Yes, it’s true, I’ve been tagged.
I’m not much into the tagging scene (and can’t exactly figure out why) but will comply with the first part of the exercise in support of meowmix.
The parameters of the tag are as follows:
Pick up the nearest book of 123 pages or more. (No cheating!)
Find Page 123.
Find the first 5 sentences.
Post the next 3 sentences.
Tag 5 people.
With that in mind, from R.R. Reno, In The Ruins of The Church:
But beware of assuming that loyalty to inherited forms impairs rather than empowers.
If anything defines Anglicanism, it is the rejection of this assumption and the affirmation of its opposite.
The more I have studied Anglican divines, the more I have become aware that Anglicanism advances no recognizable "idea of Christianity."
I know you’re rushing right over to Amazon to order this book!
I won’t be tagging anyone else so it’s self-tag if you’d like to carry on the exercise.

I rarely pass on tags and such. I just liked this one.

Here’s all the proof you need that being a lawyer is every bit as glamorous as it is portrayed on shows like LA Law, JAG, Ally McBeal, The Practice, etc.
“Scope: Construction: Application: Rule: Citation Rule 1″
“These rules govern procedure and practice in all circuit courts of this state, except in the small claims department of the circuit courts, for all civil actions and special proceedings whether cognizable as cases at law, in equity, or of statutory origin except where a different procedure is specified by statute or rule.”
“These rules shall also govern practice and procedure in all civil actions and special proceedings, whether cognizable as cases at law, in equity, or of statutory origin, for the small claims department of the circuit courts and for all other courts of this state to the extent they are made applicable to such courts by rule or statute.”
Aren’t you glad you asked?

I think the aversion to tags is related to the aversion to email forwards. At any rate, I’ll play.

I’m happy not tag others nor to be tagged.

How do you type the first three lines in a phone book? Oh well. God bless your tool belt efforts.
