Actual News about Me and Becky!

Well I usually let all the good stories about whats going on with us go to Becky, as she usually is the one that takes the pictures and just plain beats me to the punch but not this time.

We already have our plans set for this weekend...we are going to go to the bathroom...together. Yep a public restroom too, specificaly the 2nd floor restroom of the National Portrait Gallery.

Yes it seems for a short 6 week window we can see a piece of work so honored, so treasured, that it had to be hung outside the hall of presidents...even if that means in the restrooms. This would be of course the legendary "Colbert Portrait". For the full story on the portrait and how it ended up there you can watch the videos below. The short version is that Stephan Colbert of Comedy Central's "Colbert Report" convinced the national portrait gallery to hang up his portrait that normally hangs above the show set's fireplace.

Becky and I are big fans of the Colbert Report and were a little bummed that they filmed a small series here in DC recently and we missed it! Oh well, the portrait will have to do. I wonder if there is a website that lists celebrity visits/Sighting in DC...
