Indeed, Dave. A tiny improvement on your nigh-on perfect answer would be that

      \w




matches any word character -- you don't have to 'negate' space. A simple

      \w\s+\w+\s*$




does the trick. You only have to specify one single character of the 2nd to last word, although a side effect is that this word might be broken (but if that bothers you, use '\w+' instead). The final '\s*' is to ignore zero-or-more space characters at the end of the paragraph, as there always seems to be.
