That was a happy day. Naturally, dead won the captioning contest.

Dead rocks, as usual. LOL

Yes, that was a happy day. It was late morning in Baghdad and an eruption of cheers came from a group of Iraqis around the TV in the lobby of the building where I was working at the time.

I went out of my office to investigate and they were all hugging and dancing and the crowd around the TV kept geting bigger.

When they told me what all the celebration was about, I was ecstatic. Soon, the lobby was packed with Iraqis and Americans hugging, high-fiving and cheering.

People kept smiles on their faces for a few days after that. :)
