what are joanne woodward's credentials of cool? or newman's for that matter?

I'd be less critical if I were you. You think Yoko is cool.

David Bowie and Mick Jagger

"I never have more than one drink before dinner. But I do like that one to be large and very strong and very cold and very well-made. I hate small portions of anything, particularly when they taste bad. This drink's my own invention. I'm going to patent it when I can think of a good name."

you people are stupid, aren't you?

1) beautiful/famous does not = cool
2) both parties must carry a substantial share of the cool

so only mongo and mrs. jones qualify?

Certainly, at one point years ago, Dylan and Baez were as cool as you could possibly get.
Likewise, Astrud and Joao Gilberto.
Some might say Louis Prima and Keely Smith.

I thought Baez majorly de-cooled Dylan.
