Inaugural Morning Toasts
12:27 p.m.: "Can I get a shot of absinthe?" is not the sort of question you expect to hear before noon, but the Brightest Young Things Inauguration Spectacular at Bohemian Caverns is not your average inauguration party. Champagne glasses filled with mimosas line the bar and clutter tables, but a good number of twenty-something guys are taking their cue from the cardboard cutout of Billy Dee Williams and sipping from tall cans of Colt 45 malt liquor as they cheer the oath of office.
