Reprising The Pink Collar Jungle


Am I the only person who ever saw the Malmo
Girls, a gymnastic team from Sweden who performed in the mid-sixties on the Ed Sullivan Show? They did things with long ribbons and also, they tossed balls over their heads from hand to hand. And of course, 3/4, if not more, were blonde.

The original board had pastel gum balls glued to over the surface, one on each key. These degraded within four or five years and I pried them off using my finger nails. This was about a year ago. The poor headless Barbies have languished since.

I thought I might add more gum but also a pair of glitter scissors figuring that I can then talk about "cutting the ties that bind" and other such nonsense.

More to come.
