What a romantic Valentine idea....NOT!

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. - Looking for a little something special for your valentine? How about a hissing cockroach? That's the suggestion from the folks at the Ross Park Zoo in Binghamton, N.Y.
The zoo is running a Valentine's Day adoption program called "Give Your Beauty a Beast."
For ten bucks, you can adopt a hissing cockroach for your sweetheart. The adoption includes a photo, cockroach fact sheet and a free pass for your special friend to visit the little hisser.
If a roach doesn't say "I love you," the zoo has some romantic alternatives. There's a bearded dragon, a black vulture and a bleeding heart dove.

I think that a real animal lover might like something like that. I wouldn't really mind it. I'd rather sponcer a cat at our Humane Society, though.

Sounds better then a bunch a roses that just die in a few days.
