Help. I’ve never posted a vanity, and I don’t want to start now, but I have a question about a flag I just saw on a neighbor’s house, and I thought that this would be the best place to post my question. My question: As I was just walking my dog, I passed a house with a flag I’ve never seen before. It has the regular stars and stripes but in the corner where the stars go, there is a circle of stars in the shape of an “O”. I’ve searched the internet and can’t find what it would be. It’s not the Ohio flag. I don’t want to think the worst, but the residents of the house are avid BHO supporters. Don’t want to be paranoid, but wanted to know if anyone knows what flag this could be. I’ve got to leave now but will check back. Thanks.

Our guys would like those, but I don’t love ‘em enough to do that much work. ;-)

I slice mine, take the insides out, stuff ‘em, put the bacon on top and throw ‘em in the oven.

I’ll be doing a cookout on a much ‘bigger’ scale....

I’m working at a Sonic Drive-In from 4pm to midnight.

We’re understaffed, and we’re gonna be busy.

Amazing that folks flock to sonic on the 4th of july.
But they do. Thanksgiving too.

I just got Johnsonville Brats $3.47 a pack

Funny thing. Regular hot dawgs were like $4

Good luck slinging slurpies!

Got a lot of rain here, so I think I will cook inside. Still going to see my small town’s fireworks, though, rain or shine. Hope your Fourth is a good one.

With or without the grit? Is the sand still blowing?

The sand blew all day. We're going on a week of that now. We've hardly seen the sun.

We still had fun. One of the guys counted that stars on the flag cake and noted that there were 52 of 'em. "What are the extra two stars for?" he asked.

"Why, for Iraq and Afghanistan," someone else answered. Yeah, OK, that wasn't exactly politically correct, but we just aren't.

Are y'all blowing stuff up yet? Did Achmed show up?

Have fun - I'm off to bed.

I have a 6 pound pork roast slowly cooking at 250 on a gas grill augmented with a terracotta flower pot base in which there are a fwe charcoal briquets and a small smoldering fire from hickory and cherry wood.The smoldering produces nice smoke
I hope to end up with smoked pulled pork to which I will add the proper vinegar and pepper sauce in the finest East Carolina tradition.

Earlier this morning I made a great post....

The search for governor Sanford....... a hike on the Appalachian trail

Actually, I work the deep fryers.

The hot, greasy, fryers.

Did I mention that it’s an unusually hot July 4th in Western Washington, with an expected high of 88?
