BTW, the Thursday Threesome gang at the Other Side of Glen Road refer to Valentine's Day as a "Hallmark Holiday." Under that definition all holidays are "Hallmark Holidays." A real Hallmark Holiday is a day that has been created specifically by Hallmark for the sending of greeting cards and remembrances, like "Sweetheart's Day" and "Grandparents' Day" and "Boss's Day" and "Secretaries Day" (now "Office Assistant Day," I believe). Good old St. Valentine and the practice of sending cards has been around much longer than Joyce Hall and his little Kansas City stationery shop.
