Flags in Mr. Wendal - Arrested Development 1992

In 1992 rap expanded in many directions.  In a positive direction we have Arrested Development.  In the video for the song Mr. Wendal 1992, a philosophical anti-ego beat can be noticed.  In stark contrast to Gangster Rap is the music by Arrested Development.

City side building flags can be seen hanging on the right side of the building.  They are nearly impossible to make out.

Flags in Oh, God! - 1977

 Oh, God! 1977 stars George Burns and John Denver in a cinematic classic that combines humor with a deep philosophical and religious undertow.  George Burns plays as God while John Denver is a humble assistant store manager.  This non-traditional non-denominational take upon God plays well with modern new age notions of what God, is in the afterglow of the 1960s cultural revolution.  Note this is John Denver's only major motion picture in Hollywood.  After this 'Glorious' diddy on a modern  God, John went back to singing.

 
The state flag of California appears in this movie during the court scene.  It is on the 'left arm' side of the California judge.







A theology flag appears when John meets a room of established religious big wigs.  It has a blue field and golden image, that is unable to be determined.



On the right side of the judge the US Flag appears in front of the witness stand.  Here God reluctantly preforms a miracle in front of the judge and witnesses to illustrate his divine power.

Flag for UK Heir apparent - grandson of the Prince of Wales

A flag proposed future apparent King of the UK? How odd indeed.  Since science has extended the length of a lifetime, Queen Elizabeth is now a great grandmother of four generations.  The Prince of Wales, Prince Charles, has a flag and his son William has a flag as the Earl of Strathearn, thus the soon to be born 'Prince, Prince, Prince of Wales' or 'Prince of Wales Cubed' ought to have a good flag.

Here is my fair proposal.  As any good flag conserves the original Royal Pattern, the red stripe in the middle of the 'garter' denotes that he is the grandson of the Prince of Wales.

It is very possible that Queen Elizabeth will live past 100 years, like her mother who lived unto the ripe old age of 102.

This makes the possibility of having a Prince of Wales to the 4th power possible since Queen Elizabeth will turn 100 in the year 2026.

A good name for the wee Prince shouda' be Kenneth or Malcolm. Its bout time a Scottish name be in the Royal Registry? Tis good chances the lad'll be King in the year 2088. Hows a King Malcom I of Great Britain and Northern Ireland sound?
