All The Kids Are Doing It




Since Kate has become my blog mentor, did you know that Kate? You're my blog mentor! (We should plan a reception or something to celebrate.) Since she is my blog mentor, that pretty much means everything she does blog-wise, I am liable to copy. So there's this new thing going around that I discovered in Kate's blog where you're supposed to post the fifth sentence from the 23rd page of the nearest book. Can do. My nearest book at the moment is one I'm using for my research paper on the history of medicine so here goes:

"With almost everybody slain or immune, the pestilences would withdraw, victims of their own success, moving on to storm other virgin populations, like raiders seeking fresh spoils." -- The Greatest Benefit to Mankind

Why thank you medical history for that optimistic tidbit on the human predicament.
