30 Days of Photographs IV: China

Welcome to the halfway point of 30 Days of Photographs IV. Only 15 more days to go. Sigh.

You know what to do.


Day 15: China

I had some ideas for this one, mostly revolving around the whole Made in China thing. I even thought it would make a great excuse to have Chinese for dinner. Or rather, to make M get me some Chinese for dinner. Sadly, M's been away on a trip this weekend, and I was way too lazy to order myself takeout.

Luckily, I remembered my copy of the Chinese masterpiece, Sun Tzu's The Art of War, and in it, I found the perfect quote to represent Bob, who just can't seem to die and stay dead.

    The Art of War quote describes this challenge perfectly!

    I bought that book years ago to read on a plane. I never made it past the first chapter or so but I still often carry it because it makes me looks smart (or at least I like to think so)

    As this is my first time with Bob, I rather hope he doesn't die.

    I opted for Made in China - I've only got 2 prompts left (and I dumped out of 2 prompts) so not bad ....

    I love what you've done with China. It needed a makeover. "...Too lazy to order takeout." LOL! You crack me up.

    I've tried everything. Various weapons, knives, poison, a short drop and a sudden stop... Bob just won't stay dead!

    You only have two prompts left? Damn, now I feel really stressed out, I'm taking these one day at a time this time around.. Bad idea, I'm telling you.

    Haha, don't worry, while we bitch and moan about it, we start missing Bob when he's not around. ;)

    I'll tell you a secret... I've never read the entire thing, just various bits here and there. ;)

    Sometimes figuring out what to eat is a lot like going to war. It's a good thing you're got that book handy. I like your split screen representation for today :)

    Yes, I often use The Art of War when I'm trying to decide what to eat. Thanks, Mike. ;)

    But I didn't get to play with cool toys while taking my photo, so I think you win anyway.
