anyway, I ran Game 34, so unless lanyer has any objections, I reckon it's her turn now.

I predict 50% will get it wrong in most company, so assuming that the Anglican clergy skew the average...

I may ask around at work.

Oops I was going to suggest that you take this one (I have a slightly poorly inant to tend to so I don't know ho regular my updates would be for the next week) maybe we should take Jen up on her offer of doodlebugs?

I was kind of thinking it was more your turn than mine, but if you don't want to do it, I have an idea for a theme.

So: how would you like the author credited in the book index? :)

Anon. The Bible is divinely inspired rather than divinely authored, after all.
