Webdings: A short span of history

[Raziaar]

Okay so... I was studying CSS, and the subject came up on fonts. I was thinking about Dingbats and WingDings... and checked out the wikipedia entries. I then came to the WebDings web entry found here.

And I saw this image:

Thinking to myself, hey there's a lot of interesting stuff in here. I wonder if I can use it with very very few modifications to create a little time line of American History of the past 8 years starting from the 9/11 attacks. The image is intended to be viewed row by row left to right. I couldn't think of a better way to throw the flow together, so here it is in rough form.

So here it is... my stupid idea of using webdings to create a short time line.

Ha, very nice. Now please do New Zealand history from 1700 to 1900 for me so I can pass my exams.

That was hilarious, especially the part where you go into the future.

Terrible situations always seem so humorous when put in a cartoony format

The future?

I thought I only covered the past and present... the last bit being world markets also declining.

Well I guess I just saw it as the bailout causing the economy to plummet even further in the future.

You know and that's funny, because today as you may know, the stock market did collapse even more. It was at 800 or so points down... before finally resting at 300 something in the hole by the time they closed... this being after the bailout passed.
