it's an american thing

so, the new trend-maybe new-or i just started to pay attention (the latter is more likely) is that some car dealerships surround their parking lots with American flags.

Do you think the boss makes them follow the American tradition and salute the flags as they go up the pole? a group of salesman, shuffling from one pole to the next, mcdonald's coffee in one hand, the other hand to salute.

ever since i saw that city blog picture of the car sale lot with the big banners like wings i started paying attention to our car lots.
