- nothing is known of Saint Valentine except that he was buried on the Via Flaminia on February 14
- a Medieval legend says he would not convert to paganism and so was executed ... but before then he restored the sight of the jailers daughter to say "no hard feelings"
- a later addition to the legend said Valentine was a priest that performed marriages for young couples, thereby keeping them out of the Roman army
- finally Hallmark cards started to say that before he was executed, Valentine sent the first greeting card (with bar code) to the girl of the jailer
I think the truth is more in line with the video below:
