It's my first victory in months in the blogger dead pool- King Fahd of Saudi Arabia is dead. Fahd had been incapacitated for several years, and columnist Taki Theodoracopouloswrote a few years ago that Fahd "a playboy king who has gotten so fat he is bedridden because his knees can no longer take the strain." And I'm sure Fahd would be thrilled to know that oil reached an all-time record price on the day of his death.
