Two great things that go great together

By Scott Dagostino • June 23, 2009 10:54 pm EDT

It’s not just about chocolate & peanut butter anymore! Examples include:

Sidney Crosby & the Stanley Cup:

The gay marriage debate & the wonder of flowcharts!

Dan Savage & righteous indignation

Dolce & Gabbana (already a great pair) & the wild west:

Pierre Fitch & photographer Joe Oppedisano:

Cher & Christina Aguilera in a musical

Creatures of the night &…umm…creatures of the night:

Pride celebrations & friendly Liberals (no, they do NOT automatically go together!)

Pride celebrations & comic books

Pride celebrations & Fredericton!

There’s a lot to celebrate this month — go make a great new pairing of your own!
