My wife is 8 years younger than her sister and 11 years younger than her
brother. Her father was 48 when she was born. Maybe her parents thought
that he was shooting blanks.

I used to work with a guy who split up with his wife when their
daughters were about high school age. I transferred out of that branch
but had to go back once in a while for vehicle repairs and always made a
point of chatting with Joe. He met up with a much younger woman and got
married. I was there with my partner one day and Joe told us that his
wife had just had a baby. Him asked him how old he was and Joe said 55.
