Irving: How do I love thee? Let me count the 255 devices your brand-new Valentine universal remote could control! My love is wider than what could be your new 55-inch high-def plasma TV! Deeper than the bass frequencies produced by what could be your new 4000-watt subwoofer! higher than the 15,000-song count in the new 60-gig video iPod we could share! Cathy: Candy, flowers, jewelry and/or mushy card. Irving: My wife rejected the Valentine upgrade. Men standing in line: Women just don't understand romance. Valentine Check Out
The day after my husband & I spent our first Valentine’s Day (when we were dating) I went into work. We were kind of the “it” couple so a lot of the ladies surrounded me, especially since I looked so happy. They asked me what he gave me as a gift. I smiled & said, “Guess”. They guessed flowers, candy, jewelry, a car (!), vacation, etc. I kept shaking my head “no”. Finally, they couldn’t take it anymore! They gave up & asked “WHAT?” I put on a dreamy expression and sighed, “A semi-automatic .22 rifle with a nylon stock & a scope!” They left me alone after that. (Side note: I LOVED that rifle, as I’ve always been fascinated with firearms, and I STILL have it, 35 years later).
