Usually this meme operates on page 56, I believe. That's changed.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth full sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don't search around for the coolest book you can find. Use what's actually nearest to you.

That sentence is your spiritual guide for tomorrow.

Note: In addition to detailing by means of elementary specifications, you can continue decomposing scalar specifications by using sets of [qualifiers].

Oh, well, my spiritual guide for tomorrow isn't very spiritual I need to keep something other than books about software engineering by my desk. Thanks to [livejournal.com profile] tim1965 for keeping me spiritually clued in.

No! That's exceptionally spiritual! You know the elementary specifications about things. You can get to the heart of (decompose) the specifications of others, and you bracket ideas correctly.

I think that rather than keeping Tom Gilb's book "Competitive Engineering" on my desk, I should keep something more uplifting.

The other book on my desk is my ritual, and the 5th sentence on page 123 is "S.W.: What does this grip demand?"
