http://www.encyclopedia.com/html/s/stv1alent.asp BTW - Since I work on holidays ... my Valentines Day was celebrated on the 12th. We had the best time ... flowers, candy, dinner/cruise, dancing, dining ...... and the thing that most of you will find the MOST amusing is that I set up the BOSE in our hotel room !!!!!!!!! That's right - I couldn't sufficiently woo the girl of my dreams without superior sound in the background. I set up the laptop and the Bose and we had hours, and hours of concert quality, room filling, mood setting AWESOME sound. The hotel manager must have thought we were setting up a weather experiment when I rolled it all in on the cart!
I had wine and cheese, nuts and meats, chocolates and candles all over the room when we got there ... then the tunes just added the icing to the cake. Neither one of us wore red........ funny, huh?
would definitely NOT be a nice valentines gift to either give or receive. 
Play safe and Happy Valentines Day to all. - Scott
