Luckier Than The General

I'm thinking that I'm luckier than General Petraeus.

My torment will be over relatively quickly, though the aftermath will last for a while; his will go on for two days... and the aftermath will last for a while.

Mine won't be televised and analyzed....his most certainly will.

I'll be asleep for part of it, and I'll have painkillers for afterwards. He'll be awake... though I imagine he'll think longingly of the occasionally belt of something alcoholic.

Yeah, I'm luckier.

Five hours, and counting....
