Feb 14th: The eve of the Roman feast of Lupercalia. Naked youths would run through Rome, anointed with the blood of sacrificed dogs and goats, waving thongs cut from the goats. If a young woman was struck by the thong, fertility was assured. Pope Gelasius I decided this was a bit too much, and co-opted the Roman holiday to be the Feast of St. Valentine in 484 A.D.
Happy Valentines Day... I hope you all get the AIDS... - SIXX

Sorry for the delay in site updates. Personal business and all that.
Sadly, closing my eyes and listening to this, makes me think wistful thoughts of a long, low field of grass. The sun is setting in the distance, and suddenly... led and inspired by a large Bull in a white collar... a herd of cows all start singing... Amazing Grace. And as the crickets chirp, and the Sun burns the sky on its way down to sleepy night, true beauty is known for the first time. Should anyone come upon this scene, they would be struck silent by the majesty and mystery of 1000 cows, lifting their bovine voices... to God!
