Happy Flag Day

Happy Flag Day, all. Perhaps not one of our most serious holidays but I’ve always loved the striking appearance of the U.S. flag. I’m more than happy to show it off a little–click on any of the images in this post for a larger version. Especially since some see it as a sign of occupation, as Rick noted a while back.

Continuing a pattern, the Microsoft search engine Bing notes the occasion this way:

Google, well, couldn’t be bothered.
