Not that I really go by that; I give more niceness than I get.  |  IP: Logged Tom Doyle Expert Film Handler Posts: 176 From: Bristol, CT, USA Registered: Nov 2002 posted 02-18-2003 09:17 PM                     Gee, a few people here are a bit sour about Valentine's Day, I guess. Well, at our theater we did a special show for it. We have a 16mm film collector show old movies on the weekends. This past weekend he did a double feature: Dracula (1931) and Nosferatu (1922). This was planned because the original premiere of Dracula was on Valentine's Day. (Maybe I'll scan in some pictures from the show sometime and post them.) Did any other theaters do any special shows or promotions? For those of you that don't enjoy Valentine's Day, here's a link for you: http://www.theonion.com/onion3905/valentines_day_cards.html Valentine's Day cards as done by The Onion! These are the same ones they show every year. If you are easily offended, don't look at these cards or, in fact, anything else on The Onion's website.  |  IP: Logged Bob Maar (Maar stands for Maartini) Posts: 28608 From: New York City & Newport, RI Registered: Feb 2001 posted 02-19-2003 03:08 PM                        This belongs here with the stories of "Love, Honor and committment". Surprised Valentine George in Phila. At the office, where I worked, there was an angel there. Her hair was long and flowing, and her skin was soft and fair. I wanted so, to ask her out, but I was way too shy. I thought she was too beautiful, for me to even try. A few times I approached her, she just smiled and walked away. I couldnot get the courage up, and "Hi" was all I'd say. Then, I had an idea, I would get her home address, And send a valentine to her, and with it I'd express, The way I feel about her, and the way she makes me feel, And the feelings that I have, are very, very real. I'll tell her, that I dream of her, and how it all would be, If she would only take the time, to be alone with me. I poured my heart out in the card, and ask her to be mine, And then I dropped it in the mail, my special valentine. In just a few short days, I had a response in my mail, A card with her return address, I started feeling pale. I wondered what she said in it, and what she thinks of me, I guess the only way to know, is open it and see. With great anticipation, I removed the envelope, And closed my eyes a moment, as my heart filled up with hope. I opened up my eyes to see, a card shaped like a heart, And in the center, someone drew, a bloody piercing dart. I opened up the card to see, if writing was inside, And when I started reading it, I damn near almost died. I'd love to be your valentine, but I think I will pass, My husband says he'll be at work, to kick your stupid a**. I'm glad you like my body, and you think it's really fine, My husband says this card is going, where the sun don't shine. In your card, you said there's things to me you'd love to do, I think my husband's going to do, all of those things to you. So, have a Happy Valentines, I'll see you Monday morn, My husband says on Tuesday, you'll wish you were never born.  |  IP: Logged
