Question by Vicky: Today is Run it Up the Flagpole and See if Anyone Salutes Day! What are some songs to celebrate?
” “Run it up the flagpole and see if anyone salutes” is an expression. It means to float an idea to see what people think, or if they notice. The term is commonly used in advertising and print media.

Run it Up the Flagpole to See if Anyone Salutes Day is set aside to allow people to do just that. Be creative today. Use this day to try and test new ideas and concepts. Don’t limit the ideas to business applications. In your personal life, try out a new dress or clothing style, perhaps a different haircut. Or, maybe buy a new houseflag and run it up the flagpole to see if anyone salutes…or even notices.”

It is also Boo Boo’s birthday.

I think we should celebrate “Burn” by Random Damage because they haven’t gotten the attention that they deserve!! They have this great sound, and yet they remain very underground.
