thickbox on 2.8 compromise theme

I have the Compromise theme running on wordpress 2.8 and I’m trying to get thickbox to work for popping up simple inline elements from an image map… (See Virginia on http://sabatoscrystalball.com/archives/category/president and look using firebug to see what I’ve tried to do) Unfortunately, I can’t get the thickbox working. I’ve looked at some other help threads on this topic and I’ve made sure I have wp_head in my header.php and wp_footer in my footer.php, but still no good. I’ve also followed the Quick recap instructions on http://dumpster-fairy.com/resources/how-to-fix-thickbox-in-wordpress-2-8/comment-page-1/#comment-110 but still have had no luck. Any help I can get in getting thickbox to be functional would be much appreciated.
