A Joke:
Little Melissa comes home from first grade and tells her father that they learned about the history of Valentine's Day. "Since Valentine's Day is named after a Christian saint and we're Jewish," she asks, "will God get mad at me for giving someone a valentine?
Melissa's father thinks a bit, then says "No, I don't think God would get mad. Who do you want to give a valentine to?"
"Osama Bin Laden," she says.
"Why Osama Bin Laden ?" her father asks in shock.
"Well," she says, "I thought that if a little American Jewish girl could have enough love to give Osama a valentine, he might start to think that maybe we're not all bad, and maybe start loving people a little bit. And if other kids saw what I did and sent valentines to Osama, he'd love everyone a lot. And then he'd start going all over the place to tell everyone how much he loved them and how he didn't hate anyone anymore."
Her father's heart swells and he looks at his daughter with newfound pride. "Melissa, that's the most wonderful thing I've ever heard."
"I know," Melissa says, "and once that gets him out in the open, the Marines could blow the shit out of him."

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Okay, sorry, I couldn't resist.
Last night was nice and relaxing. Since we are heading out to dinner tonight, last night we just relaxed at home and ate snacky type foods for dinner (shrimp with cocktail sauce, cheese, etc.). It was nice. We watched "House" and ordered our Save the Dates and invitations.
Now I'm working and grooving to the background music here. Its very chill music...
I clicked on the link for Simon Pearce and I am TOTALLY gonna go there for my anniversary in June. I think I ate at the Lenape Inn that used to be there.
