Happy Anniversary!
Well, before we go on with anything else here, we need to acknowledge the marriage, 56 years ago today, of Mr. and Mrs. Perils of Caffeine, Sr. Aren’t they gorgeous?
Can you imagine walking down that aisle in 1948? Even Eisenhower is 3 years away. Could you envision television, Sputnik, Apollo, Johnny Carson, Top Ramen, The Honeymooners on DVD? Could you envision your 54-year-old son looking at his Palm Pilot and suddenly remembering what day it was, and pulling together his electronic tools to make this flashy but still still tardy apology?
Congratulations, Mom & Dad, for weathering the Eisenhower 50s, the Kennedy/Johnson 60s, the Nixon/Carter 70s, the Reagan 80s, the Clinton 90s and the W Bush 2000s. Hope you’re around for a few more regime changes. Hope you don’t have to wait more than 7 weeks!
