Today is the day of the Roman feast Lupercalia, and the day Saint Valentine was executed in martyrdom and consecrated by Love.




"Historians believe" Saint Valentine's story is most likely 3 different Valentines.
Because Saint Valentine is a revered Champion of Christianity the "right side of history" narrativists at best, grant him existence as a Bishop who continued to perform wedding ceremonies against the law.

As a celebration of fertility, a celebration of martyrdom, or a commercialized excuse to consolidate affection between couples; how do you celebrate the Legend of Saint Valentine?

If you dismiss this Holiday as Robin hood, why do you concede your folk lore to myth? Have you found better tales of meaning in harry potter and CNN?

the very first episode of the Addam's family there was a sculpture of the Capitoline Wolf in the house

do you think that's why Morticia and Gomez were so horny all the time?

A steak dinner, a glass of Lagavulin whiskey, then vigorous love making for two hours and we’re both asleep by eight thirty.

St Valentin is a great opportunity to not forget to offer a present to your wife or girlfriend...
Real start is from the Catholic England, 14th century, nothing else.

Sounds like the perfect night, hope it went as planned.

Reminds me of one of the most honest admissions I ever heard, from a coworker who said he always kept 30 minutes available for his love making, because that allowed him 25 minutes for the apology 😜
