What is the Story Of The Ribbons?

On a recent trip from Massachusetts to Ohio, Visor Enterprises founders noticed numerous small magnetic ribbons clinging to the rear ends of cars, trucks and SUVs. Telling us that "Freedom Isn't Free," to "Support Our Troops," and even to "Viva Mexico," whatever that means, these ribbons reminded us that yes, we live in America, and yes, some people like Mexico too. Actually, they reminded us that the car bumper is the ultimate forum for political discourse, and we had a responsibility to join the debate.

We immediately started asking the tough questions. Where do these ribbons come from? Do they deserve to be there? How much do people pay for them? And, most importantly, is anyone making fun of them? The answers to these questions are a resounding "Ribbon Factories," "Sure," "About $2.99," and "No." So we decided to step up and do what we could for our country: bring our nation together through jokes. (And by "bring together," we mean "point out the differences in").

On March 2nd, 2005, Visor Enterprises launched its salvo in the War For Our Bumpers: Support Our Ribbons. Ribbons support many causes. Isn't it time we supported them? Available today, many beautifully designed ribbons can be found online at this web site.

What Does Visor Enterprises Support?

Besides supporting the drivers and passengers on America's highways and byways, we make periodic donations to Operation Uplink, a program that provides free pre-paid phone cards to active-duty military personnel and hospitalized veterans. We'd also like to support a little league team, although we'd require them to submit to random testing for steroids.

One reads: "Bring Them Home" and the other: "Out of Iraq."

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

blue one that says "Bring home our troops." Actually, there's one on my car and the other (in case the first one got stolen) is on my refrigerator. I initially purchased a bunch of them and left them in an envelope in my car. Over the past couple of years, I've given all of them away to people who said they liked it.

Edited to add: It was heartening that I gave them all away while still living in Texas.

It says: "Pray for cheap gas."

I've been looking for one like that.

One of mine:
