I agree with foodefafa and cyli.

It's impossible for another person to define what an image is to another, but a dialogue like this is necessary to establish a working understanding of what cost you're willing to pay in associating yourself with a symbol.

The Confederate flag COULD be considered a legitimate symbol of southern values and tradition, divorced from the slave trade, but even then, you'd have to be willing to potentially alienate any black neighbors and friends by displaying it in your house.

Overall, I think this demonstrates a similar affinity that people have for Che Guevera, who are unaware of the atrocities he committed in the spirit of revolution.

Hey all,

Thanks for leaving comments!

1. Right about the tidiness issue Gvinton. Mea culpa. I beg for a reprieve though! I just knew that I had to get submit quickly, lest I never, so know that I do intend to give the place a spring de-cluttering. [BTW, tossing that legacy lamp soon!]

2. Suzy*track, my dogs says "Thanks" and agrees that its time to organize the bedroom area. He's thinking small boxes...

3. ShelleyinMSP: Glad you loved the Captain's Chair! It's my way of channeling Capt. Kirk. "Mr. Sulu, warp factor 5!" Not a big fan of the trash can, huh? I do want to use that space more, but budget issues keep me from doing that best with what I've got....now if perhaps Gvinton would change his mind and give me a shot at some prize money....BTW, right you are, I'm XY.

Thanks All!
