Carnival of the Magnolias I

Welcome, readers, to the first ever Carnival of the Magnolias. It is my pleasure, as your host, to bring you some of the very best from the southern portion of the blogosphere!

We start things off In Tennessee with a wonderful post by Poopie where she answers the question: What's a b**g?

From there we move on to North Carolina and Justin Thibault's blog where he discusses local government failings in the area's jail expandment process.

We head on over to West Virginia where Don Surber points out an interesting and funny article about the stupidity of the term "metrosexual."

Next it's on to Texas where Vikingjuice makes a heartfelt post after finding out the Astros made it to the World Series. Too bad they fell short to the Sox.

We hit the road again where we go back to North Carolina as Longstreet of INSIGHT on Freedom gives us some great info on the illegal immigration problem in the southwestern U.S. Ever heard of Aztland? You'd better read his post.

We head up to Virginia and Norman Leahy's blog, One Man's Trash, where he points out the dirty underhanded tricks of the Democratic candidate, Tim Kaine, in Virginia's governor's race.

Reb Chaim HaQoton makes some interesting observations in his two part entry about morals and murder in Judaism. Read Part I here and part II here.

Finally, to wrap things up this week, we head back to West Virginia where Don Surber debunks the idea that the drug war is a waste of time.

Well, all in all I'd say we had a very good initial Carnival. It was truly a pleasure to read all of the fantastic entries this week. I'll be hosting next week's Carnival of the Magnolias as well. If you're a blogger from the Southern United States and have an interesting post to submit, take a look here and submit your post!

Shucks,

My folks and my ex were from Texas.

I feel left out since they moved to California, where I was born.

Do roots count?

I am a kiddo of Dixie at heart.

Oooooh, I just love carnivals. I have requested an invitation to join the Southern Blog Federation and if I get approved I'd love to host the carnival sometime in the future.
