I wish all parents had "My kid is an honor roll" bumper stickers. I wish we all wore Livestrong bracelets. I'd like to teach the world to sing, in perfect harmony. I'd like to buy the world a coke and...<br />Wait! That's already a song.

I just always am amused by stories about the origins of things and how they never really represent what we think they should.<br /><br />I always made the vietnam connection as well until I really listened to the song a few years ago. I noticed the singer was a criminal leaving jail and not a soldier returning home and the entire thing threw me for a loop.<br /><br />This really started because I need a color not being used by another ribbon so I can make my ribbon to "increase ribbon awareness"Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15897700063744746464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30951741.post-65712377788496178522006-09-27T16:43:00.000-04:002006-09-27T16:43:00.000-04:00How about mauve colored ribbons?
I never realized...How about mauve colored ribbons?<br /><br />I never realized what the genesis of that song was, I always thought it was about Vietnam, but I do know that Tony Orlando was glad the song was used as a rallying cry for returning soldiers.....So I guess it underwent an evolution....Rex Zeitgeisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08642575223837309912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30951741.post-44674942404103850622006-09-27T16:32:00.000-04:002006-09-27T16:32:00.000-04:00I see what your thinking is, where you're making t...I see what your thinking is, where you're making the connection. The yellow ribbon thingey symbolizing "welcome home" has become pretty universal by now, though. Everyone sees it in a benevolent light, so I'm guessing the returning soldiers appreciate it.Serenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00798532682456165053noreply@blogger.com
