  <description>508 is a show about Worcester. This week, I sat on a couch with &lt;a href="http://www.radioball.net"&gt;Brendan Melican&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://www.wormtowntaxi.com"&gt;Jeff Barnard&lt;/a&gt; and talked about the city.&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
Relevant links: The Catholic Free Press ran a better story about the &lt;a href="http://catholicfreepress.org/News%20Archive/0516Activists.html"&gt;Planned Parenthood hearing&lt;/a&gt; than the T&amp;G; the T&amp;G moderates comments in odd ways; Start On The Park is a great arts event Sunday 11am-4pm in Beaver Brook Park; Claire Schaeffer-Duffy was found guilty for her &lt;a href="http://witnesstorture.org/"&gt;Gitmo protest&lt;/a&gt;; Mike's federal trial is in a couple weeks, please come out and support him; last night we &lt;a href="http://worcesterite.com/no-slogan-day"&gt;rejected Worcester's lame marketing slogans&lt;/a&gt; at the Dive Bar. (And Kate Toomey bought Mike a beer!)&#13;

&#13;
Also: &lt;em&gt;Worcester Magazine&lt;/em&gt; wrote about &lt;a href="http://www.worcestermagazine.com/content/view/2807/"&gt;Charter's web monitoring plans&lt;/a&gt;, despite Charter being one of their biggest advertisers; Bruce Russell has been entered into the "We Got the Beat" casting call; the InCity Times celebrate's &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin's_law"&gt;Godwin's Law&lt;/a&gt;; the diocese should make better use of its young Catholics; Mike's new favorite blog is &lt;a href="http://gwltlodge.blogspot.com/"&gt;Cascading Waters&lt;/a&gt;.&#13;
&#13;
And: &lt;a href="http://www.ci.worcester.ma.us/cco/elections/poll_worker.htm"&gt;You can sign up to be a poll worker&lt;/a&gt;, and we plan to interview &lt;a href="http://renegadeblogspot.blogspot.com/"&gt;renegade blogger Marc Reese&lt;/a&gt;.&#13;
&#13;
Plus: We're really mad about that &lt;a href="http://www.wormtowntaxi.com/2008/05/winchendon-confidential.html"&gt;kid who got suspended for having a bullet casing&lt;/a&gt;.</description>
