Scarlet Ribbons

she wore scarlet ribbons for her hair....

well there's lots of ribbons...I always loved Scarlet Ribbons..a beautiful and rather spooky old song and Dolly Houston's version is my favorite

Ribbon of Darkness..a Gordon Lightfoot song that Connie Smith sang really nice...

but lately I've seen her ribbons and her bows have fallen from her curls...oooohhh...Dylan's Just like a Woman...can't ever forget that one

Tie a Yellow Ribbon....Tony Orlando's song...catchy and annoying

and this one Help me Make it Through the Night: "take the ribbon from my hair, shake it loose and let it fall" sang Sammi Smith...Kris Kristofferson wrote that song and I didn't know Kris wore ribbons in his hair..well whatever dude

and whatever you do ..DO NOT put ribbons in your dog's hair! just don't...

and then of course there's the Ribbon of Shame...remember that one...all the folks at the News-Press were so worked up over that ribbon...they kept declaring in editorials that if the Ribbon of Shame was cut, one of their ultra-conservative candidates could finally beat ol' Lois Capps...so finally the ribbon was cut with re-districting and still Lois won! sorry Abe

and Blue Ribbon panels....oh I hate those...what kind of an idiot would be on a Blue Ribbon panel? conservatives always call for Blue Ribbon panels to study an issue when they lose an election!! ahaha

now I've made some excellent points today and it's clear that ribbons have no place in politics, but in your hair, tied back or slightly falling, well that's another story altogether...
