"A prosthetic leg currently showcased in England at the National Centre for Craft and Design, was donated by a war veteran who fell in love with his physical therapist.
A note says it lasted longer than the relationship because it was made of sturdier material.' "
I read this article from from Huff Post this morning, "Museum Of Broken Relationships: Croatian Museum Showcases Post-Split Mementos" and I had to think, it being being Valentine's Day and all, that those folks not fond of the Hallmark created holiday would appreciate this little gem!
It is a novel idea, creating a museum showcasing, among other things, a garden gnome thrown at a husband...an axe smashing through furniture!
The museum says it's number of visitors on Valentine's Day almost double! Could be the broken-hearted or the Valentine-haters who would prefer to celebrate breaking up over googly-eyed sappy love stuff, or simply the curious among us.
I personally don't have a problem with the heart-shaped holiday, and I was even inspired to draw a heart on a piece of paper for Poseidon, taping it to the bathroom mirror. He appreciated the sentiment. So, whether you are pro or anti-Valentine's Day, this article is entertaining either way. Enjoy.
