Yes, indeed. There is a Carnival of Liberty this week, over at OK, so I’m not really a cowboy, and it seems to have the usual plethora of pro-liberty posts worth perusing.
And, yes, there’s a Carnival of Cordite, too, at Resistance is Futile!, as usual. It links to some great gun rights info, an "Avon ladies shot" counter, and multiple videos of miniguns in action. You can’t pass that up.
Thanks for asking.

Just a quick reminder to go check out a couple of this week’s carnivals. First, there’s Carnival of Cordite #60 at Resistance is Futile! Gullyborg managed to put it together in the midst of moving to a new house and new ISP. Lots of links to good stuff, but no pictures (I know — you dial-up folks are cheering). I suppose they’re all still in boxes. 😉
Then, there’s Carnival of Liberty #47 over at New World Man. Lots of good posts, which Matt organized into categories related to the Indy 500 — Gasoline Alley, Yellow Flag, etc. Pretty clever. I think he did it just so he could sprinkle in some pictures of Danica Patrick.

Drop by Left Brain Female and check out all the fine posts that Kay’s gathered together in Carnival of Liberty #46. Good job. I even forgive her for the snide remark about those of us who prefer Arabic to Roman numerals.
I use Arabic numbers not because I’m "roman numerically challenged" or because I want to honor the last significant intellectual achievement from that part of the world. I use Arabic numbers for the same reason that I eat Chinese and Japanese food with a fork instead of chopsticks: the "new technology" simply works better than the old, so why cling to the "traditional" tools for anything other than decorative purposes?

Check out Carnival of Cordite #59 at Resistance is Futile! Gullyborg has been busy, so it’s all links, no pictures (bringing joy to you dial-up folks). But, boy, does he have links — and lots of them lead to cool pictures and videos. There won’t be a Carnival of Cordite next week, so get your fill now!
Next, drop by Below the Beltway and peruse the postings in Carnival of Liberty #45. Lots of interesting and provocative stuff.
The Watcher’s Council probably has some good reading, too. But I’m still in a snit over their failure to properly honor Gerard Van der Leun’s Of a Fire in a Field, one of the most moving things I’ve read in a long time, so I haven’t dropped by there lately.

Woops, I almost forgot! Carnival of Liberty #44 is being hosted by Ed Minchau at Robot Guy (where you’ll also find an amazing video of a guy singing Stairway to Heaven backwards — now, that’s entertainment!). Interesting posts organized into the categories of Life, Liberty, and Property — go check ’em out.
Also, Carnival of Cordite #58 is back at its usual home, Resistance is futile!, and Gullyborg has lots of pictures to make it fun (unless you’re on dialup). So drop by and take a look. Doesn’t that .357 derringer look like a bear to shoot?
[Really, I’m not kidding about the amazing Stairway to Heaven video. When you first start listening, you’ll think it’s being faked. But at the end, he takes out a cigarette, lights it, and smokes it. And then, when you play the thing backwards … simply amazing!]

I’ve been remiss about my reading lately — not to mention my recommendations. For starters, I suddenly realized that I hadn’t even visited this week’s Carnival of Liberty (hosted at Searchlight Crusade), much less linked to it. Shame on me — especially since Dan said such nice things about my entry. Dan did a nice job, sorting the submissions into three categories — Life, Liberty, and Property. Go check them out.
I also forgot about the latest Carnival of Cordite, hosted for the first time at Spank That Donkey. Chris did a nice job, and I’m sure the folks on dialup connections appreciate the fact that he posted small thumbnails instead of larger images. Some interesting submissions. Check ’em out.
Finally, I haven’t even checked out last week’s winning Watcher’s Council entries yet, much less this week’s list of nominees. The latter, by the way, includes two American Digest posts, one of which I’ll say more about shortly. If it doesn’t win as best non-council entry, the council members need their heads examined.

Left Brain Female is hosting this week’s 41st edition of the Carnival of Liberty. Kay did a great job of grabbing the carnival metaphor and running with it, complete with rides, cotton candy, sideshows, and games of skill. Go check it out — there are a ton of entries this week. In fact, let me know which ones you think are the best, in case l don’t have time to read them all. 😉

This week’s Carnival of Liberty is up at Doug Mataconis’ new, improved, non-Blogspot Below The Beltway. The new look is real nice, and the carnival has some interesting entries. Check it out. And don’t overlook Dr. Rummel’s post at Dean’s World describing the "General Version of the Democratic Peace," which extends his observation that "democratically free countries do not or virtually never make war on each other." Important stuff.
