"When your parents name you Aldo Valentine Zelnick because you were born on February 14th, you know you've got a boyhood of Valentine's misery ahead. But this year when my 11th birthday rolled around, I decided to pretend Valentine's Day didn't exist.

[4] of cover. Includes a gallery of words beginning with the letter I.
