- No, it's a joke. I guess you don't watch baseball (the marines marched out with an
- upside Canadian flag when the Jays played in the U.S.). If I was patriotic I would
- have put a U.S. flag upside down, to indicate that I was insulted by them putting
- our flag upside down. I put ours upside to indicate that I thought it was funny.

- Can't believe I had to explain this :)
