Couples Conversation
Posted February 12th, 2006 by RD Heldenfels
In case you missed it, I have a column in today's Beacon Journal about how we view celebrity couples — and whether we should take romantic inspiration from them. You can find the piece here.
The lists with it — couples that make you go awwww, couples that make you go ewww, and other topics — were compiled with a lot of help from the people in my office. We did so knowing that there were probably some couples — and views of them — that we left out. So here's a place you can add your thoughts. Just use the comment section below. And thanks in advance for your participation.
The bride and I went to the Cavs game last night, and I expect to post some thoughts later today about the way television has influenced what we see at live events. And, of course, I'll have more on the Olympics. I recorded a bunch last night and will be watching some today. I'm intrigued by what the Michelle Kwan story will do to coverage; does this mean still MORE Bode Miller, or does Emily Hughes become a big topic?
And, since I talked about sports and reality TV in an earlier post, here's a comment NBC passed along from Scott Hamilton: "This is drama. The Olympics is the ultimate reality show."

I have one more unlikely couple to add to the list, Mel Brooks and Anne Bancroft. I still remember how surprised I was when I heard that they were married.
