On
Valentine's Day I always try to do something a little extra —
like hold the door open for her when she goes out to shovel the
walk.
I'll never forget that special valentine I got in high school
from my girlfriend's mother:
"Roses are red, daisies grow straight;
If you keep seeing my daughter,
you'll wind up fish bait."
Remember, ladies, call your husband at work and wish him a happy
Valentine's Day. That way he won't forget to pick you up a gift
on the way home.
Red is
the official color of Valentine's Day because it symbolizes the
embarrassment on the man's face and the anger on the woman's
when he forgets it.
Mixed
emotions is when you get a five-pound box of candy with a card
that says, "Please be my Valentine, Fatso."
Valentine's Day is a day for love. Florists love it, candy
makers love it, greeting card companies love it....
Valentine's Day is named for Saint Valentine -- who drove the
greeting cards out of Ireland.
Just
checking to see if I have everything I need for tonight. Let's
see, flowers, candy, theater tickets -- Now all I need is a
date.
Valentine's Day started with the Roman festival of Faunas, the
god of fertility. As part of the ritual, the Roman men would cut
strips of goat skin and run strike all the women. Which may have
been fun for the men, but wasn't too exciting for the women. Or
the goats.
I'm a
romanticist. I always buy my wife flowers on Valentine's Day
because I love her. And because, if I don't, she'll kill me.
Last
year on Valentine's Day I tried something different. I stood
outside my wife's window and serenaded her. I was singing our
song, "Disco Duck," -- she opened the window and threw the cat
at me.
Remember, guys, the color of the flowers tells your girlfriend
exactly how you feel. Red means love; pink means friendship; and
yellow means you're scared to death of her mother.
I
learned my lesson years ago. I sent my wife flowers on
Valentine's Day and she put 'em in the salad.
This
year for Valentine's Day my wife wants me to stay away from her.
With
the price of Valentine candy, you'd think there was a chocolate
crisis.
Remember, February 14th is a day for love and kisses and romance
and passion -- but you can forget all that if you
forget the flowers and candy.
It’s
Valentine’s Day, ladies. This means you may can get him to take
you to a movie without any explosions in it.
Even if
candlelight doesn’t set the mood on Valentine’s Day, it can at
least hide some of the mess in your house.
On
Valentine’s Day, romance is in the air—it’s no wonder so many
men are disoriented.
In
England, it's a tradition on Valentine's Day to give your
sweetheart a gift of fruit or money. Money is better -- it stays
fresh longer.
For
most men, ordering flowers on Valentine’s Day is easy compared
to deciding what to put on the card.
What a lovely
night out. We stayed right through the last tag team match.
What a
romantic evening! The strolling violinists even played our song
-- "The Theme from Jaws."
I got
my holidays mixed up. For Valentine's Day I got my girlfriend a
box of chocolates shaped like Abraham Lincoln.
