The Star Tribune had an interesting story today about the theft of flowers from cemeteries; often, it seems, the family of one deceased rips off the flowers to put them on the grave of another deceased. Sweet.

The U.S. flag code might disagree with the caption writer, not to mention the method of disposal. The flag is never considered garbage.
