My head hurts.

We'll start this post with a question.




What is this?





If you said a dog, you are incorrect. This is a picture of a dog. Semantics you say? You would be correct. Which brings me to the point of this post. How did we as a people go from using images like the one above to share ideas to the written word? As you can see the above image is clearly an image of a Golden Retriever which is a breed of dog. It is easy to make the connection. But now consider the word DOG. Think about how incredible it is to think that we can go from this.



To this, D-O-G, and you still understand what it is that I am talking about.

Just something to think about.

Til' we meet again
