Exactly

Since this mornings post, I had a meeting down the street and walk by the Chambers office. It is just a block away, as I walk by this morning, I, being the pain in society I am, walk in and ask the question: "Who designed the new logo?", I was expecting an answer with a high dollar design firm attached. The answer was "Jeremy, Why?".

I pre-qualified my next statement with: I'm color deficient and I see things differently than most poeple, for example, I see the arrow in the FedEx logo most people do not see. She had not some seen the arrow, she said she will have to look at one. I told her that I saw the newest Chamber logo this morning on a website and it hit me weird. It was very phallic, if not pornographic. I pointed to it ans said: "See the phallus, in a penetrating way?" She looked for a minute.. looked away and said almost exactly what you did: "Now I can't not see it".

They call Jeremy down. I explained the situation to him. He said he really does not see it. He explains it is one of about 40 logos they did, and no-one else saw it that way. I am only guessing, but there was probably a "focus group" of some kind involved.

Now that I have set the meme in place, and it can not be unseen, the next game is: How long until there is a new logo? Days, Weeks or Months?

Things which, once seen, cannot be unseen...
