Hoist the jolly roger

When I lived with Scott I owned a pirate flag. You know the familiar skull and cross bones model, which I believe is called a Jolly Roger. Well we decided it needed to fly from high atop our third story balcony.

After a week or so the apartment people told us we had to take it down. I noticed other apartments were flying various flags. So I went to the office and asked to see some documentation on the ruling, they had none. They said the flag was inappropriate.

The U.S. flag I get, but people were flying things like bumble bees and butterflies. I told them if we had to take ours down then the bee was coming down too. They didn't see it this way, and I finally gave it up. But most days after 5 P.M. and every Saturday night, the Jolly Roger flew proudly anyway.....harrrrrg
