Imagine This Blog Jumped Out Of A Cake

Dear Matt Andres,

Congratulations. You have been selected for a Surprise Global Art Exhibition.

Surprise!

Your pictures have been exhibited from the tip of Africa to the edges of Asia and across Europe and America, amongst many other fine continents.

Please find below some photographic proof of our exploits.

No doubt you’re busy asking yourself: Why?

For the same reason that someone holds a door open for someone else. Because it gave the world something to do. And, because no one involved knew who you were, it was a completely selfless act.

There’s not enough of that these days.

You may also be wondering who we are. Technically, we are an Elite Secret Army Of Ninjas.

We like your art Matt. We like you.

Thank you for creating it. We enjoyed sharing it with the world.

Regards,

Head Ninja(s) In Charge

Yes, "car hops" still serve you in your car in West Union, Iowa. (The roller skates are history, however.)

Indonesia

This PASUPATI Bridge connects two areas called Pasteur and Surapati, and PASUPATI is also the abbreviation of the name of those two areas. Other than that, Pasupati in Sanskrit is a name of a God's arrow that flies so fast. So this bridge is supposed to give you the 'speed' (in travelling inside this city). Taken in Bandung, Indonesia.
