SOMETHING TO WEAR TO THE REUNION?

I recently received this e-mail from Mike Murray at Roger Bacon:
In the spring of 2007, permission was granted to the Business Outfitters division of Lands End to reproduce the OLA trademark logo for embroidered clothing sales. The OLA logo is now available to be embroidered at a nominal cost on a wide variety of clothing including shirts, knits, sweaters, outerwear and hats. To visit the OLA E-Store website, please click (or copy and paste into your browser) the following web address:

I can see it now: all of us coming into the Reunion wearing our sweaters with the OLA logo. Pretty cool - no, I mean spiffy - no, that's not right. What did we used to say when we thought something looked good? Oh, the memory is definitely going!

Just a quick comment, but at first glance, the O in this logo looks suspiciously like the symbol in the Reds baseball team logo. Anybody else think so?

Carol,
You are definitely right! Now the question is:
did the Reds steal it from OLA or did OLA steal it from the Reds? Of course, we didn't have the little man with a mustache running around, did we.
(maybe a few teachers, though...come to think of it.)
