Have you ever noticed that the "E" and the "x" in the FedEx logo forms an arrow pointing to the right . Check it out. Tried to do a cut and paste, but it didn't work for me. Next time you see the logo on the side of a truck or a/c, check it out.

Interview with the designer discussing the embedded arrow aswell as his try at an MD-11 Simulator with a fiery result (Simulator didnt catch on fire, he crashed the plane).

I was about to spout off and call you an idiot for posting this but then I saw it and I stand mistaken. It is like one of those pictures you stare at for a few minutes to see a hidden picture.

Yeah, saw something on TV about that a couple years ago. Now whenever I see FedEx, the arrow is all I see! Thanks to ABK, I'm also going to see a tablespoon as well.

Grrrrrrrrrrr...........oh well

At first, I thought that you were just being a jokster or a Richard Cranium...then I "Googled" the FedEx logo again and looked at the small 'e'. All I could say was...Well, I be damn!!!!
