WAIT! Before I lose the guys because you've tuned out the topic, or worse yet passed out from a panic attack this is all about HELP for Valentine's Day.

To be fair it does seem women usually benefit more from this holiday, but we will be hooking up the guys for Manly-tines Day this year...complete info coming soon! Obviously I can't win those prizes though- SO in the meantime, give me some gift-giving ideas!

Men, what are some of the coolest gifts you've ever received? (PG answers please my dears LOL!) Do you like "stuff" like electronics or "outings" like game or concert tickets?

And girls, how about some good gift ideas for you too- to help the guys out? (PG answers from you too, I KNOW how creative we can be LOL!)

No, for once I'm not asking because I'm tired of the extreme cold we've been dealing with and yearning for warmer weather.

I saw Gregg Allman play at The National not even a week ago, and the wait for his new album to be released is going to be very long. I'm already jonesing to hear the new stuff he played again, and the album is supposed to hit shelves sometime in April.

So, until then I guess I'll deal by picking up something from Scrapomatic, the band that opened that night. They were amazing, a trio of musicians picking the blues and placing me at one of those bonfire parties where talented friends pick up some instruments for an impromptu jam session.

Check them out for yourself here... since friends this talented can be hard to come by, and no matter how big the bonfire it's probably too cold to party outside right now anyway.

Alright so maybe I was asking not only because of a forthcoming release, but also because I'm tired of the cold and looking forward to warmer weather...
