Melanie has the Valentine’s Day questions, I have the Valentine’s Day GIF’s…
Which traditional Valentine’s Day gift would you rather receive: chocolates, flowers, or a card with a personal message? What, are you nuts? CHOCOLATE!!!
Do you like romantic movies? Yeah, you know what? I do. Two from my favorite romantic movie…
He always said she was his favorite…
Is Valentine’s Day only about romantic love? Or is it a good occasion to celebrate friendship as well? There are many kinds of love, romantic being only one of them. No reason you can’t celebrate all of them on February 14, or for that matter any day of the year.
How do you deal with unwanted romantic attention? Gently. Not that it’s that big of an issue for me…

Ooohhh…thank you for showcasing these 2 dancing greats! Most people think of Rita Hayworth as glamourous, which she was and from Gilda but forget what an accomplished dancer she was. They really danced divinely together-so seamlessly. I will go for this type of romantic movie any time above the Hallmark ones that someone throws up every day or that dreck, “Love Story.”
I love chocolates but I am not supposed to have any and am on a diet. Regardless, I love a beautiful card but also flowers.
I think, like you, love is for any type of love and remember giving my parents cards but also friends too. They mean a lot.
Unwanted attention? When I was a teen and even in my 20s, I never truly received any unwanted attention. In fact, I was the last girl hit on and not sure why because I don’t think I look like Shemp but that’s how it was.
Happy Valentine’s Day for today.

Rita Hayworth was also a fine singer, but they dubbed her voice, for some reason.
Happy Valentine’s Day, belatedly. Today would have been Dad’s 90th birthday…

Thank you John for Sharing Your World and several big chuckles along with it!😂 Those GIFs were exactly what was needed I think ! Wonderful! I enjoy the old romantic movies too, and Fred Astaire had amazing moves. Rita was so graceful! We’ve truly lost something of the magic of Hollywood, the ‘movies’ these days seem to be routinely violent, crude and poorly edited. So thank you very much indeed for sharing those two awesome clips! Ah the yesteryear… 💞 I’m sure you and Mary had a great day yesterday, because you have such a beautiful relationship! Have a wonderful week Sir John.

It’s like I told Eugi, they don’t know how to write a story anymore. We haven’t been to a movie in at least ten years, because there’s nothing worth seeing. I’m not going to pay the prices they want for inferior product.

I liked romantic old movies, as well. The new ones don’t cut it, IMO! Bring on the chocolate!

Chocolate is a huge endorphin rush for me.
The old movies knew that the secret was to tell a story, and knew how to inject humor and drama into it. The tendency now is to inject CGI and a lot of tonsil hockey, and neither is telling a story.

I agree! I had to look up CGI! Got it.

The old ones had class, especially the musical ones. The quality has really gone down since The Hallmark Channel debuted…
