I’ve decided to listen through all my jazz CDs (in alphabetical order, as they appear on my shelves) and give each one a rating, one per day (unless I forget and fall behind).
Why? Because I love jazz, and I enjoy rating and reviewing things.

ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

You’ve been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who’s coming to save you?
O Captain, My Captain. He'll save me with free samples, serious dad vibes, conviviality, and evocative cultural experiences.

Twirl Mom Report Week 13: I'm featuring the Colorado Buffaloes feature twirlers, one of whom is my daughter's teammate from Dallas. Her new White costume has a very elegant figure skater vibe. The other twirler CU twirler may have one of my favorite costumes ever w/ the rhinestoned mountain motif.
