Ok, I'm sittin' in the library today. It's deathly slow, but you know...I'm surrounded by literature. Go on anyone who wants, I'm going to match you up with a passage of literature that I feel reflects your character on the boards. And if I don't know you well enough, you'll get random incerts from the MLA handbook. But I won't tell which is random and which is a conscious comparison. Whose first? :gun:

Quote: In a state of intellectual excitement, I read with fascination the terrible story of Adso of Melk, and I allowed myself to be so absorbed by it that, almost in a single burst of energy, I completed a translation, using some of those large notebooks from the Papeterie Joseph Gibert in which it is so pleasant to write if you use a felt-tip pen. And as I was writing, we reached the vicinity of Melk, where, perched over a bend in the river, the handsome Stift stands to this day, after several restorations during the course of centuries. As the reader must have guessed, in the manstery library I found no trace of Adso's manuscript.
