American Dad - altered mini US Flag Pin

Dad from American Dad
his lapel pin is supposed to be the American Flag

American Dad is an adult cartoon parody on Conservative Patriotic American Families.

The lapel pin of Dad is supposed to be the American Flag but due to the complexity of 13 stripes the artists draw it differently. Usually it only has three stripes and varies in pattern between white-red-white or red-white-red. In either version the canton is simply a blue rectangle minus the stars.

If the artists would have settled on four or more it would have looked more like an American Flag.

The other version of the Dad's lapel pin that looks more like the original Confederate Flag.





Close Encounters of the Thrid Kind - 1977, the Mayflower Flag

Reconstructed Mayflower Flag
The Secret International Agency on Alien Affairs

1977 was a cosmic year with the release of Star Wars and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. In the latter a fictional flag appears that represents the government agency responsible for the study, coordination, and cover up of extra terrestrial alien civilization.

The flag consists of a white background with the agencies logo centered in the middle. The logo consists of a black isoceles triangle with the words 'MAYFLOWER' written along the bottom and a radiant light blue star near the apex.

The International Alien Agency Flag
in between the US and French Flags

Apparently in this movie the French and US government are working together under the 'black triangle' flag to study and welcome extra terrestrial life to earth. The triangle is already an important symbol in the US as the 'Eye of Providence,' which can be found on the back of a US dollar bill.

Notice the 'triangle' agency alien flag is centered, while three alien aircraft hover overhead. In the upper left are blue lights, the upper right are red lights, and a small ship or probe is over the runway.

Eurocorp - a fictional icon for the G 57 network


In 2069 the net will be beyond Generation 57, if they are still using that archaic term.

The logo of Eurocorp in the Syndicate Universe consists of three pentagonal shaped arrows - two white and one orange. 2069 will be a strange world. People will be able to tap the brain waves players and coaches during the game and not just observe but feel.

Credit Card Flag from School House Rock

The US flag is portrayed as a credit card. But it only has 11 stripes - six red and five white. Instead of a field of stars on the canton it is written 'Credit Card'.

















Viewing government debt as a monster or dinosaur does not help. But remember we the people created that debt or monster. Rather look at it as a crying baby that needs a lot of tender love and care. Our debt baby kept us free from communism and helped Grammi and Grampi live longer.

Focus on fixing instead of fighting. In the 1960s Americans looked at the travel to the moon as an inspirational challenge instead of it being 'Nerd Dragon' that will eat millions of US tax payer dollars. America was happy to feed the 'moon monster'. Or rather take care of our Moon Baby.

Futurama Olympic Flag of the 31st Century


The Olympic Games are apparently still held in the 31st century. Naturally robots about make the best judges.

The Olympic flag of the 31st century features two extra rings and different colours.

French's Flag - the Classic Yellow Mustard


Contrary to what the name suggests, French's mustard is not made in France. Rather it is made in the USA in New York State.

The important part of this logo is that it utilized a flag as its center piece. On a red field is the name written in white - 'French's.' Underneath the ch's is the registration date 'Since 1904.'

They claim to be 'America's Favorite'
