Well, good, then for a change my faith in the fairness and intelligence of the common man is justified.

Ture enough. It is undoubtedly just in hindsight that it seems to have rolled through rather more forcefully, and accrued champions rather more quickly. It seems longer when you are observing it in real time.

5. Frist and his kind have many healthy years before them. You'll be too old and arthritic to dance on his grave.

Don't count on it. First off, he's male, and therefore genetically inferior and likely to die younger. Second, I can't dance now, so being arthritic is unlikely to greatly decrease my abilities. Third, how old do you think I am?
