It’s impossible to write on this topic without “No more, Mr. Nice guy” circling around my head. These are lyrics from that overplayed anthem by Alice Cooper. It’s my fault for listening to Classic Rock radio so much.

Something else enters my mind that must be acknowledged, and that is: do nice guys really finish last? Please do not try to answer it, as it is not worth your time. However, the question is not far removed from what I intend to discuss with you today.
