Well my wife finally has her retirement date set, April 7, 2017.
Guess we'll see how long our marriage lasts shortly thereafter.

32nd anniversary is in 8 days.

I'm the proud poster of number 23,456

Another near milestone, closing in on a million views.
It's mind boggling to think of all the enlightenment this thread has given to the masses.

Thank you Jean!
My first marriage lasted 15 years, seemed like an eternity, these 32 have flown by.
Maybe I should have stayed married to the first?
Nah, one of us would no longer be alive.

Our 31st is in 7 days.
Neither of us is retired though, so we can still stay out of each other's' way about 10 hours a day.
