Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I feel surprisingly reluctant to cheer about someone's death
You are a good person, Matt. I am not.
I would very much like the statement to be : " and that's how we do it in Chicago, motherfucker. Joe, tell 'em how it went down."

I'm not unconcerned about retaliation, myself.

Wow. Big news. I expected to be happy, but I think the past decade has just run me down so much that I'm too tired.

I feel surprisingly reluctant to cheer about someone's death, despite having supported the hunt for him for ten years. But I hope this results in less carnage in Afghanistan rather than more, and ultimately lessens the need for us to maintain a military presence there.
This. Although I also like to think of it as a belated birthday present for one of my oldest friends, who lost her high school sweetheart to that maniac. Hopefully this will bring some sort of closure for her and all those who lost a loved one on September 11th.

What Matt said.

Pix, that's exactly how I feel.
