The Newseum in Washington, DC

Dear Imaginary Friends,

There is a unique museum in Washington, DC, that has no connection to the more famous Smithsonian: The Newseum.

Did I just hear you say, prove it?
Well, OK. How about the above twisted antennae tower from the top of the 110- story- World Trade Tower, of the infamous 9/11?

Not something one sees everywhere.

Or how about the equally infamous Watergate door?

The night watchman was making his rounds and noticed that the door lock was taped open. Afterwards, he investigated further and found evidence of the burglary from the National Democratic Headquarters in the Watergate building. This was the undoing of president Richard Nixon.

If you look down at the bottom of the door, you will see the headline, "Nixon Resigns."

This huge seven-story museum is an amalgamation of history, pop culture, and journalism. It also has an excellent cafeteria run by the Wolfgang Puck group.

The Newseum contains the late Tim Russerts' office, and the TV studio where George Stephanaoplous tapes his Sunday news show, weekly.

You really should visit the Newseum on Pennsylvania Avenue. It has a treasure trove of objects: Guttenberg's bible- a real page; the newspapers in which the bill of rights were first published, et al.

Amazing.

Your Imaginary Friend,

Patsie
