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:

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.
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 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.
