30. My initial though was for the first time, he was looking a little old.

A bit stooped, less bounce to his step, a bit drawn and haggard. The footage of him in the parade the other day, though, looked like the old Joe. Grieving is a wave, a process, good days, bad days, a few steps forward, one step back -- as we all know. Maybe it was a low day for him.

I think after that show, America sincerely wishes him the best.
