104. I had no urge to celebrate.
I was surprised and very turned off by the tree climbers, college cheerleaders etc celebrating outside the White House. I didn't understand it at all. Osama has been hiding for ten years. He got away with it for ten years. If it had taken any longer to get him he may have died from old age...then would there have been the cheerleaders standing on peoples shoulders and mindless chants of USA USA.

Peoples joyous reactions were completely alien to me. I got a call on my cell phone, it was a wrong number, the stranger was excited and telling me to put my TV on because Osama was dead. I thought 'good, about time' and that was that.

Osama killed about 3,000 people on 9/11 and because of that act we killed hundreds of thousands..including our own troops. I think it was a big cluster fuck myself.
