Re: Harry and Mrs. Truman: there’s a great story in Harry Truman’s biography about how he had to leave town alone (as President) for several weeks; when he came back, he and the Missus broke the bed getting “reacquainted” LOL.

Mrs. Truman was very embarassed when she reported the damaged furniture to the White House staff. :0)

I remember that story, as well, from David McCullough's biography of Truman.

They had a real love story.
