And this bonus quote section by amateurs--readers of the Washington Post.
The Washington Post asked readers to come up with inept romantic sentiments for Valentine’s Day. The five most unusual:
* Your kisses are sweeter than wine, but without the paper bag.
* I am irrationally exuberant for you in the third quarter of my fiscal life, with rising indicators.
* My love for you runs hotter than a ‘74 Nova with a V-8 engine and a busted water
pump.
* Darling, you make me as hot as those hand dryers in a turnpike restroom.
* If we were cockroaches, I’d want to have all 456,845 of your children.
