It was 9:30 at night and we were casually watching Fox News when Geraldo was going on and on about the President wanting to address the nation soon. We thought it was kind of odd that he would want to do so, so late on a Sunday evening, so we kept tuned in. The kept making speculations about why he was doing it and the Geraldo made a super out-there-in-left-field comment regarding that maybe for some odd reason it was because we had taken out Bin Laden. I made a comment out loud to Kevin that he can't just be saying that kind of stuff...then Geraldo made a comment right after I said that, that he was just speculating, but how wonderful it would be if that was the case. Seriously, no more than 3-4 minutes go by and he grabs his ear as the official news did come across. US forces had killed Usama in a raid...the terror of the US was now officially dead after years and years of searching for him. I had flash backs of the exact day that the Sept 11th disaster happened and how surreal that this day was now happening. I totally thought it was a joke, but more and more information kept coming in and it was SOOOO real!
