It’s the white space between the “e” and the “x”.
Nope. Been too busy Reading Pennsylvania.

Lord help the guy Flushing Meadows.
Northwest Airlines blew it with their new logo. The old logo had a some great hidden symbols in it.
Notice in the old logo, how you can see it either as an “N” or a “W”, and the corner of the W points northwest, compass rose style?
Now, it’s just dumb and boring.
But it shouts out to their official rap group!
Is it just me, or is this thread making anyone else really thirsty for a carbonated beverage?
The old Southern California Edison (SCE) logo was made to look like a plug. The S was the cord, the C was the base and the E was the prongs.
The Milwaukee Brewers logo has an M and a B in it.
I can remember an old (70s) Canada Dry ad that used the tune of “Ain’t She Sweet?”
o/ It's not too sweet! Got the flavor that can't be beat! Canada Dry Ginger Ale, it's not too sweet! o/
Or Lan(c)ing Michigan
Used to. Now it’s just a big “M”.
It doesn’t take any “credentials” to be a Kentucky Colonel; you merely pays your fee and collects your certificate. It’s a very antiquated goofball designation which means little to nothing except for whatever bragging rights you wish to milk of it.
According to the Wiki article, 'The sitting governor of the Commonwealth of Kentucky bestows the honor of a Colonel’s Commission, by issuance of a certificate." This is merely a formality.
The Colonels do use the fees they collect to support a wide variety of charitable causes, so they aren’t entirely worthless. To someone like Kentucky native Ashley Judd, though, it’s something fun thing to go around claiming to be because, after all, everyone has heard of Colonel Sanders.
“Colonel Ashley”, huh? Looks like Shaw missed it by THAT much.
To add to the “Wheeling West Virginia” theme, here’s many a libertine’s dream.
Also, the Montreal Expos’ logo featured a stylized tricolored M (for the city) which included a red e for the team name and a blue b to represent “baseball”.
Er, what about the FedEx logo?
I always kind of liked how they worked the “11” into the Big 10 logo.
Aw, never mind. Somehow I missed the posts ‘splainin’ it. I need to refresh my IP’s or something…
I have long suspected that the Doper confusion over where pineapples grow comes becomes they’re called pineapples. Apples grow on trees, therefore, pineapples … don’t, actually.
I think in my case it’s because they have skin like a palm tree so they should grow in a palm tree. And they and bananas are yellow tropical fruits so they should both grow in tropical trees.
It’s not two penises?
Well, as long as we’re talking about logos, here ya go. (I got the link through here originally) Unfortunate Logos.
