Mr. Speaker, occasionally, we go to remarkable events, and I did so last Saturday. A couple that had reached the age of 94 and 92 were celebrating not only the gentlelady's birthday but also their 70th year of marriage. When I told people where I had been, they said, ``You've got to be kidding. Seventy years?'' No, they were not married as teenagers, but they were married in their twenties. They happen to be my aunt and uncle, and I love those genes. So congratulations to Ann and Jack Murphy on Ann's 90th birthday and their 70th anniversary. ____________________
