Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Praying for you and your family, Liese.

The fact that Cruz, whom they despise and is only couple notches down on the crazy meter, is the only person they think might have a chance of beating Trump is unbelievable.

I think that's why Boehner is talking about Paul Ryan out of the blue; Cruz or Trump is like the worst ever game of Death Is Not an Option.

Peace and strength to you and your family, Liese. We're here if you need us.

Today was my regular day off, and since my nose is nearly healed, I took the dog for a very slow run in the redwoods. Did some banking for Dad, did some yard work, ran some errands, and went to see Zootopia. Finished that off with a nice glass of rose in the sun.

I've had worse days.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Liese, my thoughts and prayers are with your dad, you, and your whole family.
