There was a punk song back in the day that referenced John Wayne Gacy. The band’s name is Los Reactos.

That is the music trivia for this week.

What does Gacy have to do with the Carters, other than both were topics of infamy during the 1970’s?

That’s worth celebrating. Having married in my 30s, I can only envy a number like that.

Regardless of politics, that is an admirable achievement worthy of high praise.

I wish them many more years together.

I don’t like Carter, at all, but I will gladly celebrate this accomplishment. My wife and I celebrated 40 years last weekend. The thing that really surprises me, for lack of a better description, is we are better “friends” now than when we got married. I am amazed at how much I enjoy being around her. When I say amazed, I am referencing the way I perceive the way most talk about their marriages.

Jimmy did a couple things right. And that’s about it.

The 1970s "lusted in my heart" is the 2016 "grab them by the pussy."

Both were fantasies that they thought about, but that Joe Biden actually did.

Dude, seriously. It’s bad enough that the Left keeps posting pics of Trump with Maxwell and claims he was in on the child-sex crap too. The Carters knew nothing about what Gacy was doing, proving that you can take your picture with anyone who’s going to be the next Charles Manson.

She always seemed like a sweetheart to me.

I don’t know what’s wrong with him.

Just goes to show that a faithful husband can still make for a lousy President.

SAY WHAT...

No media photo of them? I said he is in poor health maybe even close to the end..

Yes 74 years is a life time for many...but I'm amazed the media nor TV shows said nothing about this day for them?

VERY, VERY STRANGE, CONSIDERING HE WAS A FORMER POTUS....just smh.
