"Newlywed Game" Comes to Rockport 35 RV Park

Last evening, we celebrated Valentine's Day by an episode of Rick Carlson's Newlywed Game.

Rick was out of his fishing regalia and all spiffed up in a sport coat and tie! And a great job he did! Given the contestants, which were selected by lot, it's a good thing the MC was quick of mind and could keep up with them!

Couples selected were Bob and Kathy, Pam and Geof, Marv and Bev, and Dennis and Brenda.

We who know Marv appreciate his dry sense of humor and he didn't let us down last night. His answer to the question "If you could spend a day with anyone, living or dead, who would it be?" Without hesitation, Marv answered, "Dianne!" (Dianne being Rick's wife and across-the-street neighbor of Bev and Marv.)

That brought the house down and necessitated some quick thinking on the part of Rick!

But the show must go on, and so it did.

After both halves, there was a deadlocked score between Bev/Marv and Brenda/Dennis. The latter won with the best answer to a tie-breaker question: How many windows in your house?

Carol, with help from Dorothy, masterminded the program. Based on the applause, they did a great job as everyone enjoyed the evening.

It's entirely possible that Dianne will also publish an article. Hers will no doubt be quite different from this one but entirely appropriate as the program itself brought to light the man/woman differences in memory and perception. I hope you will recognize that the two articles are referring to the same event!
