Happy Valentine's Day! In reading up on some of the history, it's odd how the commemoration of certain Christian martyrs ended up being a lovey-dubby holiday.
Speaking of Feb. 14, I'm reminded of Some Like It Hot, a good movie about a couple guys who end up cross-dressing in hiding after witnessing the 1929 St. Valentine's Day massacre in Chicago. I suppose it's thought of as a Marilyn Monroe flick (or her image is used to sell it, anyway), but I enjoyed Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis's performances more.
And, you may have noticed that I've been utilizing information like this more lately.
