"Find the nearest book to you, turn to page 45, and read the first sentence: this describes your sex life in 2012."

The lady in black and her friend had always been very fond of the Città Vecchia. -- Which is eh enough, except that the book was published in 1897. Giovanni and the Other, Frances Hodgson Burnett

Anne's stunning announcement put my brain on HOLD.  --  *snerk*  Who's Anne?  Magnificat, Julian May (the UK paperback)  

Who was that man?  --  *howls with laughter*  Tales of the Restoration, David & Karen Mains, Ill. Diana Magnuson  

New species these days tend to be invertebrates.  --  Now that's just disturbing.  Swimming with Piranhas at Feeding Time, Richard Conniff

"You'll never make a jeweller," he whispered to her.  --  Well, no, probably I won't!  The Door into Sunset, Diane Duane 

And that's enough of that.
