I don’t really have anything to add to that. My wife and I have been married 19 years today. She was 17 and I was 20 when we got married. HA HA to hers and my parents who didn’t think it would last! E3 ---

Isn’t that the best revenge on those naysayers? On my anniversary they all denied that they had any lack of confidence at all, but I wonder who won the pool. Congratulations on your accomplishment! Keep proving the jerks wrong. ---

Congratulations and best wishes to both of you! Also nineteen (so far) for Mrs. Shodan and me, but we are both a good bit further into our golden years than you two. It took me a while to find her. Regards, Shodan ---

Man, I feel for you. Some days I spend with the missus seem AT LEAST 19 years long! And the day is yet young. What? That isn’t what you meant by saying you were married 19 years today? Oh well. In that case, congratulations. And allow me to be the first to add, you get less than 19 years for murder!
