Awareness Ribbons
Awareness Ribbons
Spotlight: Pink ribbons are meant to raise awareness of breast cancer; red ribbons remind us of AIDS; blue ribbons symbolize the fight against child abuse, prostate cancer and second-hand smoke; yellow ribbons welcomed home the US hostages in Iran in 1981, and await deployed US soldiers today. It all started with the yellow ribbon mentioned in a song sung by members of the US Cavalry, which inspired the '70s hit, "Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Ole Oak Tree." In 1991, Jeremy Irons became the first celebrity to wear an awareness ribbon onscreen. The red ribbon he sported at the Tony Awards signified his support of AIDS awareness. Today is World AIDS Day.

Quote: "Let us not look back in anger, nor forward in fear, but around in awareness." James Thurber

Wow. And here I thought I knew all the symptoms of being a Wikiholic… Must have missed one in the giant list that was compiled and posted in a new section of the site called: Wikiholics Anonymous.

It’s ok - this is a safe place. Just sit back, let go of the keyboard, and take this simple test to know if you’re a true Wikiholic.
