Think you know your inauguration trivia?

President Barack Obama gives his inaugural address to a worldwide audience from the West Steps of the U.S. Capitol after taking the oath of office in Washington, D.C., Jan. 20, 2009 Today is arguably the most fun and celebratory of the nation's quadrennial political events, one that really gets the history buffs going. If you really want to impress friends and family with your encyclopedic knowledge of the event, here's the great big official press guide, all 106 pages of it.

It includes'I love this'the luncheon menu for today. It will be hosted by the members of the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies for nearly 200 guests, including the "President, Vice President, members of their families, the Supreme Court, Cabinet designees, and members of Congressional leadership will attend the event in Statuary Hall." On the menu: "Steamed Lobster with New England Clam Chowder Sauce, Hickory Grilled Bison with Red Potato Horseradish Cake and Wild Huckleberry Reduction, and Hudson Valley Apple Pie with Sour Cream Ice Cream, Aged Cheese and Honey." That's not the good part, though. The good part is that they give the recipes for these dishes so you can have your own inaugural luncheon. Sour cream ice cream with maple caramel sauce, here I come.

As for today's events, the guide also tells you anything and everything you might want to know. For example, you know Franklin Delano Roosevelt was the only president to serve four terms, but did you know he used the same Bible for all four swearings-in? And that that Bible "is the oldest Inaugural Bible, printed in 1686, and the only one written in a modern foreign language: Dutch"?

Some more fun stuff below the fold.
