Goat Dancing Strictly Forbidden Within RB City Limits

Columnist John Bogert writing in the Daily Breeze (dailybreeze.com) today hit one out of the ballpark with some of his comments on the historical aspects of Valentine's Day. I urge you to click over and read him.

The graf that caught my eye and still has me laughing was this: "And, still, we don't know how Valentine became the patron saint of lovers other than how his feast day just happens (as so many Christian festivals do) to fall on the naughty, virgin-harassing, wolf-howling, ring-a-ding-ding, goat-dancing, wine-swilling Roman festival of Lupercalia."

I can only wish you a Valentine's Day that is half as exciting as that. Just remember that thing about goats though, will you?
