amazing how long eight years have felt?
But when the new President graciously paused to let the inexperienced Chief Justice figure out the oath of office (“President to the United States. . . faithfully”? What English language is this?),
When the elder of the First Daughters recorded the day’s events with her camera,
When the Rev. Joseph Lowery’s benediction almost stole the poetry show from the inaugural poem,
When this site changed instantaneously at noon,
It was too amazing for words. So Aretha Franklin’s awesome hat will have to do the talking:
Amazing. Rock on, America.
