Uummm…Olympic Medal…

Posted November 30, 2005 By Pattie Gillett

The medal design for the 2006 Turin Winter Olympic games has been unveiled and they’re looking very…Homer Simpson-friendly. There is a reason for the design, it seems. Something about an open piazza or town square. Center of Italian village life, etc. O-kay. You know how seriously Italians take design so I guess we should have seen this coming.

I’m also guessing that they are going to blow Greece out of the water with the amount of bizarre artistic imagery they can cram in the opening ceremonies. Brace yourself, Costas.

Nice discussion of philosophers and cookbooks over at Ethical Werewolf. I’ve chimed in on the comments there. It’s worth a look.

Yes I mentioned Alton Brown. And Dewey. Try to contain your surprise.
