That's funny. I was just thinking that you could harness the power of teenage boys wrists to generate far more energy than was being created through Nanowires[^]. You could power a city block of one spotty teenager and he'd be giving something back to the community.

I admit there is a saying 'Love is Blind'. Would that mean this catastropic cat-walk to empty the bank account?

Nope - it means that even a pig in lipstick stands a chance at love.

You can train us to buy roses, but we will always wield them like clubs beating you into willingness!

"bottles of wine" paid for with "change"? On the next morning, you two will feel like clubbed unconcious.

You forgot to add "and want to be"... ;P There's nothing like being bombarded with all the Valentine's advertising to really raise the spirits of a singleton!

Willing submission? :D Nah, not really - Amazons are far to tempting. So that's why willingness - unless that's the completely wrong word.

This helps to keep the stems of the flowers straight while they are out of water.
You always pass failure on the way to success.

See, if you buy the ones they haven't hacked the roots off of, you can actually keep 'em alive for a while... :^) The day's a sham in any case. I've pulled off several nice, romantic dinners this year, thoroughly enjoyable for the both of us... but today, because of the expectations pushed on her by all these damn advertisers, i can pull out all the stops and it'll still feel forced and unpleasant. Even with plenty of wine, there's just no substitute for spontaneity.
But who is the king of all of these folks?

I also celebrate St, Trifun - the protector of vineyards[^] today, but I guess both Valentine and Trifun can coexist peacefully :)

just run down to the jewelry shop buy a rose dipped in gold, $50USD, they gift wrap it, sign the card, take home. Of course you can't wield it like a club.... but nothing says "I love you" like a living thing killed and preserved forever by dipping in molten metal. ;P

I'm feeling sorry for all the blokes who are being blackmailed into buying flowers, candy, and jewlery not because they want to but because they have in order to keep the peace.
