It's time for Cupid to retire.
When Cupid's arrow struck Romeo and Juliet Leading to three days of Romance, marriage, murder and sex What were the results? Suicide and death There must be a better way to find love. When Romeo discovers who Juliet is Minutes after meeting her, he says, "Is she a Capulet? O dear account! my life is my foe's debt." As for Juliet, "My only love sprung from my only hate! Too early seen unknown, and known too late! Prodigious birth of love it is to me, That I must love a loathed enemy." Let's put Cupid's arrows on ice Replacing him with Yenta the matchmaker From Fiddler on the Roof Reducing the divorce rate.

Lloyd, so glad to see you writing again, and raising a little hell.
You may be right about Cupid, but, hell, nobody have said that love
was easy. -gene.
