Today My Parents Are Celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversary

On August 12th 1962, my parents got married. I'm glad they made that rational choice!   Since they are the only people who actually read this blog, I thought I would say a few things to them.   First, Mike, Kelly, Dora and I are very proud of them.  The West Coast side of the family went to NYC a few weeks ago and joined the East Coast Kahns for a great reunion.  Here is a late July 2012 photo of my favorite parents.  It is surprising that two such attractive people could have a son who is a clone of Quentin Tarantino.




Second, you don't have to be a demographer to recognize that 50 years is a long marriage!   While the parameter values are likely to have changed over time, I used this website  and found that they had a 22% chance of reaching this milestone.   You must admit that they look happy in this photo.   I am not a sentimental guy but even I recognize that this is a big day!   How are they celebrating?  Apparently, they are off in the woods somewhere in the greater NYC vicinity.
