    So, what kind of card did you give?

    ...for Valentine's Day, that is.

    I've gravitated towards the "I'm an idiot, thank you for marrying me" message.

    Regards,
    Tom

    I wrote my own. Great service. For 20 bucks a year I can create and print unlimited personalized cards. It's worth it even for 4 cards a year and assuming you only give cards on VDay, Birthday, Anniversary and Christmas you are already there. Plus once I set up reminders for birthdays, etc I get an email reminder.

      David,
      Bad link, could you post again. Sounds like a good idea.


      PS..FYI... The Snapper is still running like a champ, however it threw the drive belt last time out. Other than that She is still going strong. Thanks again.

        Chad,

        Try this one: www.bluemountain.com

        Glad to hear the Snapper is still running. I can tell you from experience they are tough to really kill. I paid for a lot of my college degree with what I earned riding a Snapper.

          It's always good for a laugh.

          I'm just not the romantic type and never will be. For our "honeymoon" (this after living together for almost 20 years), we went to Santa Maria on California's Central Coast where I attended an aviation seminar while she went wine tasting.

            I've been in San Jose all week, so who knows what evil awaits me when I get home tonight.

            I do have Japanese sweets, though, so there is some reason to believe I won't be eviscerated.

              Just a not-so-special card with a dozen roses.

                  My usual, a funny hallmark card and a dozen roses.

                      Wrote 10 things I love about her on a simple card and left a Happy Valentines day message on her voicemail at work.

                      When we got home, she made the infamous "Chicken Adobo & Rice" and I was in high heaven!

                        Snowed in for two days, so no card for either of us. We spent the day watching mushy movies.

                            I got away with just a white card that said "SURPRISE"! Of course, the two dozen roses and the little white Teddy bear may have helped my cause.

                              I can think of things that are much more fun if you are snowed in. After all, my daughter was born in September.
