Oh, I read Crying in H Mart and liked it, but I hadn't put it together with Japanese Breakfast. Thanks!

Also, sadly, the bit about the sheriff hiring hit men -- I clicked on the link, thinking I knew what you were talking about, and realized the story I was thinking of is a *different* but also recent story about an ex-soldier-turned-hit-man (also with a race component if I remember rightly). Well, that's depressing.

It’s a depressing state of affairs out there, we need this Civil War to end.

The drummer for Fitz and the Tantrums owns a couple coffee shops in Missoula called Drum Coffee.

My favorite DBT record is The Dirty South. "Where the Devil Don't Stay" is arguably my favorite song of theirs, and the stuff Jason Isbell did with them is stuff I like way better than what he is doing now ... but that stuff is okay too. I've had a couple good conversations with Patterson Hood; once in an official capacity writing for the Indy, and once because he came into the bookstore when I was still there. He seems a decent enough guy.

I have the reissue of that album on pre-order. I'm glad they're good people. I didn't know Isbell played with them.
