Tony Orlando could not have said it any better. ;~)
LOL! Ever since this subject came up I've had that song running through my head. So let everyone sing, "Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the old, oak tree; it's been three long years, do you still love me. If I don't see a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree. I'll stay on the bus, forget about us, and put the blame on meeeeeeeee....."
I loved the end of the song where he returns home to find a HUNDRED yellow ribbons 'round that old oak tree.
