My best (platonic) male friend ever in this world, an Irish-born, expat resident of Washington DC since 2006, takes all of his visitors from Europe to the
NATIONAL PORTRAIT GALLERY.
He says it is his favorite museum in Washington, and it is not hard to see why.
With Valentine's Day fast approaching, the museum staff have come up with what promises to be a fun, interactive, after-work program on February 14 for both singles and besotted lovers alike ...

(I've never cared much for V-Day myself - too much pressure on bewildered guys, too much disappointment from frustrated girls. WHO thought of creating this "holiday" in the first place? Hallmark? It seemed fun though, in grade school, when we exchanged those little cards you simply signed "To" and "From" with such gleeful, giggly innocence. It was like a big 'ol Kinderlovefest - almost ANYBODY could "Be" your "Valentine" back then! It gets a little trickier, however, when we grow up.)
