Being in DC for the inauguration
I don't have much hopes that I'll be able to get tickets, but are there giant screens set up around DC so that large crowds can still watch it?

of King George the shrub. I don't recall any jumbo trons but then again I don't think most of the people on the streets WANTED to see Bush II. We were more interested in shouting him down and demonstrating our displeasure at his appointment.

I suspect it will be much different this time around. I wish I had the money to fly out to DC for Obama's inauguration. It will be celebratory. I hope it's a nicer day THIS Jan 20 than it was on 1/20/01. It was rainy and very cold.
