Valentine
Little Melissa comes home from first grade and tells her father that they<br>learned about the history of Valentines Day. "Since Valentines Day is for a<br>Christian saint and we're Jewish," she asks, " will God get mad at me for<br>giving someone a valentine?"<br> Melissa's father thinks a bit, and then says, " No, I don't think God would<br>get mad. Who do you want to give a valentine to?"<br> "Osama Bin Laden," she says.<br> "Why Osama Bin Laden?" her father asks.<br> "Well," she says, "I thought that if a little American Jewish girl could<br>have enough love to give Osama a valentine, he might start to think that maybe<br>we're not all bad, and maybe start loving people a little bit.<br> And if other kids saw what I did and sent valentines to Osama, he'd love<br>everyone a lot. And then he'd start going all over the place telling everyone<br>how much he loved them and how he didn't hate anyone anymore."<br> Her father's heart swells and he looks at his daughter with new found<br>pride. "Melissa, that's the most wonderful thing I have ever heard."<br> "I know," Melissa says, " and once that gets him out in the open, the<br>Marines could blow the excrement out of him."<br>
