The Carnival of the Insanities this week offers a cautionary tale of what happens when you accept an offer of free beer on a stolen phone.
Carnivalesque XXVI (the early modern edition) is at Siris this month. "(T)he links of this Carnivalesque focus on food, on drink, on violence, on sex, on spectacle and pageantry, on the startling and the surprising, on chance and vicissitude, with some other things thrown into the mix." Just my cup of tea.
From there to the Carnival of Rock 'n Roll is but a small two step, and this premier edition features such penetrating analysis as "Why classic rock, but not classic rap?" and Cello Rock. Fifth of Beethoven, Fifth of Chivas...
The History Carnival, now a monthly event instead of publishing biweekly, had its 52nd edition at ClioWeb. It's got pagans, Christians and a whole lot of pole dancing going on.
And finally, the 11th Festival of the Trees is out at Flatbush Gardener, with everything from the suburban forest to the concrete jungle on display for your reading pleasure.
