Did you put up a flag today? - username - 05-30-2011
There are 18 houses on our cul-de-sac. 5 of us put up flags.

Yes. I did.
You meant an American flag, right?

I have a flag up at the stable & at my house. They stay up 24/7.

One house flies a POW-MIA flag 24/7.
A "couple" flies their Rainbow flag AND the Yellow Equal Sign on the navy backround flag, 24/7.
And then there's the guy with the Maple Leaf and the AZ State Flag.

Colorful neighborhood. Nothing like that around here. We're one of the youngest couples on the street; most are retirees who probably wouldn't even know what a rainbow flag meant.

I like it. Can flag bunting touch the ground? Just wondering where the lines are drawn between bunting and flag.

let me guess which days, would it be vote for the dolt day? and of course, Presidents day and Memorial day.
I hope you have an up to date one?
58 stars and all.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. We put it up for the 4th of July, Veteran's Day, Memorial Day and....that's pretty much it. President's Day if we think of it but the other ones are consistent.

Couldn't face the flag this year, maybe next year.
Instead I ordered 500 packets of Tapatio. Half will go to my boy's unit, the other half to a unit missing a member. MREs taste like shit and baloney n' cheese sandwiches get old really quickly.

That's a big ass cul-de-sac. Is there a lake in the middle?
RE: Did you put up a flag today? - Maggot - 05-30-2011
Yup.....put them in the 2 big assed planters I gave my wife for Mothers day. (I waited 3 days after to get some good ones) They looked decent surounded by flowers and I want to put up a 24⁄7 one now. Everyone on my street put something out.

I only have a miniature flag that the USCIS gave my husband when he got his citizenship. I keep it in my pencil jar.
RE: Did you put up a flag today? - Maggot - 05-30-2011
I hang up a casket flag on the 4th of July on my fence. That thing is huge!

I'm in Calfornia. The houses are so squeezed together, we might as well be stacked condos.
And actually, I have 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 of an acre which is considered a nice sized piece of property here.

We had bought one last year...still in the package, so I decided to put it up yesterday, as did a lot of my neighbors.
Looked at the package, and it said "USA flag proudly made in America, accessories (pole/bracket) made in China".
10-1 the pole breaks before the flag even gets the slightest tear, or fades.
