In the last few years, there's been this debate going on here in the fine state of Maine, about whether or not we should change our state flag. In fact, I feel like about the only more useless thing that's often debated and gets about as much traction, is whether or not to do away with daylight saving time. But that's a whole other rant. The on again / off again proposal would have us switch from the blue Dirigo flag we are all familiar with, and change it back to a previous design from 100+ years ago. And honestly, from this man's perspective, the blue Dirigo flag is kind of strange. The depiction in the middle is a bit odd for a flag.
