I think about this often. Growing up I had several "bullies" that made my life miserable. Almost every single one of them passed away at a relatively young age. I had nothing to do with their deaths but it usually brings a smile to my face when I think about some of them and the situations that brought about their demise. . .
"I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it!" -- attributed to Mark Twain

"I have never wished a man dead, but I have read some obituaries with great pleasure." -- attributed to Mark Twain

While the attributions may not be valid, these two quotes do express my sentiments when in comes to deceased bullies.

I was going to post Celebration by Kool and the Gang, but that would be in very bad taste, wouldn't it?
