Tarheel Tavern #65
Welcome to The Tarheel Tavern, number sixty-five.
Wow. Has it really been that long? Indeed, it has. The very first Tavern was February 27, 2005 at Science and Politics. It's been kept going every week since then.
As has been noted by others in discussions, the idea of the carnival does seem to be fading a bit these days. When carnivals were new, they were "IT," so everyone wanted to join, participate, and host. I used to be With IT. But then they changed what IT was. Now what I'm with isn't IT, and what's IT seems scary and wierd. It'll happen to YOU! So there are more carnivals and less people playing...but no matter, we will continue this carnival as long as there's even ONE entry...even if there's only two like this week...except for coturnix who sent a whole pile... 
So, Bora, of Science and Politics, who, like the Ogre, is trying to write a Ph.D. thesis, sends along the latest reason to delay the actual writing, book reviewing! Yes, I am well-aware that it doesn't take much to come up with an excuse NOT to write the thesis. Beware of once you start submitting articles for publication -- then you get added to the list of "reviewers" for OTHER people's articles -- even if you don't get published the first time.
The next entry is from Moomin Light. Moomin highlights a song with a rather unusual title: England 2 Columbia 0. That's quite a title, so I'm sure if you've heard it before, you'd remember it. But since you haven't, I suggest you head on over there and see what it's all about!
Last up, I get my own entry in the carnival. Why? Well, because I'm the host and I want to, so nyyeh. My entry is about a wonderful festival in the mountains that is now an annual event. This year was the third year, and they certainly plan on doing it again -- and I plan on showing up next year for the second time. If you're nearby, you really should stop by.
Usually this is where I head to other usual entries and "find" some entries for this lovely carnival. However, I've got some company over this fine evening and am quite limited for time. Next time submit your own entries, you bums!
