Actually, more than I expected----and I don't know why I had that expectation except the divorce rate is now more than fifty percent. When we left in May for our "summer vacation", our group of close friends had 3 couples with over 150 years of marriage and one with five at our dinner table. Yesterday my wife and I celebrated our 53rd! We were teenagers when we married----thanks for asking.
51 here. We were toddlers.

It's the new math.
