"Analogous," a word meaning, generally, having shared similarities, has been a part of my daily vocabulary for over fifty years, whenever I plan a color scheme for some project or another. Today, "analogous" is this yellow pansy, which shares its color with the fading orange chrysanthemums and its own green stems. The nursery workers who plan these pots for the downtown area certainly know what they're doing. I wonder how many flats of yellow pansies and pots of orange mums they had to order to cover this year's plantings?
Meanwhile, the little purple guys nearby are holding their own, providing a bright contrast to the borders of dried out, browned hydrangeas behind them.

Lovely, Speedway. So bright at this icky time of the year.
The … er … anal in analogous reminded me of the old Google Analytics doohickey that used to appear in these comments boxes in olden times. It was always cut off by the width of the window and read "Google Anal …"
Well, Dive, I noticed it, too. Considering that the yellow pansy is aBUTTED by green and orange, maybe it's appropriate. :-D
Ha!
