I always feel like this logo is warning you not to buy in the tsunami zone.

Dreamwidth and Debian
Whenever I visit a Dreamwidth journal and leave it open in a tab, I always find myself wondering why I was looking at the Debian GNU/Linux website. For possibly obvious reasons:
I can’t imagine how I keep mixing up a dark red 1½-turn counterclockwise spiral with a dark red 1½-turn clockwise spiral! 😀
OMFG & 2010
Funny: Logo for mfg.com looks like it says OMFG.COM
Can’t believe it’s less than half a year to 2010. It seems even more like “the future” than 2000 did. (Well, I guess it is.)
Who ya gonna call?
The logo on the left was spotted on fire extinguishers at two different coffee shops (different chains, even). The one on the right is, of course, the logo from the 1984 comedy/horror film, Ghostbusters.
Maybe I’m imagining things, but does anyone see a similarity here?
When it has to be there in a Flash
A while back I was driving on the freeway and noticed a truck with this logo:
OK, so I’m maybe a bit focused on the Flash, but then I started looking at the design.
- Red as the main color
- Sans-serif capital italics (just like the longest-running versions of the Flash logo)
- A lightning bolt that runs from the upper right to the lower left.
Hmm…
It got me thinking about commercial applications of super-speed. Not something that turns up often in the super-hero genre, but it shows up occasionally. Kapitalist Kouriers is the first one that comes to mind. They were a trio of Soviet defectors who decided to sell their services as couriers and, from time to time, heroes for hire.
