Ran it up the flagpole

               ‘Intimate gathering’
                  advertised
               Curiosity piqued...

                  poked my head in
               ~ cozy canoodling

               'Ran it up the flagpole'
               (to see if it would fly)
               was an overused ploy
               from the advertising 
               world of the 1950's 
               and 60's.
