There's a popular Finnish comic strip that has character who looks like this (the bald guy):

http://www.cupika.fi/images/etusivu.gif http://www.kvaak.fi/images/articles/02092008154249-1.jpg

For the longest time I was wondering, "Why the heck does he have a weird skin flab under his nose?!". Then I happened to read some of the early strips where he was drawn a bit differently, and it turns out he's supposed to have a "boxer's nose": the upper curve is supposed to be the bridge of his nose, and the lower curve is the actual nose. I still get angry at the artist anytime I see the strip in the papers: there's no way the reader can interpret those two bits as part of the same nose!!

Amazed by many of these logos, but esp. FedEx arrow. So elegant. There's a brief interview with the designer here: http://www.thesneeze.com/mt-archives/000273.php.
One other thing about the logo: the bottom of "ed" in Fed falls ever so slightly below the writing line. Wheels of a truck? Or am I making stuff up now I can't look at logos in a normal way any longer..?

Treacle sponge is also golden syrup iirc. And my parents called the golden syrup cake "treacle cake" but 1. Google is not backing me up there 2. apparently there is also a McVitie's / Lyle's black treacle cake which I have never seen in the shops and now want to try.

(Even though there is currently a cake turning to cardboard in my fridge after we ate about 2 slices each, because we are not big cake eaters. Not that you'd know it to look at me)

In 1982 necrophage bees were discovered--bees that feed on carrion. But they don't make honey in carcasses. They spit on the rotting meat and then slurp up the broken-down protein slurry and bring it back to the hive where it's partially digested again and deposited in little containers to feed the larvae.

the problem with the WH Smith logo snoball posted a ways back is that it's so counter-intuitive with regard to standard reading patterns. in decoding english, the eye wants to go right to left, top to bottom, but that logo insists that we go bottom to top. the first thing we hit is that squared-off 'W', which looks more like an upside-down 'M' (a letter that's much more commonly squared like that), which makes me want to read it spinning clockwise, left to right: MSH.

a cool thing to do with magic eyes, instead of staring off beyond the plane, is to fix your vision just short of it (i.e., looking at it sort of "crosseyed"). then you get a weird inversion of the image. instead of a happy lil bubblegum vomit shark swimming along above a bubblegum vomit river, it's a twitching, shark-shaped hole in the river's surface. trippy!
