Day twenty: When will it end? ( now )

Cat wins the prize for getting it first!

Tell her what she's won!

"Well she gets full digital rights to every one of the photos used in the marathon day eighteen post! She can make T-shirts, Mouse pads, and even tattoos of this image with a completely free conscience!"

Second prize goes to Bethany for the best reaction. Yeah the scream says it all.

backstory: the original picture is an advertisement for an actual guru in Varanasi who seemed to believe this was a perfectly acceptable way promote his spiritual services, and that maybe he would even see an uptick in business as a result of this fine portrait. He so in the dark I actually caught myself praying that enlightenment come to him soon.

Another scary thought, maybe this is the best picture he could find of himself.

Thanks for playing!

Too funny. We can kinda see the likeness now, but the Chinua we remember looks a little more like the first picture.

so funny,
when someone is selling their guru ness you know it's bhogus, and when they are praying to be enlightened, that's a double give away, true saints pray to be humble servants of god, not wanting anything for themselves but to offer their life and soul to serve god,

thanks for the laughs, i just chuckled a big one
