TALK TO US

Which song makes your knees weak?

Isn't It Romantic? Valentine's Day is approaching and we want to know about Your Song. You know, the one that defines you as a couple; the one you danced to All Night Long when you got married, went on a date or were Making Whoopie.

If you've got a story behind your song, whether it be funny, sad or romantic, we want to know about.

Send your story to Valentine Song, The Augusta Chronicle, P.O. Box 1928, Augusta, GA 30903-1928 or e-mail erica. cline@augustachronicle.com. Please include your name, age, address and telephone number.

Entries will be accepted until Feb. 6.

Does your spouse yin when you want to yang? Does he or she clean while you clutter, vote red while you ballot blue, or embrace the steak when you are very veggie?

We're looking for true stories of opposites attracting, couples that, despite extreme differences in opinion or lifestyle, have found a way to make love work. Send your stories to: steven.uhles@augustachronicle.com or call (706) 823-3626. The deadline is Feb. 3.
