According to two local Washington, DC media outlets (WTOP / WJLA), the JCCIC has begun to mail out the promised official apology / commemorative Inauguration packets to rejected (purple, blue, and silver) ticket holders. The mailings apparently began to arrive as early as this past Monday [...]]]></description>

If you attempted to attend (i.e. were denied access with a purple, blue, or silver ticket) the 56th Presidential Inauguration, and have yet to contact the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies, be sure to put your name and address at the top (above your well-crafted, tasteful retelling of the incidents/obstacles you faced on Jan.

It&#8217;s been a week since the frustrating and (mostly) avoidable situation unfolded for thousands of purple, blue, and silver ticket holders in our Nation&#8217;s capital.  As I keep trying reiterate (and I clearly can&#8217;t speak for everyone), all of us purple people are still talking about the Inauguration not because we want retribution (or to [...]]]></description>

I thought it would be helpful to post this overhead view (original image via PopSci) of the 2009 Inauguration for all of the (lucky) people who were not part of Purple Gate so that you could get an idea of both how close we were (and yet unable to see or hear anything) and to [...]]]></description>

Local Washington, DC TV station, NBC4, is reporting that those of us who never made it in to see Obama&#8217;s Inauguration this past Tuesday will be given &#8220;consolation prizes&#8221; in exchange for the extremely frustrating/disappointing hardships we faced.

This past Sunday, 2 days before Obama&#8217;s Inauguration, the Washington DC Metro area was full of jubilant visitors from around the globe.  On our way downtown, we stumbled upon this hilarious &#8220;tribute&#8221; to W &#8211; a fitting final farewell to one of the least popular presidents in US history.
