interesting valentine



My sister "Momhe" gave me this very unusual tin full of chocolate shaped cars. *EDIT* that should read "car shaped chocolates" * It's just the silliest thing ever, don't you think? Who would give someone a Bill Elliott NASCAR valentine? I've been wondering about this. Would a man give this to a woman? A woman to a man?

My mom came up with the answer, I suppose because she thinks like a mom- it's for a young boy! It never occured to me. I grew up in a house full of sisters and every Valentine's Day we would wake up and get candy from our dad. (we knew, though, that it was always our mom who bought it) Sons need candy, too! And what better way to say, "you're a special little man" than a decorative tin featuring one of the coolest drivers around.

I don't really know anything about nascar, but I am guessing this guy is like the most popular dude that all the guys want to be like and all of the girls love.

I'd have to say that is one of the two strangest NASCAR items I've ever seen. There's this rug that I see at Wal-Mart all of the time. And they must not be very popular because the pile never gets any lower. It's a rug, about 4' x 1' 6", shaped like a car. I don't remember the number but it is the Viagra car. Now... who would need a Viagra car rug, and more importantly, where would they put it? In the front hall? Next to the bed?
