Ah, Valentine’s Day. Lots of chocolate, cards and candy hearts. That is, if you have a Valentine. No one for me this year. No matter. I don’t have the time.

Did you know that the blue whale, the largest animal on our planet, has a heart the size of a Volkswagen Beetle. Can you believe that?! The aorta is large enough for a man to crawl through. The heart is so big, it pumps 10 tons of blood.

Yep, I'm alone this year. Truthfully, I even forgot it was Valentine's Day till Andrew (my boss) asked me to inspect the bouquet of flowers he was sending to his wife online.
