christina · January 2009

Watching it from the comfort of my office chair. Or the "theater" we have at work, providing I can sneak away.

I'm in DC working...met the most fabulous man---and he invited me to the Midwestern Ball. You can't make this stuff up!

Somebody with a good size apartment , patient neighbors , and a tv bigger than 30 inches should have an Inauguration/Dubya Bush is gone partay.

is that an offer?

Lets see... Gates at Defense. Geithner at Treasury. Troops remain in Iraq. Sec of State who voted for Iraq. No Gitmo close in the near future. A "bailout" that relies heavily on tax cuts.

Hope and change, huh? Looks like Bush III to me.

Well , all I got is two 25 or 27 inch flat screens. The nice one is in my bedroom , for my video games more than anything. So , if I could have people over no one is allowed to touch that tv. Ya'll sit your ass's in the main room. Only game lovers can go sit in that room and play on that tv.

Next problem is how I'm gonna explain everyone to my husband. He's around all the time now cuz he wants to buy a car and he's taking forever to find one.

The neighbors on my floor are cool. They do their own thing on the weekends sometimes and I don't really care. So , I know they won't.

My living is a good size , but will be even bigger If I can get these:

I'm trying to get him to buy some. I don't know if they sell them in NY.

So , I'm really not a good candidate.

Tell your husband you joined a knitting circle, or a prayer group, or that you are hosting a tupperware party, or howbout a meeting of the neighborhood watch...although none of that really explains why we are sitting in your bedroom playing Deadspace or Call of Duty 4 or Rockband, does it?

Aw hell, just tell him the truth, you met a bunch of crazies online and you've invited them over to watch the swearing in. I'm sure he'll believe that

No no no.....it's Super Mario Bros. , Firefox -SNES , and Goldeneye 007 -N64.

Got Monopoly for the serious folks.

cabaki · January 2009

So if no party at Em's house where's the best place to watch tomorrow for folks without a TV who are around during the day?

homeowner · January 2009

I had heard that Tavern on Nostrand was going to be open for this, but they've been pretty hit and miss the last couple of months.

mougar · January 2009

Cafe Steinhof will be showing it, I think.

alafairnadia · January 2009

I wonder if it´ll make the local news here (which verge on horrid due to production value.)

guvna · January 2009

this link has been posted in the fort green thread for a while, but still relevant. Afterall, we're not that far down the road:

kenieva · January 2009

i was at Bristen's on Sunday and the owner (forget her name) told me that they will be showing the inauguration.

asharpsilence · January 2009

im projecting it onto a huge wall outside at columbia university whoop

rtraindweller · January 2009

I'll be at work watching it on my computer. Exciting, I know. However that evening I'll be heading to the Inauguration Day Hardcore Show in Bushwick with Fucked Up, Pissed Jeans, Vivian Girls and a secret special guest.

ringrunner · January 2009

I have turned down my invitation to go to City Hall. I will go to the home of my 3rd grade son's teacher.

Many of the teachers in my kid's school are taking their classes to their home. It is gonna be a pizza party.

carnivore · January 2009

Keep in mind that the inauguration is at noon and the inauguration address by Obama is scheduled for 12:05, so unless people are going to be partying at noon (I plan to start soon thereafter- anyone who wants to join can PM me) I'm not sure what these places will be showing on the TVs. Reruns of the inauguration?

mougar · January 2009

I can't speak for the other venues, but Steinhof is opening at 11A today.

scarlett · January 2009

Besides, I'm at work so I'll be watching the inauguration on Hulu or possible a midtown bar.

anastasia beaverhausen · January 2009

I'm watching it on TV. In my office. I'd rather be at a bar.

scarlett · January 2009

Clearly I need more coffee. Coffee please!!!!!!! With Baileys mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
