I HAVE A WINNING TEMPERAMENT!

' "She doesn't have the stamina" says the guy who has been sniffling all night.'

And I fear that if the last year wasn't enough to show Trump the door, this debate isn't going to do it (though it clearly should)

NOBODY CALLS SEAN HANNITY!

TREMENDOUS JOBS!

I just used Google to search for "non-Google search engines". Awkward!

I was a fan of Bowie's music, but I'm actually a bit more sad that there will now never be a proper sequel to Labyrinth.
