You asked for it...


This is a picture of the front of our house. We really don't know what to do with the flag pole. If we take it down, our neighbors will think we're unpatriotic. If we leave it up, we have to fly the American Flag--which means we will not only have to buy one, but we will have to take it down when it rains and call in the boy scouts to fold it properly. 'Tis a quandary. The other option is to keep our neighbors guessing by flying a variety of flags on occasion...the only flag I own is a Taiwanese flag, we could also fly BYU or UCLA flags on game days, a Hawaiian flag would certainly keep people guessing, or we could come up with our own flag design if we wanted to. The possibilities are endless. All I know is that if we are here long enough to have teenagers...who will have sleepovers...some one's underwear is going up that thing! And it better not be mine!

you're genius. I'd love to see a pair of boxers run up that thing, just for comedy's sake. I love how much thought is being put into the flag pole.

That's great you have a flag pole! IMHO, you should only fly the US flag on official flag days like Independence Day, Flag Day, Memorial Day (coming soon), Veterans Day, etc. Plus don't forget you need to take it down at night, unless you have it illuminated, which might bug your neighbors.

That's a great looking house. Congratulations!
