Early Valentine's Day (joke of the day)

Little Melissa comes home from first grade and tells her father that they
learned about the history of Valentine's Day.

'Since Valentine's Day is for a Christian saint and we're Jewish,' sheasks,
'will God get mad at me for giving someone a valentine?'

Melissa's father thinks a bit, then says 'No, I don't think God wouldget
mad. Who do you want to give a Valentine to?'

'Osama Bin Laden,' she says.

'Why Osama Bin Laden,' her father asks in shock.

'Well,' she says, 'I thought that if a little American Jewish girl could
have enough love to give Osama a Valentine, he might start to think that
maybe we're not all bad, and maybe start loving people a little bit.

And if other kids saw what I did and sent Valentines to Osama, he'dlove
everyone a lot. And then he'd start going all over the place totell everyone
how much he loved them and how he didn't hate anyoneanymore.'

Her father's heart swells and he looks at his daughter with new found pride.

'Melissa, that's the most wonderful thing I've ever heard.'

'I know,' Melissa says, 'and once that gets him out in the open, theMarines
could shoot the fucker.'
