A Necessary Evil: Deal With It

Well gentlemen, it is that time of year, where we get our own special day to screw things up, as if there already aren't enough of those days.  I tend to not have much affection for this holiday, for various reasons.  First, it only gets more annoying with each passing year as I hear people call it "Valentime's Day."  Really?  ValenTIMES?  Secondly, I am still convinced that this holiday was invented as a source of revenue for greeting card companies and their affiliates, not the sappy story of some Saint.  Lastly, does it really require a holiday for us to share our love with our spouses, shouldn't we be doing that all the time?  And just because we don't pull some romantic comedy crap on this day, it is a sign we don't love our spouses, regardless of everything else?  Well men, I am here to say, that no matter what you or your woman believe, it is good for you to do something, so here is a bit of advice.
