It's hard not to smile when you read about Conrad Black being found guilty. The man has taken arrogance to a new level has been humbled (although his ego may be just big enough for him not to be).
The best part is that he isn't eligible to spend his time (about 10 years) in one of those "country club" prisons because they are only for American citizens. He isn't eligible to transfer to a Canadian prison because he gave up his Citizenship to become a member of the House of Lords (Lord Black of Crossharbour). He'll have to spend his time working in the laundry and living in a cell in a low or medium security prison.
I shouldn't be so happy celebrating the misfortune of others but in this case I am (fingers crossed on the appeal).
