Those were my old high school colors, too. Why couldn't we have been the Kent-Meridian Squid instead of the Kent-Meridian Royals?

There's a great bar in the east village I used to frequent. Learned to play pool there.

Da. Those are the colors of the Ukrainian flag, with its big blue sky over vast fields of golden wheat.

Indeed, the great cephalopod smiled upon me today... I found out who stole my squid-themed licence plate in October 2005 and can now begin the process of recovering the money it cost to replace.

I bet that person is going to be surprised when they get my message.

These colors are consistent with the blue and gold crews of US nuclear submarines.

U! C! L! A!!!

"... you bring the whiskey, I'll bring the dame..."

It does look more like a "golden domer" than a Bruin. The blue's all wrong for one thing. A Cal Bear? Perhaps it's Oskie with his mask off.
