Subject: RE: That Hat - Aretha Franklin singing at inauguration

I thought she was great -- actually the best performance at the end -- and the hat was a reminder that she is now A BIG WOMAN.

One of the nicest things still about a Sunday around where I live is that the black women go to church, and there is no nonsense: they dress up smart, smart, smart. A real dignity.

yours,
