and to some people the Confederate flag is a thing of pride. That's why they
hang it in their front yards, and I doubt that there are any people (not to

redneck. I wasn't trying to be negative, but BTW I don't think you have to
support the Confederacy to be a Southerner.
Anyway, I noticed that Playmobil makes one that's about the right size for a
front yard, but too big to fly from the back of a pick-up.
