Best as I can remember from a Simpson's episode:
Bart: Grandpa, why does this old flag only have 47 stars?
Grandpa: It'll be a cold day in Hell before I recognize Missouri.
Actually, my own grandparents stuck to their 48-star flag, for some reason. I think maybe they were less than excited about Alaska and Hawaii, or maybe they were just too cheap to buy another flag. ...
