    In common with Mr and Mrs Dave, Mrs C. and I celebrated 36 years of marriage this month - a testament to Mrs C's qualities of forbearance.


    20 years ... How is the old china?


    Warmest congratulations. Here's to the next 20, but in the interim, please remember to keep posting at the Cafe!

  • I'm now told that "hiking the Appalachian" is a euphemism for cheating on your spouse.

  • LOL, congrats! ;-)

  • I wish to hell mine were.

  • MnM

    Congrats, Russ. I hope you two are doing something special today (you know, other than you blogging and her reading your posts ;-)

    Haha. Man! From a libertarian or conservative standpoint, this whole thing sucks. I would have loved to hear his limited government messages on the 2012 campaign trail. There's always Ron Paul, though.


    Sanford's an idiot.

  • Jeremy P

    I wanted Sanford for 2012, even though he is a moron. Oh well.

  • DAVE

    Congrats.

  • Congratulations! 6/21/09 was the 36th for my wife and I. The next 16 should be even better --yes,if you stay away from South American countries.

  • Congratulations, Russ!


    My wife and I celebrated our 19th in May.

  • Congratulations, Russ.


    So were are you taking your wife? At least out to dinner, I hope.

  • JOP

    Congrats Russ.

  • VH

    Twenty years?! Congratulations!

  • MnM

    Of course, I can't make a relationship last twenty minutes.


    Maybe it's because I spend so much time reading Cafe Hayek...


    :D

  • Russ,


    I and my wife of 725 days congratulate you, and wish you many more years together. You're an inspiration to us young married folk.


    Regards,

  • Congrats. Good to hear for a guy who's at his -1 month wedding anniversary.

  • Michael H

    Congrats.

  • hehe. Congratulations, Russ.

  • Congratulations!


    I imagine you'd be just as happy if you were *both* in Argentina *together*. Basically, XNOR.

  • BoscoH

    Congrats Russ! Perhaps you should interview her for EconTalk?

  • MWG

    You've been married 20 YEARS!?!?!?


    I always say that to people who have been married longer than I have. I've been married for 2.


    Congratz!

  • S Andrews

    Congratulations. We celebrated our tenth anniversary recently.

  • LowcountryJoe

    Congratulations! Is she interested in being a host of an upcoming EconTalk where she interviews you and the microeconomics of your relationship? I'm interested in what you signaled to her...er...got her for an anniversary gift; how much she added in the writing of The Invisible Heart; and other stuff that we'd like to hang over your head...er...know about you aside from what you've already revealed.

  • Congratulations! My wife and I celebrated 22 this year. Isn't marriage wonderful?

  • Manfred

    Professor Roberts,

    congratulations!


    Let me tell you, that I, as a native from Uruguay [right next to Argentina], I see nothing wrong that you AND your wife be, together, in Argentina...:-)


    As a matter of fact, the ski resort of Bariloche is incredibly beautiful.


    Manfred

  • God bless and keep you for the next twenty.


    And go ahead and travel if that suits you.


    Together.

  • Adam

    Our first anniversary is Monday... I hope we make it to 20 and beyond!


    Congratulations! :)

  • Peter Bickford

    Congrats and best wishes to you both!

  • Congrats Mr. Roberts!

  • Congratulations and blessings to you both. Absolutely best post of the day.
