Almost Valentine’s Day

Jazz Stains, CJSW 90.9 FM, Feb 13 2009

I don’t hate valentine’s day, but I wish there was the equivalent for a guy, like “dude’s day” or “fella friday” or something because Vday is definitely for the ladies — anyone who says otherwise is spinning a web of white lies. That said, I love spoiling my lady — and she’s worth it!
