How to Cure Your Inauguration Hangover

So you a drank a little too much Obama last night, and you're paying for it today. Change rings in your ears, and the sour taste of hope dries up your mouth. It's no secret that the only antidote to a hangover is consuming more of what got you there in the first place. Which means the best way to alleviate your Obama hangover is by drinking more of him. Here's a roundup of the post-inauguration Internet landscape:
● IsObamaPresident.com is for those of you who have trouble sleeping at night, maybe because you're worried about the future, maybe because you no longer have a roof over your head. No matter. According to this site and at the time of this writing, Obama has only been in office for 22 hours, 59 minutes, 20 seconds. There's a lot of time left.
● This is the first day of Obama eating whatever he wants, whenever he wants, even if he's forty thousand feet in the air. Here he is ordering a cheeseburger aboard Air Force One and getting it done ... medium well? I miss George Bush. At least he knew how to eat.
● While most of you were using the inauguration as an excuse to get shitfaced at a nearby dive, Barack Obama was using it as an excuse to celebrate his new presidency. And is there a better way to celebrate than a slow dance with your wife, while a very emotional Beyonce sings? Getting shitfaced was pretty fun, though.
● The inauguration as seen from space. This is just plain awesome.
● Obama hasn’t saved the economy yet, but he single-handedly saved print.
