Today is February 14th.
In some cultures that makes it Valentine’s day. Or, if you own a flower shop, the day you pay off your mortgage.
Of course Valentine’s Day is memorable for a lot of reasons. Here’s a few:
Oscar Wilde’s “The Importance of Being Earnest” opened in 1895
The St Valentine’s Day Massacre took place in Chicago.

As is usual some of the more amusing suggestions are in the comments ….

From Trinity:
Happy Valentine’s Day Michele!
c’mere.. in the words of Voltaire..
“Love is a canvas furnished by Nature and embroidered by imagination”
From Kae Verens:
looks like someone didn’t get a pressie this morning!
