Flags

Just for the record, I adore the Maryland state flag. I want a bike jersey made up of it. Its eye-catching combination of the Calvert arms and the Crossland arms would surely ward off all evil cars.

But this guy has the audacity to diss my favorite flag. "Maryland is worth special mention for managing to jar the eyes without resort to an easy out like excessive typography or detailed portraiture." Harrumph.

His analysis is based on the methodology of this grading of the flags of the world, which I thought was hilarious.

I agree, I like the Maryland flag. I really like it the way they pained it on one of Southwest Airlines 737's. Pretty cool.

Thank you for letting me get one more answer right on Jeopardy last night. This flag made an appearance. Frankly I think it is hideous but who am I to judge??!!
