Here's what I get, using the five books in my reach:

Ellen had just fallen asleep when she heard a strange voice.

So either I start hearing strange voices in bed or I become a stalker.

I'm actually not sure which option disturbs me more.

But they were losing steam.

Apparently I'm not very good in bed.

...the wretched Man-less woman.

Apparently one-night stands are in my future.

A young child is stolen by wild animals.

So I'm a furry pedophile gang rapist, or raped by a pack of wild animals. Great.

A young woman in town married a man from another part of the country.

I get married. Boring, but at least it's happy.

The nearest book to me is Artesia Afire, but it could be worse because it's sitting on top of the Monster Manual.

The relevant sentence is: 'Dread Queen!'

Yeah, that's about right.

"That doesn't alter the fact that we've been here for months without finding a trace of any group organized or powerful enough to mount an operation like that."

Disconcerting.

MM wouldn't be all that bad, it'd be the first half of the description of a marilith.

Bolding in original source. I'm pretty ok with the euphemisms here.

"Even Islam, which some students of Arab affairs cite as the most formidable single barrier to the westernization of Arab existence, is basically but an affirmation of Christianity and Judaism-- or, at least, of such versions thereof as Muhammed knew."

I'm not sure I want any part of this.

Romans. It had to be Romans.

Mine was from the Amulet Graphic novel and it is either "Bzak - zppt -zzzz" or "Look you're going to need my help, whether you ask for it or not."

I don't know which one is superior/horrifying.

That's awesome.

This thread taught me that I should probably read educational things like the grown-ups here.

Relevant to recent news:

Blicero · Post by **Blicero** » Thu Jun 28, 2012 11:56 pm

The nearest thing by me is a paper that is only 43 pages long, so let's look at page 25.

Robert Brandenberger wrote: Recently it has been argued that parametric resonance may lead to resonant amplification of super-Hubble-scale cosmological perturbations and might even modify some of the first predictions of inflation mentioned in Section 3.4.

This chapter provides general strategies for all three species.

I can't even remember why I had my Brood War strategy guide out, but I'm glad I did.

I'm not sure how to interpret that...

Technically there is no sentence... so I go with the first non-header line.

Starting Skills: Common Lore (War), Dodge, Intimidate, Scholastic Lore (Tactica Imperialis), Secret Tongue (Military), Speak Language (Low Gothic)

Well the intimidating and secret tongue bit sound intriguing at least.

(the book is mine now because my 1 year old tore it and I bought a replacement for my friend who is running the campaign. don't judge meeeeeeee!)

By that, mine would be "Telepathy:." I don't count titles and such.
