2. The best layed plans of mice and men...
and all that.

Don't give it without the bow. That would be so insensitive, and we all know what a shy, sensitive creature you are. :D

5. Magic Marker to the rescue
Just get a magic marker and draw a great big bow on the car. The great part of a magic marker is that it's PERMANENT.
No need to thank me.

9. you could
just lay naked across the hood when she walks into the garage and have a few bows strategically placed on your body.

Do you think she will even notice you? :D

13. Yeah well...
I was going to take my wife to Europe and invite her whole family and surprise her by asking her to marry me....again.

But, I have never been married, so that blows that plan.

20. Just one word for you, buddy: JoAnn's Fabric and Craft Store...
Perhaps a few yards of red cotton?
You can get it cheap -- maybe even 99 cents a yard.

But then...

Slippers are soooo nice.
Opt for Ugs and... VI-O-LA... you're a HERO!
