Susie Blackmon tagged me with an interesting Meme. I traced it back through several Rainers, and found it started outside Active Rain on Tuesday when an author (Karen Zemek) tagged Rainer Danny Thornton. Here are Karen's rules:
Bookworm Meme--I've Been Tagged!
I've been tagged with the Bookworm meme by Page over at The Road I'm Traveling. Here's how this meme works:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 56.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next two to five sentences.
5. Don't dig for your favorite book, the cool book or the intellectual one. Pick the Closest.
6. Tag five people to do the same
My desk has bookshelves for sides, and they're all full. I reached around to the left, and picked up the closest book, Larry McMurtry's Still Wild.

They had had to brace themselves against the weight of the tank, Hus in front pulling the rope over his shoulder and leaning so far forward his knewws almost dug into the ground, and the boy at the back of the tank, pushing.
There you have it!
Now to complete my mission, I'm tagging the following five Rainers, picked at random because they're blogging at 4:30 in the morning along with me!
Kevin Corsa, Akron, OH
Greg Fous, Fort Meyers, FL
James Gordon, Cincinnati, OH
Robert & Jani Bielenberg, Centennial, CO
Mike & Cindy Jones, Jacksonville, FL
