Where is Colbert?

Last week (maybe 2) I think that they were on vacation. This week, they were good Monday I think, and then back in reruns.
Has there been any word? The last I saw, there was officially, "no comment".
Do you think Colbert is spending the PAC money? Does anyone suspect Jimmy Fallon or Ben and Jerry?

The
'not quite official word'
is that his mother may be ill.

I was wondering why last night's episode was a repeat of Monday's(?).

Your professors were probably afraid of your galactic genius and did everything they could (behind the scenes) to thwart your hedginess.

Good luck Colbert Family!
(I still think that it is related to Fallon's Late Night Snack.... chocolate covered potato chips??!! American Dream Cone is much better.... BUT there is a conspiracy! My local grocery has plenty of Late Night Snack but NO American Dream Cone. Who is behind this disgrace?)

Colbert is back on.
Just before he got started, he said, "Apparently having 11 kids makes you tough as nails. Confidential to a lovely lady."
