It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I would think the Omaha Steaks thing would be good. If you're needing quality, I know it's viciously expensive, but a gift from Zingermans.com= always good.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
ION, one of my bosses claims that 'Stephen' is pronounced the same as 'Steven.' MY other boss and I say 'Stephen' is pronounced 'Stefen.'

I've never heard of pronouncing Stephen as 'Stefen'. Stephan, I can see, but not Stephen.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Every Stephen I've ever known has pronounced it Steven. [insert obligatory Colbert mention here]

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

"Stephen" is pronounced however the name-holder chooses. It's like Megan that way. If pronounciation is unknown, I'd choose "Steven" as the best bet.

Jessica is right.
ION, on Halloween when I had some kind of fluish-type cancer and was walking through the Halloween parade crowds to get home I walked past someone who looked like John Krasinski from The Office, but was way too tall; was in New York; and was in the same area as like 2 million people in the neighborhood for the parade. I figured, that guy managed to make a John Krasinski costume so good it fooled my flu-addled eyes. But my officemate today was telling me that he saw Krasinski in SoHo the other day, and he's like freakishly tall. So I had a John Krasinski from The Office sighting the other day!
