Coffee in Worcester: Pizza Hut

posted by Mike on July 8th, 2007

Bruce recently held a record release party for the new Snow Ghost album at the Pizza Hut in Worcester’s Webster Square. There was no beer, but people drank a fair amount of coffee.

In this interview, we also complain about the local press and discuss mastery.

Happy Fourth of July to Stateside readers.

I am glad that Alan Johnston is now released. I hope and pray that Íngrid Betancourt will also be freed soon.

Tony Blair has recently stepped down as the Prime Minister of Her Britannic Majesty’s Government. There is rumour that he might convert to Catholicism from the Church of England. Anyway, now he will become the envoy of the Quartet on the Middle East. In this connection, it will be instructive to read the end-of-mission report of a former envoy, Álvaro de Soto (thanks to Professor Hugh Robert MacMillan for this).

Blair’s successor, Gordon Brown, is a son of the Manse in the Church of Scotland. Today, at Prime Minister’s Questions, he stated that he would like to “be in a position finance interfaith groups in every community” around here. (Official reports in the Hansard will be digested tomorrow.)
