Noticed on my way home this evening that the giant flags at the car dealerships west of the river were flying at half staff. I searched online and didn't find anything about it.
Anybody know?
They had to put VP Cheney back into the hospital today. Most likely it was just wishful thinking. [}:)]
One of the managers at Bob Hurley was killed in a motorcycle accident last weekend.
That explains it. Sorry to hear that.
Sorry for the death of their friend, but isn't that improper flag etiquitte? I thought only the President could authorize the U.S. flag to be flown at half-staff.
I believe the Governor can also order flags to fly at half mast in their own state.

I thought only the President can authorize the U.S. flag at half-staff; the governor can authorize the state flag at half-staff. If it is a private/business logo type flag, the owner can do whatever he wants.
