We're too superstitious to post a thing until the deed is done. Until then, thank you to our friends & readers --especially those abroad (this means you, too, Anita!) for your good wishes & hopes for our President-elect & America. It means a lot -- it's been a long haul.
The Boss has come a long way from playing free concerts at American U. Go Bruce! (Doesn't Pete Seeger look snappy in his arancia-colored jacket & cool cap?) See Bono's close-cropped head--hey, put on a hat, silly! Other folks are so (wisely) bundled up that it's not easy to tell identity. We can't find Stevie in the shots but he will be there today: signed, sealed, delivered:)
ciao-meow & go Steelers!

Would you like to work for the new Administration? GG would love for you to come to DC (of course, there will be jobs across the country). Even if you're not interested in that, please visit Change.gov, President-elect Barack Obama's Transition Office website. You can write your story on it, you can apply for jobs, you can follow the transition process. This is the changeover from mybarackobama.com. Photo of Lincoln's 1861 Inaugural...very cool Library of Congress collection.

The Presidential Inaugural Committee is doing an amazing job. Some photographs of yesterday's rehearsal for today's We Are One concert at the Lincoln Memorial. Go here for the flickr set. If you don't have HBO, watch online if you have a good connection. If not, WAMU-FM & other NPR stations will broadcast live, online, & regular ol' radios. It's too cold for GG & her editor, so we'll be listening at home.
...and shades of gray. A week to go. The photograph [uncredited] is via Vintage Holiday Crafts & Clip Art - link to 2009 Inauguration Day Clip Art and Resources for Writers. Looks lonely.
A welcome, cheerful piece from Michael Cuffe's The Obama Experiment. Here's a video of Michael recreating the painting. Thanks, Michael! We need this because there are some sore losers out there. Wow. Can't you wait one day to start your whining & carrying on? It is so unbecoming.
