the magazine has an excellent article about baracks sister...

sorry but the magazine does`t have the articles posted on their website. Giant Robot is available at the big chains and "hip" local book stores...

1. I have the We Did It poster in its mailing tube and plan to frame it some day.

I'm glad I got it. As a MoveOn donor I also signed up for their free We Did It sticker, and that's actually on my car next to the Obama '08 bumper sticker I got a year ago. The thin-plastic yard sign I got at the same time fell to pieces as I took it down after the election, or I'd have that too.

2. I got the We Did It poster too

I asked for it for Christmas and hung it on Inauguration Day. I got a frame at 50% off at a craft store and only paid $30 for a nice quality heavy frame. It looks terrific hanging on our red wall. Right in the entryway, at the bottom of the stairs where I see it every morning.

Maybe you could keep an eye out for a similar frame sale?

3. And it is my undying hope that......

.... one day my copy of Giant Robot that I purchased off of ebay on 12/30 will arrive at my house.
