I moved to Denver 23 years ago last August. Tonight I went to a house warming party and it seemed like all the loose ends and odd coincidences got tied up in a pretty bow.

This was a super fun documentary to watch. You can tell Mike Seeger loves music so much because his eyes light up and a smile broadens his face at each one of the sessions and then he asks excited questions as soon as the musicians are done. Five stars!

I got 4 hours of sleep tonight and then went to an all day work meeting. I am so ready to get home and fall into bed. Happy Friday?

After evening services at the Buddhist temple tonight I found this gem. When Uncle Dave Macon is on, he's one of the best. Glad I finally get to listen to these rare 78's that I've only read about previously.

BREAKING from PP

We found immigration agents have held more than 170 *citizens*

The govt doesn't track citizens held. So we did. We tallied:

Nearly 20 kids, two w/ cancer

More than 20 citizens held for day or more, incommunicado

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...
