The right-side flag is the official Whiskey flag. Isn't it?

I would guess that the left flag is the one for "moonshine"

And trust me that in a little rural 4 room school in 1952 or so teachers spanked kids, washed their mouths with soap, corrected their spelling, and had never heard the term "self asteem" applied to children. But even so, some kids didn't learn to read anyway. That's why things got changed. Your rightwing ideology didn't work then, doesn't work now, and if we bombed ourselves back to the Age of Lizards, it still wouldn't work.
It was a joke...humor...levity to bring cheer to an overly bombastic discussion.

Lighten up Francis...

The flag on the boat is a red outer square, with a white middle square and then a blue inner square. The international signal for "W" in fact is a blue outer square, a white middle, and a red inner square.

So just exactly who is the clueless twit using your login to post these absurd articles????
Yep, you are right, I had the colors inverted and it is in fact not a "W" flag, so I was wrong and admit it...

Having said that, nothing else changes, I will admit when I am wrong, you are wrong all the time and try to sidestep facts with constant blithering... Differance between the two of us.

Reminds me of a kid I went to grade school with who couldn't spell very well, but when we checked our spelling lists the teacher would first give us the words to write down, and then we checked them ourselves when as the teacher read off the correct spelling for each word. This fellow would miss 2 or 3 out of ten, and every single time when the teacher gave a spelling different than his he would raise his hand and say, "Miss Finholm, you made a mistake!"
Ah, that explans a lot... you never changed when you grew up... "Starlite9 wrong!" because you got it wrong...

Kinda like the guy asking a question to a Police Officer about a ticket "A Friend" got...

Figures...

Oh for sure. An example might be how wrong you said I was about when the shore ice forms at Barrow, and you posted a video to prove it. Except for the minor detail that the video proved that what I said was precisely true! So you posted a picture of a boat not being frozen in to prove you were right. I pointed out the boat wasn't being frozen in, and I posted an image taken the very day after yours... and your attempt as sidestepping that, in addition to the absurdly invalid comments about the flag, was to actually argue that I couldn't prove my picture was actually taken on the date I said it was. So I showed you the dates on the NEF file... but here you are blithering again.

Now, it's pretty clear that when you called me clueless about the flags it was because you are clueless about flags. And it is also clear that your statement that I am wrong and attempt to sidestep and blither is in fact just another attempt by you to sidestep and blither, which you have done again and again and again.

Incidentally, both you and Ray seem to have missed the fact that the purpose of the flag was already provided (in the message that showed the picture of the flag). Why can't you folks pay attention to detail instead of trying to imagine all these useless blithering idiotic sidesteps?

And please stop projecting your errors in my direction!

The flag seems to make a nice diversion from your lack of general knowledge of the seasons there. Posting something like your "NEF" numbers is a hoot, that proves you typed in what you wanted and copied it to the thread as if that was credible, that is pretty sad. It may or not be factual, but to claim because you said so, won't convict anyone in a court of law. My photo was taken at West Dock, done in the 2009 season, we only had the boat there for one summer, to which there is a spring and fall, and that was clearly fall. Since the orginal post was done in 2009 and dated on the Thread, that makes it pretty much factual... sorry you don't grasp that fact...

The "Video" I posted was shot in 2008, the photo of our boat getting iced in was taken in 2009... A year later, for which they were dated when I posted them, and yet you still can't "grasp" that fact during your "Nanny, Nanny, Boo, Boo!" dance.

I simply couldn't access the 2009 season video... Maybe you can with your great level of expertise...

Regardless, your blather is getting pretty boring.
