@WilliamShatner @JohnnyQuinnUSA If I can get my mitts on that fridge it will be an international celebration. After races of course.

Do you think if Sochi gave @JohnnyQuinnUSA the key to the city that his problems would be over? ;-)

Friday was Valentine’s Day so let’s just say there were a lot of shenanigans on Twitter. Faux Pelini wrote Valentine poems for a bunch of people so here are some of the highlights.
To Husker fans: Roses are red Violets are blue Sorry for that bad language Next time I'll say "screw."
— Fake Bo Pelini (@FauxPelini) February 14, 2014

To Bo Pelini: Roses are red Violets are blue The cat's litterbox is full And I'm leaving this job for you. @BoPelini
— Fake Bo Pelini (@FauxPelini) February 14, 2014
To my critics: Roses are red Violets are blue If you think I should grow up THEN YOU'RE A BIG BAG OF POO
— Fake Bo Pelini (@FauxPelini) February 14, 2014
To Jack Hoffman: Roses are red Violets are blue It's nice that you're grateful But really we should be thanking you. @TeamJack
