Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Neither have ours. Shocking.

None of my three dogs have either. I think the beagle might even be pro-Trump. He's a total narcissist too.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Beagles are sketchy politically.

Just had a kid hiding in my office during a game of hide and seek. I didn't give her away.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I'm not quite sure what I did wrong this week, but I take it back, I swear. My parents (thankfully) emailed from Munich to say they were okay.

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.

I can't cope with the U.S.'s insanity infecting other places.

Dear lord. I'd say "when will this end" but that this point "with the apocalypse" seems like too possible an answer.

Trump, on the National Enquirer's reporting that Ted Cruz' father met with Oswald:

I've always said, "Why didn't the National Enquirer get the Pulitzer Prize for Edwards, and OJ Simpson, and all of these things?"

Sounds like Hillary's VP will be Kaine, Vilsack, Perez, or Booker.

I think Kaine or Vilsack would make an excellent, well-qualified VP pick you would do the job very well. But to do the job you have to win the election first and I think Perez or Booker would be better there while either would make a perfectly fine VP. My pick would be Booker. I think he'd be great on the campaign trail. Nothing against Perez, I just like Booker a little better.

Poor Vilsack, always the bridesmaid. I'm assuming Hillary doesn't pick him because she won't.

My gut feeling is that she'll go with Kaine or Perez.
