I decided I should witness the presidential transfer of power events even though I don’t support the felon fellow taking over.Andy had other plans for me.I chose c-span because commercial station commentators tend to talk over things they feel are less important for viewers to hear. You know, like the things more important than their chatter.It pisses me off when they do that, almost as much as when a kitty wants my attention when I’m forcing myself to participate, peripherally, in what feels like an act of responsible citizenship.Andy persists….He gives me “kitten eyes.”“Aw shit, Andy! I’m trying to watch the inauguration of that felon fellow. It’s historic, genuinely a first in our country’s history.”

Shortly after Andy got his way, there was a parade of former presidents into the Capitol rotunda to clownish music played by the US Marine band. It was unsettling.
Other notables got more seemly music, nice bouncy martial music. (No, they did not goose step! Be nice!)
Then, there was a pleasing interval of Classical music, followed by some vocal music with patriotic themes.
The old president got the “Hail to the Chief ” fanfare one final time.
I waited for what the new old president would get.
The new vice president guy got a bouncy Souza march fanfare – nice! – then the new old president got patriotic hymn-like music for his entrance and the usual applause and calls of “USA! USA!”
The rest happened. Quite an improvement over 2021!
