Random Fact

Random Fact of the Day:

Any U.S. citizen may purchase a flag that has hung over the U.S. Capitol by going to the website for your state's Senator or Representative and filling in whatever form they have under "buy flag" or "flag order."

It is possible to ask for a flag that was flown on a specific date, but I'd bet good money that flags flown on Inauguration Day, Independence Day, or 9/11 are booked into infinity.

Second random fact of the day - Congress ran out of flags shortly after 9/11.
