    "The polaroid gentleman has stolen all the light in London and all the colors in New York. Is he a postcard manufacturer, or maybe a silent film maker? I don't know. I just like how sincere are his pictures and the beautiful colors he catches wherever he goes."

    "I was talking to a friend a few minutes ago after he asked the quesiton, "If you could have any super power in the world, what super power would you have?" I have a standard answer to this question... control time. Forward, backward, slow motion, etc. You could rule the stock market and make lots of money, ace any test, become president of any country, pull awesome matrix style bullet dodging moves, get anyone to fall in love with you, do cool magic tricks and troll any magician, and simply rock.

    But I gave a different answer this time. Controlling time would be cool, but I want to know how some people think. It would be awesome to be able to truly understand how a person creates something so dang cool. My friend said, "What?". I had my Flickr pulled up to the GA's stream. "Just look at that," I said. "How can you tell me that this isn't completely brilliant?! Wouldn't it be awesome to be able to understand how someone creates things that are this awesome?!" He looked at the monitor, "Yeah."

    "But it'd still be cool to travel through time.""
