Flags the official video for the song Under Pressure - 1981

 Happy Valentine's Day!

Every so often passions get out of control.  Groups and organizations often embrace power or anger to get their needs and wants heard.  But in 1981 a song was made that heralded a call for love - Under Pressure as made by Queen and David Bowie. 




The song is designed like a movie with an opening act, middle, and final act passionately evoking the spirit of love.  In the video the spirit of 1960s hippie love and romantic golden screen era kisses underlines this call to the heart.

Eurafrica Overlap Flag

The Eurafica Overlap Flag is for the region of Europe and Africa that are due north or south of each other, not including Asia.  Thus much of Africa can fly this flag.  Note since Kenya, Ethiopia, and Somalia share a total longitude with Asia, they can not fly this flag.

The upper right-fly side represents Europe, the lower left-hoist side represents Africa.  Although they differ like black and white, the red stripe down the middle indicates their blood is both red and they liver under a golden yellow sun.  

Nations that wholly reside in the Eurafrica Overlap longitude include: Nigeria, Togo, Gabon, Benin, Little Congo, Cameroon, and Chad. Note than Iceland can not fly this flag nor can the main body of Russia, except for Kaliningrad.

The South Aussiemerica Flag is a geographic flag.  It is dedicated to the private latitude where Australia and South America are parallel to each other.  It can be flown anywhere from 34 degrees 50' South to 39 degrees 08' South. This includes the nations of Argentina, Chile, and New Zealand. 

The South Aussierfica Flag

A new geographic flag that indicates the latitudes when Australia, Africa, and South America are at a parallel latitude.  Thus the seasons and stars match with a certain kind of charm for all of these lands "Down Under."  People often forget most of South America and much of Africa is below the equator. 

Subsequently any nation that resides in "Aussierfica Lane" can fly this flag.  Additionally any ship, car or craft to cross this space is entitled to fly this flag: 10 degrees 41' South unto 34 degrees 59' South.   Thus this flag can be flown anywhere on the continent of the nation of South Africa, Paraguay, Madagascar, and most of Bolivia. 

The flag is mostly based upon 20th century Australian flag, but the canton uses popular African colours.  The red line along the bottom establishes the connectivity between these regions of earth, and echos of Chile's flag.  

First Place Flag

The first place flag is based upon the flag of the United States.  Sometimes you can't be faster, stronger, or connected.  But there is an equalizer of being first.  Since the United States has earned so many first place discoveries the first place flag is based upon its national flag.

Likewise this flag is partly based upon the black and white checker flag, which signals the final lap.  But in this case the first place flag can be issues for nearly anything and anyone.  The first on Mars, the first to make a discovery, the first to climb a certain mountain, first to define a new word, first to discover a planet, first kiss, fist love, first child, first whatever.  

The US was first to walk on the moon, first to break the sound barrier, and many others.

Joker Bang Flag from Batman 1989

The classic gag of the toy bang flag made its appearance in the 1989 Batman movie. Hopefully someday soon they will make a retro Batman Arkham 1989 nostalgia video game. Imagine if they could put a modern Rocksteady gaming engine on classic 1989 Batman. Flying through Tim Burton's Batman universe with its original soundtrack? Awesome indeed. Then they will have to release an original 1960s TV batman game! Fighting baddies with the TV theme song would so rock!

The Batman of 1989 had his own unique costume and style.  The 1980s Batman was a further evolution of the campy Batman of the 1960s TV was turned into surreal comic book adaptation.

This batman was eminently played by Michael Keaton.  







Here the bat signal is given on the cloud tops, as means to call the vigilante of the night.

In the center of the flag is "Minion Eye" with a "#1" around it.  The number one is on the hoist side of the eye, while the number (or hashtag) is on the fly side of the eye.In another part of the movie the Minions can be seen holding red pennant flags unenthusiastically.
