View Full Version : Reminder: Valentine's Day is Thursday
Yeah, I know....it's 'just another day'....but take a minute tomorrow and pick up SOMETHING to show that special person that you really do notice and appreciate that they put up with you....as hard as that can be sometimes.

Well I suppose a bunch of flowers would be more appropriate than say a new lawn mower :|:
I tried a new shovel once but I was the one that ended up using it. Not exactly what I had planned.
Maybe dinner and a movie.Rent a dvd and buy KFC chicken take out . Oh I'm just a born romantic.

might do a pickup dinner and a movie. I have downloaded a handful the last week or so and the wife is in to small meals now. Who knows, maybe I will make her some fancy eats. :)

Well, Valentine's Day is certainly a worthy occasion, popular as it is and all. However, we've decided to blow off the whole valentine's thing completely and instead put our energies into a different celebration, and of course most won't understand.
It's the death of one of our heros. And sunglasses, hat, and cigarette holder are mandatory.

I knew Butch would understand. :)
That's a GREAT pic! :thumbup:
is that the guy fear abd lothing in L.V. was about??
Yep, most certainly autobiographical. Check out Hell's Angels if you want to read even more autobiographical material.

I loved fear and loathing, read it in my early twenties, reread it a couple times since. Hells Angels was also a good read. :)

Ran into the store to pick out a card, thought I found a good one. Wife reads, it turns it over, and says, "Why did you buy me a black card?"
Me: WTF?!?! untill I see this http://www.hallmark.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/category3%7C10001%7C10051%7C-102154%7C-102001;11446;-102154%7Cecards%7CMahogany

Same here!
He bought the chocolate yesterday, put it in the beer fridge (saw it when I brought out the chili to cool.) That was nice. The sticker said it cost $8.95.
But what really turned me to mush is that before he brought it in when he got home, he TOOK THE PRICE TAG OFF! Doesn't sound like much, but this is a man who's idea of a good first Christmas present was a bottle of wine, in a paper bag, WITH the pricetag (cheap wine at that, lol.) Who says you can't change a man!? Ha! :D

Today is a good day to be in the floral industry.
I bought mine a dozen roses, no chocolate.
And I got a box of Turtles. Sweet!

Can someone tell me when this became a thing just for the women? I thought this was a day for sweethearts, not just a day for women. Did I miss something over the years alone? :?

I really don't have a sweetheart, just a very good friend that happens to be a woman. I did wish her a happy Vday last night on the phone, she is 270 miles away.
Squishy, I have never been a sweetheart, and I get reminded of how big an asshole I am, a lot. :lol:

Ever heard of the black pages? It's a phone book put out by the Yellow Pages people for the black community. http://www.duboislc.org/BlackPages/FrenchLetter.html
A lot of people don't know about this either.

I'm glad it's over; bah humbug for Valentine's Day. Now only another 365 days until my singleness is spotlighted again. I celebrated though. I bought myself a sixer of Snow Plow last night to tell myself how much I love myself.

I bake my husband a German Chocolate cake EVERY February 14th.....this was about the 25th February cake I've made him.....and the FIRST one that wasn't heart shaped. I must be getting less romantic in my old age. :P
