You're fooling yourself.  The only reason you are better is because
you are legally qualified, you old fart*.

Hmm, an idea just hit me.  In another aritcle, you write:

Invented it in the 6th century?  In the highlands of Scotland*, I
wager.  Makes me wonder...  Then back to your original post:

Lightning storms struck you?  Now I am positive.

Let's take another look at that earlier sentence again:
>       'The Veep' (bav's unofficial mortal running-mate, only chosen

What we have here is an immortal's plot to rule the country.*  Jim is
trying to lull us into a sense of security, believing that only one of
the men on the '04 ticket is an immortal, when they both are.  Bav's
"evil brother" may be our only means of salvation, since he opposes
these would-be tyrants.  The gathering is at hand!  All immortals will
take sides!  Now I understand why he is not afraid of ogging people.*

The latter, I guess.
