I heard he is ranked the #1 person likely to die last during Armageddon.

There was a standup comedian who made the comment that cockroaches and Keith Richards were the only lifeforms capable of surving an atomic holocaust. He would do an impression of Keith after the explosions:
[Staggers bleary-eyed to the front of the stage]
"What happened, man? I saw a bright flash of light...are we on?...Where's me guitar, man?..."

He lives in Weston, Connecticut most of the times. So go there!
See what I did? I saved a person! Now that surely must get me on board for heaven tomorrow!

Depends on who you save...
If you saved me, you may have much to answer for; a friend once gave me card and said it applied to me: "Boy, am I in trouble when I die; Heaven doesn't want me and Hell is afraid I'll take it over." My friends are cruel, but generally honest in their opinions...

Nah, just do like Mark Twain said and move to Cincinnati. Everything here happens ten years later.

"On the whole, I'd rather be in Philadelphia"
(Quote on the tombstone of W.C. Fields, who hated Philadelphia)
Incidentally, there is story Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. told about finding W.C. Fields intently studying a copy of the Bible with a magnifying glass:
Fairbanks: Bill, What are you doing?
Fields [not looking up]: What does it look like? I'm studying the Bible.
Fairbanks: But, I thought you weren't religious?
Fields [still not looking up]: I'm not.
Fairbanks: Then, why are you studying the Bible?
Fields: I'm looking for loopholes.
