Let me share with you the story of our new neighbor.

We live in a rather rural county in NJ.

We have a new neighbor who is an executive at Johnson & Johnson.

They arrived here from England.

The first thing they did, even before they were completely unpacked was take down the AMERICAN flag flying on the flag pole in front of their new home and replace it with a British flag.

As parents of a young soldier, we always flew the AMERICAN flag. However, considering our proximity to NYC, just about every house flies the AMERICAN flag.

If they chose not to fly the AMERICAN flag that would be fine, but to replace it with a flag honoring another country left me unimpressed with our new British neighbors.
