You're welcome, haha! Sorry about the breach in protocol. I got over-excited. It won't happen again.

If Obama announces that bin Laden is dead, it will make my year.

I'm probably going to hell for that comment....

[synth___romance]

this was like my second thought...
so this wins it for him in 2012?

[washable]

I hope he wins 2012 for more than just that.

I'm on AIM when a friend who witnessed the 9/11 attacks from her high school window. She's crying tears of happiness. At least some people can get closure...

God help me, it was my first.

Thanks so much!!

Are the local news stations going to have it or just 24hr?

[papilio_luna]

I"m going to guess the major US networks will cut into programming to broadcast it if it really is what everyone is saying it is.
