“Celebrate Change” limited edition print released

Posted by angeliexists on November 3, 2008

I’ve released a limited edition print for the Obama Election Night Rally in Grant Park on Craigslist and Etsy.  Apart from an early computer disaster, I’ve enjoyed working on this project.  We wish you guys could be here for this.  Ed and I have secured tickets, and we’re looking forward to being there in the cold chaos.

My sales post is after the jump.

And only you—the people standing here today, and indeed all the people of this great nation—only you can deliver this change.”

When did the Onion get its groove back? I remember picking it up, wanting to laugh at anything even remotely funny. Now, I don’t have to try as hard. It’s like the dark years of SNL. My theory is that half of the Onion staff quit to move onto failing movie careers and/or died. Ed thinks they just got lazy because of Bush.
