About the logo
|
The logo dates back to around 1998 when I used to "burn" customers that were probably a little too ignorant to be building computers in the first place. I'd like to think that I'm not so arrogant anymore (although I may still be), but the I think the logo is still funny. The image was scanned from the warning tag on one of my wife's curling irons. I replaced the image of the curling iron with "jonnyGURU" and the logo has been my avatar ever since.
