Do you realize that if [Tuesday Weld](http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0001839/) married [Fredric March’s](http://us.imdb.com/find?s=all&q=Fredrick+March&x=0&y=0) son, she’d be Tuesday March The Second?

Shut up, you laughed.

Why would she be the second? For her to be the Second there would have to have been a person previously named ‘Tuesday March’ in her family. That’s how it works I think.

Baby, it a joke. I heard it 30 years ago on March 2nd, and laughed. I just wanted to share it.

Had actress Kaye Ballard married astronaut Wally Schirra, divorced him, and then married someone with the same surname, she’d have been Kaye Shirra-Shirra.
