Catymology

The Carnival of Satire is back in action at the squib, with a great concatenation of relevant irreverence.

And the original blog carnival, the Carnival of the Vanities, celebrates 4 years of publication with its 208th edition at its new home: First Carnival. Run on over and give them a few chin chucks, will you?

To elaborate on why I like carnivals: they remind me of the good old days that amanuensis talks about, when poets and writers of every kind started publishing their own magazines, inviting submissions from all over the place. A blog carnival is a little magazine with a big heart and one or more dedicated volunteers. You have to admire them for that.
