I saw a picture of some arabs burning a mosaic of us, uk, au flags, and it made me thing about good business opportunities: selling au flags to arabs! They probably have already burned enough USA and UK flags not to bother to pay high prices for them, but I imagine an Australian flag would sell for much more that its value!
The evening of the day the SCOTUS decision on flag burning was announced, I was walking through a local shopping mall when I passed a table where they were selling small (IIRC 4" x 6" (or 10 x 15cm for Alberto)) American flags. I considered suggesting that they might improve business in light of the day's news by offering a free book of matches with every flag sold. (I figured they might not be that amused, so I refrained.)
