Contest Wrap-Up (06/19/08 - 7 Comments)
Two days, two contests. Both were a lot of fun, I think, and I hope to do a few more in the same vein.

It turns out that a whole lot of people sent in their answers and fully 34 of them got all of the answers correct. Most of these confessed to having harnessed the power of Google to do so. I knew that Google would come into play but hadn’t thought that all fifteen quotes were available out...
The First Three Lines: A Contest (06/17/08 - 24 Comments)
Yesterday, rather on a whim, I went through a few of the books on my shelves and jotted down the first three lines from each of them.

Most of these books are either classics or bestsellers. Most are the kind...
