What better way


to celebrate Hallowe'en er, Valentine's Day, than to show your love in getting closer to your loved one.



(Sorry about the error, I get Hallowe'en and Valentine's day mixed up. They're both very scary... )

Besides, Valentine's Day is one of those special event days manufactured by, and for the benefit of, greeting card companies.

and don't forget florists. Though, I find long stem red roses to be over-rated. I happen to like lilies.

Put that in your hookah and smoke it, religious police. It doesn't have to be red roses!!!

I'm just thankful it hasn't been incorporated into the liturgical calendar.

That's right, Morganor. Give them orchids. Orchids can be beautiful!

Can you imagine the vestments if it were incorporated into the liturgical calendar? I shudder to think about it. And the little chocolate wafers...
