Speaking of flags, (we weren’t actually, but we are now) my husband works at a high school with a large population of foreign students. The administrators thought that a nice way to recognize this fact would be to set up big display of flagpoles out front, flying all the flags of the countries represented by their students. Only … somehow a communist North Korea flag got mixed in there accidentally, and a whole bunch of people got offended. Whoopsie!
So the whole point of that story was to talk about this desk and the Union Jack trend. I think we can almost all agree that the Union Jack is a pretty rad flag. But … now I notice that this desk is not really sporting a traditional Union Jack at all, just some cool stripes. Hrm. Still looks awesome.
