    This year for friends has been a weired one. I have lost 3 friends i would have taken a bullet for just to figure out in almost a decade (2 and one of 30 years) of knowing people you really have no clue who someone is.

    I encountered something today that I found extremely disappointing. While rerouting around the detour on 8th i decided to go down to 7th via an alley. Halfway through I saw an American flag still attached to a wooden pole sticking out of one of the trash bins behind a house.

    Needless to say the flag is now under my care.

    I also took specific note to which bin it was discarded as the addy was preprinted on it by the city when it was issued.

    Just seems that most everyone these days is out for themselves. Have had similar situations recently myself. There?s still a good few out there, but hard to weed thru all the rest.

    Very sad to hear this. Is the flag still serviceable? If not I think the VAs and Boy Scouts typically take them to retire correctly.
