This week, Mike and Brendan begin with a recap of city government’s efforts to bring Google Fiber to Worcester. The Whiskerite charity beard competition raised almost $1000. Check out the video.
We have learned of the origins of the “Right Place, Right Time” song. (Video here, too.) Anyone have a copy of Worcester’s 1972 theme?
CSX wants to expand their Worcester rail yard. We are planning to learn about Worcester’s position on the Opioid Overdose Prevention program.
Worcester’s metalheads are awesome. We may as well link to Juggalo News.
Mike is enthusiastic about the Free Store at the Holden Recycling Center, and Coinstar.
We don’t like Worcester’s proposed pit bull ordinance. Mike recommends a Malcolm Gladwell article on the subject.
Finally, Holmes Wilson had a beautiful wedding in the Midtown Mall.
