Fun with Rorschach

Maybe block-walking in the hundredsomething-degree heat yesterday fried a few too many of my brain cells, but does Donna Howard's district look like a dragon to you?


See, KT said it reminded him of a dragon, but to me it looks more like a manic poodle. Meanwhile, Mark's district looks like a malformed lobster, Elliott Naishtat's a puzzled ferret, and Valinda Bolton's reminds me of my mother. There are probably better maps out there, but this one is the best thing that twenty pages of Google searches turned up. (Howard's website, however, features a much larger depiction of the alleged dragon, which up close looks suspiciously like England rotated ninety degrees to the right.

Coincidence? I think not.)


ETA: Looking back over this post, the fact that I spent a Saturday afternoon Googling maps of District 48 is both alarming and way lame. I need to get invited to more parties that don't have "Democratic" at the front.

While students across the country are basking in the sun, rubbing on the tanning lotion, searching for shapes in the clouds... the Campaign Academy is finding dragons in Congressional Districts.

I knew it would be a fun summer.

BTW I think the lobster looks like a rhino's head.
