Had to vote for the only bike with a scantly clad woman on it. And because the bike is hot as well.

You are correct. Did not think of it in that aspect. Good catch. I would continue this discussion but this isn't the thread for that.

Yes, it was shaped like an upside-down pyramid! Pretty cool. There were a few other random shapes, but they didn't make it in time for the pic.

Good times in Snowmass last autumn...

Nope, just people that actually participate in the forum. Doesn't need to be a whore.

Hey, the flag isn't touching the ground, and I can't think of a better use that protecting a patriotic, 1/2 nekkid girl to keep her from getting cold!

§8. Respect for flag
No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor.

1. The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property.
2. The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water, or merchandise.
3. The flag should never be carried flat or horizontally, but always aloft and free.
4. The flag should never be used as wearing apparel, bedding, or drapery. It should never be festooned, drawn back, nor up, in folds, but always allowed to fall free. Bunting of blue, white, and red, always arranged with the blue above, the white in the middle, and the red below, should be used for covering a speaker's desk, draping the front of the platform, and for decoration in general.
5. The flag should never be fastened, displayed, used, or stored in such a manner as to permit it to be easily torn, soiled, or damaged in any way.
6. The flag should never be used as a covering for a ceiling.
7. The flag should never have placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature.
8. The flag should never be used as a receptacle for receiving, holding, carrying, or delivering anything.
9. The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard. Advertising signs should not be fastened to a staff or halyard from which the flag is flown.
10. No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations. The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart.
11. The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning

So, you can drape a flag over a dead body and it's ok, but not a LIVE one?

I believe SOCAL said it best

EDIT: alright, sorry everyone but I just couldn't bite my tongue. You're seriously going to compare an honor bestowed on a fallen volunteer soldier to a naked girl taking a photo for kicks?

I know, it was in jest. I don't think that pic is any disrespect to the flag, personally, and I'm very sensitive to such things.

[LordLosh]

[CYCLE_MONKEY]

Ok, so it's disrespect to the flag.....make her take it off!
