According to fliers that were being passed around during last night’s “dancing in the streets” celebration, there’s going to be an Obama victory parade tonight at 6 pm, starting at the corner of Pine and Melrose.
Inauguration Day is going to be a nationwide party the likes of which we have never seen. Downtown last night was nothing compared to what DC will look like on Jan 20th. A city wide party. I can't wait.
I'm seeing an uptick in pedestrian activity, but still no critical mass. Perhaps they came and went a big early or started just around the corner where I couldn't see?
F. Fail! I was going to give a D-, but one of the maybe 20-30 people there was distracting diners at Machiavelli with his sign up against the window.
Save your energies for inauguration day. This isn't the "moment," it's stretching the street party too long. The real party is in our heads and hearts.

I'll be there!
He's not president yet, How about at his Inauguration?
King 5 is sending a reporter there.
The horror! The horror!
I'm there.
I hope they play Journey so that joykiller's head explodes.

I might be going, or I might not. I will let you all know when the time is right.
It's 6. I'm not seeing much from my window. :/

OK, definitely a small crowd gathering outside Bauhaus.
Nobody here. Fail.
The small crowd doesn't seem to be nearly large enough to compete with rush hour traffic...
I'm going to circle the block to get a better sense than "pass/fail" grading...

I can't stop laughing.
Stop pissing on the campfire, Sloggers. It was a small but very fun group, think Merry Pranksters (look it up, kids). Photos coming soon...
Personally, I just didn't have it in me to do round two after the festivities Tuesday Night.
