Good morning and Happy Valentine’s Day, Washington. Whether you’re celebrating eternal love or ready to fully embrace loneliness, here’s a couple of last-minute ideas for your evening tonight — we’ll have a couple more come this afternoon. And while we’re dedicating some space to ooey-gooey lurve this morning, here’s an interesting piece of flimflam which might make for some date night conversational pablum: a guy from Ashley Madison — the internet business which people use to organize and facilitate extramarital affairs — says that D.C. a) really likes to cheat and b) said cheating is the main reason Washington maintains an incredibly low divorce rate. What better way to bond with your honey or enjoy being single than by poking holes in such sloppy conclusions!

One Killed After Brookland Robbery Attempt: D.C. police shot and killed one of three burglary suspects last night after the group opened fire while attempting to flee a home on the 1000 block of Irving Street NE in Brookland. In addition to the suspect that was killed, another was injured and the third was taken into custody. Police are still investigating whether the group is connected to other burglaries in the neighborhood.

D.C. Strikes Out At The Grammys: So Chuck Brown, Carolyn Malachi and Raheem DeVaughn all came up empty at the music industry’s celebration of weird egg costumes and Canadian ensemble rock last night. But on the bright side, given the Academy’s recently relaxed entrance qualifications, the number of local acts who might win a golden polyphone statue could be on the rise in coming years.

Briefly Noted: Ward 4 ANC Commish argues Walmart shouldn’t be constructed because it would increase shoplifting…Two killed in Prince George’s County in county’s first February homicides…Amtrak train catches fire in NE yard on Friday night….Americans need transportation — but they don’t want to pay for it…Maryland same-sex marriage advocates to rally in front of state House today.

This Day in DCist: Last year, we hosted a debate about shoveling and who should be responsible for clearing the way around fire hydrants and Metro stations; in 2008, an unannounced taxicab strike caused a bit of a stir downtown.
