Flag for Earth's Second Moon - 2016 HO3


2016 HO3, or rather Ho Ho Ho 2016, is a new moon.  Not a new-black, nor a new-empty, nor a new-non reflective moon; but rather a newly discovered moon!  A natural object placed in the heavens that is in orbit around Earth.  We humans became aware of this moon during the year of the Monkey and month of Taurus.  We could call it Monkey-Bull or just Monkey-Boo HO Cubed, or Mo-Bo Ho Ho Ho.  Note that it is the letter 'oh' and not a zero.  I know, so confusing that o,0,O can so easily get mixed up, especially when you write em'.

Note this moon will be in orbit around our humble abode for the next few centuries.  Interestingly, there is no lower size limit on moons.  A rock the size of your hand, could be a moon.  Perhaps the moon of an asteroid?  Yet there are size limits on planets.  Thus you'll never hear astronomers speak of a Dwarf Moon, or failed moon.  Sorry only planets and stars can fail.  Moons are special because they come in any size.  Unless... they get really big and become stars.  Thus the biggest moons are Brown Dwarfs, which are failed stars.

The colours of the flag and astrological associations are black, yellow, and blue.  Coincidentally the Astrological symbol for 2016 HO3 is in the canton area.  It is a fusion of symbols form the Western-Symbol for Year of the Monkey and the sign of Taurus.

Earth's neighborhood just got a little bigger this year. It used to be just the two of us: the Earth and the Moon.  But Earth also has a Trojan Moon and now an outer Moonlet.  How wonderful!

So here is the revelation, it not only orbits the Earth but also our Moon.  Thus our Moon also has a satellite, or rather 2016 HO3 is a moon of a moon!  Sort of, it does not directly orbit the moon but in follows an orbit around our Earth-Moon system.  Thus it does qualify as a type of a moon of our Moon, believe it or perhaps not!

The American Ethnic Flag, The Un-Hyphenated American Flag: Americans First Flag


Americans come in a variety of ethnic backgrounds and many people like to identify their American heritage as being of another nationality first, popular examples being Irish-American, German-American, Asian-American, or African-American.  This leaves the door open for just plain Un-Hyphenated Americans.

Un-Hyphenated Americans cherish their ethnic/religious backgrounds but primarily identify as Americans first, and yet they can enjoy their histoical heritage with pride and parades.   Since many American-hyphenated groups have flags, it makes sense to give Un-Hyphenated Americans a flag as well.

The official American flag should suffice, but the American Ethnic Flag distinguishes paramount identity to being American rather than some other nationality or a hyphenated-American.

The canton is a reflection of the legendary Betsy Ross Flag, the field of red indicates this person is a wholly red blooded American first.  Additionally the red field is an honor point to Native Americans, whose traditions, religions, and cultures are acknowledged and respected with this flag.

Persons of this American-first identity put America first in business, culture, politics, values, and of course rooting for the USA above all other nations even if they are at odds for the other team who just happens to be of their particular heritage. The white lower square under the blue canton brings balance to the traditional American colors, and represents the power of Providence or synchronicity.

This is not a flag for white-Americans, black-Americans, yellow-Americans, brown-Americans, peach-Americans, tan-Americans, or any other type of American...but for All Americans who identify as Americans first.

Oh My Dayum - Five Guys Logo in Augmented Video 2012


The Five Guys burger logo is visible on the cup that is being sipped.  This man, Daym Drops, has truly found a Cheeseburger in Paradise in the year 2012.  Although he was just making a simple Youtube simple critic video about a tasty burger joint, it turned into wonderful hit song on the Internet.


Red Cross Logo in Michelle's Song "Not Today- The Building is on Fire" January 2016


Who would have thought, you do a television interview and can become a musical pop star? Andy Warhol must be giggling in his grave? It's the 21st century and we are just getting a taste of the augmented reality that will make new stars, and drive new economies?

Here Michelle Dobyne, became a Youtube hit singer, by being her honest self. Consequently her hit Internet song is Not Today - The Building is on Fire.

Masters of the Universe: He-Man - Vexilloids from the Live Action Motion Picture


A tacky delight from 1987 are the vexilloids in Masters of the Universe - The Live Action Motion Picture.  A colourful cheesy fun film for kids, that somehow got its own big budget movie.  Although He-Man had a sword, Skeletor has a Ram's Staff of Power. 


Large Skeletor Banners are hanging from Castle Greyskull on either side.  They are coloured mostly purple and black.







Long yellow vexilloids are seen hanging from a doorway.  The purpose is never explained but they have original movie made alien writing upon them.









Here is the best picture of a proper flag, that is barely visible in the background of some wreckage of some sort.









Courtney Cox is a part of the He-Man universe.  Believe it or not!  Our friend here is standing in front of the band's stage in the gymnasium.  Certainly Courtney Cox could star in the remake, but on the other side ...working with darkness this time?






Amazingly the Star Trek and the Friends universes are united though He-Man.   Cox's boyfriend in He-Man-land is Star Trek: Voyager's Robert D. McNeil.  Surely McNeil could star in the He-Man 21st century reboot?

Halloween Pennants in E.T. 1982


Perhaps one of the hardest to see vexilloids is the orange Happy Halloween pennant streamer hanging along a house.  It is visible when E.T. just happens to run into a Yoda, while trick-or-treating.  The vexiolloids are hanging from what looks like an open door garage.

E.T. meets Yoda in E.T. 1982.  The E.T. and Star Wars universes intersect more than once.  Several times, Star Wars toys can be seen in movie E.T.  Eventually Star Wars would repay the cameo, when E.T.s appeared in Episode I.  But the most important link between these movies is through the musical score of John Williams. 

Music is often the most important character in any movie, and Williams' role is understated, otherwise these movies would have most liked had lackluster, tacky 1980s musical scores, no doubt.





Pennants in E.T. 1982

 

Small pennants appear in secondary media items in the movie E.T. 1982.  When E.T. is reading an ABC book, he just happens to be looking at pages with the Letters D and C.  On the Letter C page, a castle is shown.  Upon lower red tower is a storybook castle pennant.

Although the letter D is the dominant page in the shot, on the right you can infer the Letter C page is there due to the word 'cat' and 'castle' appearing.  Most importantly here, for vexillology's sake, is the castle pennant.

Coincidentally it happens again in another secondary media item, a newspaper, while E.T. is reading the comics.  In this case E.T. gets the idea to send a signal home, since Buck Rogers was able to build a device to send a signal for help. 

However the pennants are on the lower comic where it features a tent pole with the pennants on top.  It is only an amazing vexillological coincidence that pennants would appear twice in a similar fashion in this movie.
