Congrats Al and Tipper Gore

today the former vice president and his wife announced that they are separating and splitting up...they said there was no affair but that they had grown apart....so after being together for 40 years they just decided they have separate lives and they are now going to live them...wow

not that i think they are poster children for a perfect marriage but, she lived through his claiming to have started the internet and he lived through all her work promoting albums by adding warning lables and helping boost sales.

i don't know  but , don't you think you would have split up sooner rather than later???  they both in their sixties...how much life do they actually have left?  this couldn't have just happened...familiarity and complacency can breed long, boring marriages and without some balls you could just stay together forever...i guess i should say congrats for growing a pair or two depending on who actually left who but, how long was it going south and how far apart do you actually have to get before walking back just gets too hard or way too long of a proposition...i say do your duty to your kids, if necessary and cut your loses while you are still young enough to have some fun...
