this is driving me crazy

What corporate logo does the City of Fresno's logo resemble? I think it's some energy company, but I can't remember which one.

Fresno:  the Pit of Despair!

This is driving me crazy! Well, that plus the heat & the boring project work ...

Isn't it something to do with orange or fruit juice? Sunny Delight perhaps? Or maybe California Raisins?

although i'd imagine that many, many energy companies have similar logos. this one, i think, is from NJ.

This might be what I'm thinking of.

I'm sorry. Fresno sucks ass. But Reno ain't that much better at the moment. But at least I'm now on my second rum and coke. Mmmmm, rum and coke.

That would be nice. But instead, I'm at work writing permit applications. In Fresno. At 8:10 AM on a Saturday.

It's very similar to the danger sign posted for lasers.

You're right. Weird, the city is warning everyone that it might blind you.

And also the boats (http://www.lasersailboat.com/).

Wonder how much that graphic artist set back the taxpayers?

I don't know. I don't wanna know. I just want to know what logo it is that it resembles, because it is STILL BUGGING ME.

It's possible that I've been thinking of this logo:

Sorry to pick at this old wound but....

You guys spoiled me last week getting the answers up so early. In search of brain activity, I trawled through Hans's journal (thus explaining the pictures, hee) and eventually yours.

I recognize it, too, and I don't think it's anything mentioned.

My two leading candidates:

Sun Oil (the Sunoco people, only not the usual arrow-through-the-yellow-head logo but one they may've used internally, like on the side of maintenance trucks and such? YOU try an image search for "Sun" if you want, but I'm not finding it)

or maybe this:



Ok, now it's driving ME crazy. -y+ier.

Hey, nice to meet you. Thanks for trying to help on this. I don't think I've found the logo I'm thinking of either. For some reason, I think it's an air conditioning company or somesuch.

It doesn't quite keep me awake at nights, but I am still obsessing over this ...

And yey! Cornellian!
