Well, I must say, this Valentine’s Day thing was a really good idea.

Why, already so far, I got stabbed by an arrow from **Euty** , air kissed by **Nyms** , and handed lots of chocolate by **Daniel**.

Hmmmmmmmmm-

Whom should I choose?

Aw, what the hey? I choose all three!

Orders an Extra Large ACME Rubber Band, and an ACME Super Range Valentine’s Arrow.

Ties the ends of the rubber band to two trees, ala Wylie Coyote.

Nocks the arrow into the rubber band, and starts stretching it, running back about a quarter mile.

Releases with a mighty **BOOOOINNNG!!!** , sending the arrow streaking at supersonic speeds bearing 44 degrees away from me.

Waits for it to arrive. 😉

I hope it didn’t hit you back otherwise you may be seriously hurt unlike Wiley Coyote, your probably not a cartoon with infinite immortality like Kenny. “Oh my god” “You killed Kenny” “You Ba$…ds”
