Well it was bound to happen eventually. I’ve been tagged with a MeMe- the Blogosphere’s version of passing notes in high school.

This one comes to us from Trauma Junkie over at Surviving Respiratory Therapy School: Tales of a Trauma Junkie.

So here are the rules:

Pass it on to five other Bloggers, and tell them to open the nearest book to page 56. Write out the fifth sentence on that page, and also the next two to five sentences. The CLOSEST BOOK, NOT YOUR FAVORITE, OR MOST INTELLECTUAL!

They ended up getting 42.6 percent of the Trivial Pursuit questions right. The "professor" group didn’t know more than the "soccer hooligan" group. They weren’t smarter or more focused or more serious. They were simply in a "smart" frame of mind, and, clearly, associating themselves with the idea of something smart, like a professor, made it a lot easier – in that stressful instant after a trivia questioned was asked – to blurt out the right answer. – Malcolm Gladwell, Blink .

This book is sitting on my right hand book shelf of my computer desk.

I read it once already, and I enjoyed his novels so much I’m reading this one again. (I highly recommend it!) Ironically I believe Matt (CanuckNurse) tweeted about this book a lil’ while back.

So don’t kill the messenger, but I have to pass this on to FIVE other Bloggers:

1. Matt of Canuck Nurse (yep, had to)

2. KatieBee of Young and Restless Nurse

3. Running Wildly of Running Wildly

4. Caroline of Brain Scramble

5. May of About A Nurse

Once again.. Please don’t kill the messenger. I thought this would be something different.

Carpe Diem
