Candy.

Roses.

Candlelit dinners.

Romance is for suckers, you say?

Most Americans will be celebrating Valentine’s Day this year with the usual chocolates, teddy bears and romantic dinners, but some will be going to great lengths to get away from their lovers.

One man not keen on spending the evening of February 14 with his mistress has arranged to have a bogus veterinarian place an emergency call to inform him that his pet is ill and needs tender loving care. Another will have a fake public works officer call about some urgent pipe repair at his home.

The two have turned to Alibi Network, an Illinois-based company that specializes in covering the tracks of its wayward customers.
