Following John Eddy in The Book Game#
Not really sure what the entire point is but wth, I'll join in just because John asks me to, plus the nearest cliff is a little too far of a walk.

First the instructions for this game:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

I did ask John if I could pick a book from my PocketPC since that's the main way I read, but he said I should stick with paper. So... the next closest book was The Holotropic Mind by Stanislav Grof, M.D., so the quote is...

“During experiential sessions in Holotropic Breathwork™, it is amazing to witness the depth to which people are able to go as they relive the earliest experiences of their lives.”

Gramps asked me to read the book and tell him what I thought, so I am, so far I can say it's interesting but I'm not sure I agree with the entire logic in it, the author seems to speculate a little too much without having real science behind what he's suggesting. But then again it's psychology and deals with the human consciousness so I guess anything goes since we really don't have a clue.

Cool GirlsGoTech.org ads...#
I was just watching Live TV on my MCE for a change when a perfectly innocent ad came on, at first it just seemed like a Mom and daughter reading in bed, but then they started talking about downloading gigabytes, and bits, and all that cool stuff. Needless to say it caught my attention and I wanted to see if there were any more of these ads. Which of course there are. They're done in part by the Ad Council for GirlsGoTech.org, and can be found here. It's a shame that they're only encoded in low res Real format. I'll see about getting a WMV made from my DVR-MS when I have some time.
