1. I have an India Pale Ale ready to pop as soon as I hear

2. Is that the cue before the actual speech?
Or is there time left between swear in and speech?

4. I read that it's not the moment of the oath
but 12:00 is when it's official but I could be wrong.

6. I believe you're correct about that....
But it won't really hit me until I hear Obama utter that last phrase of the oath.
