13-year-old Addison Logan was browsing yard sales when an old Polaroid camera caught his eye. He bought it for $1 — and discovered a photo of his dead uncle inside.
“I was just blown away,” Addison said after realizing the man was his uncle.
[Addison’s grandmother] Lois Logan recognized the other person in the photo, as well: It was her son’s old girlfriend, Susan Ely. She figures the picture was taken during Scott Logan’s senior year of high school or freshman year in college, 10 years before a car accident took his life.
Meanwhile, no one knows where the camera came from, who took the photo, or why it remained stuck in the camera for decades.](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4qz22w6691qf5y35o1_500.jpg)

Digo Yo…Edición Académica
Digo yo, que pocas veces le dedico comentarios a cosas como estas en mi humilde blog. Siendo un espacio dedicado más a mis hobbies, es más común ver aquí goles, banderas a cuadros o claquetas.
Sin embargo, he de admitir que leyendo los logros del tocayo, me he sentido al menos, gratamente sorprendido.
Pocas veces le damos espacio en los medios, nuevos o tradicionales, a aquellas personas que desde el sus puestos de relativo anonimato (digo relativo, porque estoy seguro que en la comunidad académica este señor debe ser conocido y respetado, es decir, MIT president, bitches) realizan labores extraordinarias.
Así que ver que alguien nacido en Venezuela, Maracaibo para más seña, alcance una meta de este calibre, es digno de felicitar.
Por eso, dedico y envío una sinceras (y anónimas) felicitaciones al Ingeniero Rafael Reif, por su elección como el 17mo presidente del MIT, insigne institución académica reconocida a nivel mundial como uno de los centros más importantes de creación intelectual (y personajes de Big Bang Theory)
Ojalá que este tipo de cosas, logros a base de talento y esfuerzo, así, libres de tintes y colores, sean la regla y no la excepción.Kudos, and hats off sir, mad respect.

Digo yo (bilingual edition)
Now, since Formula 1 official language is english, let’s use ye old language.
I’d say that this is a moment to relive, again and again.
For the first time, we, lucky ones, get to hear the venezuelan national anthem at the end of a F1 race. To understand the emotion most of us feel (venezuelans, that is), you have to put into perspective that some of us even got a lullaby to the same tune.
A great day to feel proud about what we can accomplish, setting all this political crap aside. Congratulations Pastor, and thank you for giving us today, at least for a few moments, that which is so rare and precious these days in Venezuela, unity as a country.
We, as venezuelans, are not living the happiest of days (despite what some might say). The absurd levels of violence, the hardships of everyday life and most of all, that unerving feeling of living an undeclared war amongst ourselves, take most of our mindpower and attention, it would seem that arguing has become our way of life.
Yet, from time to time, and more often than not through sports (or music, magnificen orchestral music), we get that chance to experience joy together, as one nation, celebrating the idea that he, she or those who represent us, also represent what is good and positive about this country and its citizens, that when they triumph, we all do.
So, for the day, I will put all that baggage aside, political, social, ideological. Today I just will enjoy, and then repeat, that particular moment where a song meant to represent us as a nation plays, telling the world that “hey, look, we are Venezuela, and we can do great things too”
Thank you dude.
