Love these old Reconnaissance Aircraft!

(Of course, you're going to want to make sure it has the Mercedes engine!)
 
Would I like them better if I PIFed you a $20?

Bingo Masters cannot be bribed..... oh and I forgot, I'm putting two of those numbers back if they are pulled...... so your odds just dropped to 4.15%!
 
I share similar opinions on Valentine's day. But I do make it a point to go all out on mother's day and our anniversary. But I usually will pick a couple random days and stop at Costco on the way home and grab some flowers for my wife.
 
Partially copied form my One Blade February entry:

So, tomorrow is valentines day, one of the worst holidays ever. I just don't see the point. I know there's actually some history behind it, but it has turned into a Halmark Holiday where you are just expected to shell out a bunch of money to show those that you love..... how much you love them. Dumb. You should be doing that all along.... not the spending money part, but showing them that you care. You don't need a day to designate affection. Anyway, I will not be doing anything special for it, but I will have a special shave for it. I have some controversial items in waiting, queued up for tomorrow that definitely fit the theme of the day. So stay tuned to tomorrow's VLOG for that.

Other than that, it's going to be a great Air Force Day. Hooah!

I sorta touched on this in my journal as well. I agree. My wife and I decided years ago that we weren't going to let retailers shame us into spending ridiculous amount of money just to keep up with the guy or girl next door. We feel the same way, that you should be expressing love and affection all throughout the year. As men, we shouldn't be idiots all year and expect that a dozen roses and some candy is going to make up for it.

We found that once we jumped off this retail/social pressure merry-go-round that we were free to do more meaningful things whenever we wanted to. Heck, taking the time to write a nice long love note to your special someone is way better than some sappy card. I try to do daily things that tell my wife I love her. Turn off the TV and talk to your spouse for 2 hours, it's what people used to do before TV's, IPads, smart phones, TV's in the bedroom, and computers.
 
Well my wife expects a diner out and some chocolate. I don't want to know what would happen if I didn't comply.
