This is pretty random, but pretty interesting...

See the Arrow between the "Ex".

Now I know that's pretty random, but since we play at FedEx Field, it's pretty cool.

I remembered reading an interview with the designer of that logo some time back, so I dug it up: http://www.thesneeze.com/mt-archives/000273.php

Yeah, now whenever I see the logo, I don't even notice the letters. My brain focuses right in on the arrow.

Genious in marketing.

But if you are looking at the left side of the truck, the arrow is movimg backwards. :lol:

I saw some study of corporate logos about a year or two ago, and this was one of them. It said that most adults never see the arrow, unless it is pointed out to them. On the other hand, children who can not yet read, see only the arrow in the logo. Pretty interesting stuff.

I see a naked man.
If men can run the world, why can't they stop wearing neckties? How intelligent is it to start the day by tying a little noose around your neck?

I see Scarecrow from Batman Begins. Or maybe it's Jabba the Hut. Kinda hard to tell.

I can't stop staring at the measuring spoon and egg in the "Fed" part. Whatever FedEx is cooking, it's making me hungry. :lol:

I didn't get what you guys were talking about for such a long time. Arrow? What?? hehhe....nice pickup. I'm to busy to notice small things like that! :lol:
