My grandparents, Ruth and Don, recently celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary, and my sister's fiance (who has performed at Yuk Yuk's) got up to say a few things. He was saying that Don had to put up with almost 50 years of trying to figure out what time of the month it was - women have so many different names for it (most are already listed above). But the funniest part was when he said:

"I'm sure after six kids, Ruth just called it 'the blessing'."
