Happy Valentine's!

     Valentine's Day has always seemed like a holiday that is more fun to observe without any commitment to participation.  After all, how can any "grown-up" form of the holiday compare to the thrill of those spent in grade school unceremoniously exchanging valentines picked from the many cartoon-character-branded drugstore versions.  These were always carefully chosen weighing popularity of character over the risk of choosing the same one as all of your classmates--only to find the next day that 3/4's of the other girls in your class also selected the Lisa Frank set.  
     Too bad we still don't tape little paper bags decorated with hearts to our desks in class, particularly considering how much more important asserting our pop-culture preferences is to our adult identities.  Just think how effective these would be:
