The easiest way to have a conversation with someone is to talk about their favorite topic of conversation...Them!

Well over 50 years ago Dale Carnegie wrote that nothing sounds sweeter to someone than their own name. If you doubt we are all self-interested, think about this: The last time you looked at a group picture you were in, whose picture did you look for first? Yours, of course!.

My favorite conversation starter if talking to a couple is "How did you folks meet?"
