After being frozen in a cringe for an hour and a half listening to Sara Palin’s monotonous rhetoric and ”not answer the questions that either the moderator or you want to hear” last night, we thought you might need something to thaw you out. There is a couple in North Carolina that have been married (drum roll please) …84 years! Some of us don’t even know people that have lived that long. When they took their vows in 1924, they really meant “till death do us part.” When you read their story, you’ll find that it wasn’t that difficult for them to stay together as they were a match made in heaven. They didn’t bother each other much at all. They have been inducted into the Guinness Book of Records, but at 103 and 100, neither even really notice the acknowledgement…it’s business as usual with them. Read here about their treasure trove of history and marriage.
