Default Loss of Independence Day!
40 years ago today, I married my child bride. So, I officially lost my independence...

We were married in Washington, DC, at the Omni Shoreham Hotel, and in the middle of our reception, we were treated to a $ 1/2 mill fireworks display, courtesy of the Federal Government! Guaranteed fireworks on my wedding night!

Here's to 40 more!

We were both quite young by today's standards. I was 24, she was 23... Quite legal, so you can calm down...

Congratulations! 40 years more is doable but only with the active lifestyle of TV!

Keep moving!
