Is today your anniversary?
Well from the bottom of your heart,
Show your love how much ya care,
And head out to K-Mart.

Let your honey pick out a card,
One that she'll adore,
Read it then just put it back,
You'll save two bucks or more!

Then ya just wait so patiently,
For a sale to be announced,
Maybe a blue light special!,
On a toaster or wool nightgown.

Then take her out to supper,
(A dinner just for two)
Maybe a Big Mac or Whopper,
It's really just up to you.

Then cruise on thru a graveyard,
Flowers are always nice,
Grab a bottle of Ripple,
It's quite tasty over ice.

Tell her how much ya love her
How you'd do anything for your mate,
Get out of your clothes immediately,
Before the kids awake.

Very interesting perspective on romance. I really liked the last two lines. Excellent.

Well, old Toe - in your case, we need to revamp the bit about the graveyard...

Then go out to a yard of graves,
If you really must,
It's only there you'll find a date,
Who can match your lust.

She may be dead, but that's OK,
At least she won't say "No"
When she finds you're in decay,
And just how low you'll go.

Hey there, Toe - it's just like the good old days, including that lil Suthern Belle who should be showing up to defend you any moment now - lol

Ah, the romance of it all! LOL. I know LJA is really very appreciative of all the great ideas you've given him, but I hope for her sake that Lor buys a rolling pin during those blue light specials! LOL

So you're the no-good who taught my husband how to shop for our anniversary. Heck even when it's my birthday he takes me to K-Mart and picks out the most expensive card, lets me read it then puts it back.
STOP GIVING MY HUSBAND ANYMORE IDEAS!!!!!!!
