I didn't know I needed the new Billy Joel documentary NPR critic Linda Holmes has been a Billy Joel fan since the '80s. HBO's new two-part documentary still taught her something new about his life — and provided a chance to consider the role of his music in her own.

Everything is terrible so here are some adorable fox kits.

Doing my best to process this week by spending Saturday morning in one of my happy places - Copenhagen Harbor.

But oh what a week to be an American - let alone a former Ambassador - in Denmark these days.

So much more to say.
