Today is Valentine’s day, the official day of love, and almost everyone sends or receives a Valentine’s day card. And by everyone, I do mean everyone – because no one is immune to love. So I thought it would be great idea to show you the Valentine’s cards from the people and organizations that you wouldn’t normally expect to send Valentine’s Day cards. Here are 10 of these cards.
All cards created with the help of punchbowl.com.
Happy Valentine’s Day to all of you!

I know your weather is much colder than ours, but it’s very possible we actually get more snow than you, because we get your cold Canadian air mixed up with all the moisture from the ocean.
But even here, we usually think “boy we’re glad we don’t live in Buffalo.” Not these last few weeks, though 🙂

Actually, I just googled that, and Alberta gets about 51 inches on average, and Boston gets 44. But I think this winter we’re at 80 already.

Those are absolutely the best cards ever. WHY are you not working for Hallmark by now? Speaking of loving gestures of romance, I have a post tomorrow about the movie that premiered, naturally, on Valentine’s Day – 50 Shades of Smut staring Kim Kardashian who might actually have a role in it as random naked person. I wonder how many of the Religious Right were there . . .
P.S. I was not.
LikeLike
I was hoping you had something to say about that movie. You already had so many posts about the books, omitting the movie just wouldn’t seem right.
I think it’s a good thing that I don’t work at Hallmark, otherwise this post would cost you 40 bucks or so, although that would include some more or less mismatched envelopes.

@Elyse: Poor Boston! They just cheated their way to a Super Bowl! Screw Boston. Meteorological, cosmic payback.
LikeLike
I’m not a Pats fan, but I’m pretty sure that Pats fans probably think that some extra snow is a small price to pay for a Superbowl win. But it’s interesting that all these snowstorms started just after the Deflategate game, with 1.5 times the annual average snowfall in just three weeks, so it does look like cosmic payback.
Of course, the most effective form of payback would have been Pats losing the Superbowl either in a blowout, or in an embarrassingly accidental last-second upset (like the way they won), so this cosmic payback thing just hasn’t been thought through really well.
