Love in practice is a harsh and dreadful thing compared to love in dreams.
Worcester Activist is down
In fact, more than a dozen local websites are down. The shared account got cancelled. Somebody is moving them today, and they should be back soon.

Ms. Ross is best known as the Green-Rainbow Party candidate in the 2006 Massachusetts governor’s race. She lives in Worcester’s Piedmont neighborhood.
In our first podcast using the live TalkShoe service, the Saint Kermit team talks about the Virginia Tech shooting and Massachusetts politics with former Green-Rainbow gubernatorial candidate Grace Ross.
It was great to have Charlie call in and ask Grace some questions. This kind of interaction more than makes up for the sound problems we had with TalkShoe. I’m sorta bummed, though, that Saint Kermit will no longer be heavily edited to make me sound smart and quick on my feet.
Here’s some photos from the Catholic Social Teaching conference at Anna Maria. I used a videocamera in a dark room, so they’re not the best.

We’ll be interviewing Grace Ross, former Massachusetts Green-Rainbow Party candidate for governor and Worcester resident, Tuesday night for the Saint Kermit podcast.
We’re recording the podcast with the TalkShoe service, which means you can listen to it as we record it, and phone in with your own questions. See the Saint Kermit website for details.
Grace is making “an important announcement” Wednesday morning, and we’ll be asking her about that.
We always pick the topics for Saint Kermit a few minutes before recording it, so I’m not sure what else we’ll be talking about. Probably sports and taxes. The regular team of Jim Henderson, Tony Lorenzen, Janine Duffy, and myself will be hosting.
This is a recording of a homily by Father Bernie Gilgun, from his weekly Mass at the Mustard Seed in Worcester, Massachusetts. You can download the mp3 (3.2MB) or see other formats. You can also subscribe (RSS) to the podcast.
