I don't get the one with the eagle.  Is that a guitar and a grapefruit?

I'm not certain, but this is my guess.

If you look at "Google" as the United States, the "G" is the West Coast and California, hence the Golden Gate Bridge.  The "L" is the statue of Liberty in NYC.  The lower-case "g" would be the restof the East Coast, with the bottom of the 'g' representing Florida, where we get our oranges.

You're a real thinker there, Chuck.  Maybe the guitar is for Nashville.
