MSNBC put together a list of worst gifts for your valentine, and of course, I gotta annotate:
1. Lingerie: This one is simple to explain – men and women just don’t have the same taste in underwear. Besides, you guys never get the sizes correct.
2. Gas-Station Flowers: Nothing explains her placement on your list of priorities like a gift that says, “You’re an afterthought, honey. Happy Valentine’s Day!”
3. Gym Membership: Only a coward would do this, and I’m betting he doesn’t look so good either.
4. Cliched Jewelry: Ummm….how do you say….heart-shaped jewelry is out like the 1980′s, and it’s damn ugly!
5. Household Items: What’s wrong with you? Valentine’s Day should be either fun or miserable, but it shouldn’t involve cleaning or cooking.
Agent Bedhead’s No-Buy List Additions:
1. Tom Cruise DVD Compendum
That about covers it on that end. What should you give your lady?
One can never go wrong by splurging on an Italian dinner and a long backrub. In the alternative, a gift certificate to Victoria’s Secret would be superb – that way, she will find sexy lingerie that she adores, and you will reap the benefits. Repeatedly.

for the love of the amelie, though, don’t send massive amounts of V-mail to EVERYONE YOU KNOW
I couldn’t agree more! Although, chocolates are always good, just don’t buy the stupid heart shaped boxed stuff.
ok, got it…
return the hoover and get the walmart gift card instead.
I bought Lynne a spa day. 5 1/2 hours of massage/facial/body wrap & a light lunch with a little champagne.
I do ok??
I’ve got my evening planned

i think the spa day would go over well with most women, so in my opinion, RW, you did just fine.
Yeah. Spa days are usually good.
DO tell, MOP.
Oops, sorry — I pasted in the website but it just inserted the link without text, so here goes again: Lucha VaVOOM!
The main page is here. Don’t tell me that this isn’t going to beat a silly ‘spa day.’
Um yeah. That’s sooper classy.
I did the Spa thing for my sweetie too, but there’s no way I could afford a 5 1/2 hour package. She seemed OK settling for the massage.
Wait a minute — Valentine’s Day is supposed to be classy?! Are we talking about the same holiday: the one invented by Hallmark?
