Double digits! Sadly, that's a rarity today. Congrats on sticking it out, no doubt you two have had to deal with some crap in those 10 years. Many people throw in the towel at the first sign of trouble.
Here's to 10 more years (raising a cheap, plastic water bottle).

I thought you were going to say, "Maserati Biturbo depreciation cycles reached an all-time low."

Congratulations!

I'm sure the reason it's worked so well is because you are such a crazy romantic!

You appear to cater to a woman's every need.

Somehow the first bit of your second sentence got lost when you posted. I restored it for you.

Congratulations!

congrats!! whats the 10 year gift? A convertible GTO? Or is that 20 years? Wait, I know, 10 years is a new torque wrench. Im sure she will love it. I'd go snap on...you dont want her getting shown up carrying in a Companion brand tick stick when she goes to work and the other girls have Matco or something

10 years ago I was celebrating my 21st b-day at a bar Id been drinking at for about 2 years

I get the vibe from alot of my friends that are my age, maybe a bit younger that they say the mistakes of there parents and go into marriage more seriously than many of those from years past. I hope so.

I love that song! First heard it when I was young as a nick cave fan, I love every version/cover of it!

And I first thought of the song as well when I saw the thread title...

I've got ( I think) 6 different versions of it... Lefty , EmmyLou, Johnny Cash, Bill Monroe, Kingston Trio, and a local (now defunct ) bluegrass band... there may actually be more hidden away in all my junk...
