Married 85 years (Christ, that's a long time)....

Herbert and Zelmyra Fisher of New Bern, N.C., hold the world record for life in wedded bliss: 85 years. He's 104, and she's 101.



On their May 13 anniversary, they will join an elite club: the longest marriages on record. One couple got a big head start on their marriage. You must go back more than 200 years to find the other couple married 86 years.
A Fisher time line: Around their 10th anniversary, this everyday household appliance hit the carpet. When they celebrated their 25th anniversary, this song was a hit ( watch videos ). When they marked their 50th, this irritating icon was everywhere ( see pictures, if you must ). By the time they reached their 75th year of marriage, we were hooked on this reality show .
The Fishers dabbled in social media by tweeting their secrets to a long, happy marriage for Valentine's Day last month.
Zelmyra Fisher still gets around with a walker, and Herbert loves to watch this on TV . They credit their marital success to faith in God, a loving family and few big fusses over their long marriage.
Wondering about other wedding records? Not that we're keeping count, but two French nursing home residents tied the knot at a ripe age . Too bad things didn't go that well for Ida and Simon Stern.
And while the Fishers have weathered good times and bad, Linda Essex and "Scotty" Wolfe went in a different direction .
Words of wisdom? These centenarians offer video advice for a long life.
If you're still seeking a formula for a good marriage, try these .
But when you get right down to it, former record-holder Percy Arrowsmith knew the key to wedded bliss boiled down to two words .



Yes ,Dear.

So after reading that, I had to find out what signs they are for shits and giggles.
