Baseball Graphs = Internet Cocaine Fancy Tickling, Hot Shit, Learning, Sporting | View Comments
I love baseball. I also love graphs. Thus, baseball graphs are basically internet cocaine for me (notice how I alluded to this in the title). This isn't the best one over at Flip Flop Fly Ball, but it is certainly the newest: [via (the bomb ass) Flip Flop Fly Ball]

The Best Flag Ever (Reprise) Fancy Tickling, Hot Shit, Learning, Life | View Comments
Last week Kottke proclaimed the following to be the best flag in the world: That's the flag of the Benin Empire, a pre-colonial African state situated in modern Nigeria that lasted from 1440 until 1897. While quite awesome in its own respect, I must object to Mr. Kottke's proclamation. Frankly, for my money, I don't think it gets any better than the flag of the country in which I currently reside: that of the Democratic Republic of the Congo...about 15 years ago. The current regime's idea of a flag pales in comparison to the one (below) that flew over the Congo during ...

How to look at billboards (and fat kids dancing) Fancy Tickling, Funny, Learning, Life | View Comments
Here is an excerpt from "How to look at billboards," a fascinating essay by Howard Gossage from the February 1960 issue of Harpers: What a billboard looks like has nothing to do with whether it ought to be there. Nor does the fact that it carries advertising have anything to do with it, either. It would be the same thing if it were devoted exclusively to reproductions of the old masters; just as the open range would have been the same thing if they had only run peacocks on it. The real question is: has outdoor advertising the right to exist ...
