Saint of Epilepsy and the plague...

OnionSoup thought this was worth mentioning said Thu, Feb 14th 2019 at 7:17pm ET

St Vallie’s day coming to an end, but I’ll share a few facts I learnt.

America spends $700 million a year on presents for pets for Valentine’s day.

15% of women have bought themselves flowers on Valentine’s day.

St. Valentine is also the patron saint of people with epilepsy and the plague.

Feb 14 is also national Ferris Wheel day

- @eonfifty I want a kitty hamster wheel… Although my cats are so lazy they would never use it.

- @OnionSoup They tricked the cats to go on it with a laser pointer. You can see it turn on and remain on the left side just above their heads while running.

There are actually several Saint Valentines, though the one associated with Feb 14 is Valentine of Rome, I think.
