My brother once referred to my memories of college and the people I met there, as being in Kodachrome. Kodachrome was the first color film that used a subtractive color method to be successfully mass-marketed (as per Wikipedia) It made everything look better than in black and white. The truth is, my imagination plays tricks on me and I invented many false, positive memories about college. Paul Simon said it better:

If you took all the (men) I knew
When I was single
And brought them all together for one night
I know they'd never match
My sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white
When I was single
And brought them all together for one night
I know they'd never match
My sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white
Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day
I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama don't take my Kodachrome away
