Seasonal Singleton Snarf

Ah, it's that time of year again, when the entertainment and commercial space is slathered with so much pink it looks like a surgical procedure and most forums are full of huggy blether.  Not that I begrudge it, not really: I am a genuinely happy confirmed bachelor.  But my play-along primate genes sulk even so.  Solution: lots of Olympic sport and old classic horror movies.

Everyone loves a mashup so here's the rose-crowned skull of St Valentine himself, patron saint of restaurateurs and florists and card-printers, from the Basilica of Santa Maria in Cosmedin, in Rome.  Watch out.  Love bites!
