The Tarheel Tavern is a weekly blog carnival of North Carolina bloggers. Writers do not necessarily have to live in NC, but their posts have to be about North Carolina. The Tarheel Tavern home page is here. Previous hosts have been Science and Politics, Pratie Place, and Ogre’s Politics and Views. Next week’s host is up in the air. If you would like to host it, contact Bora, whose email address is on the Tavern home page.
On to the Posts.
First up, Ron of 2sides2iron, who is discussing Sexual Expression Inequality. It is a well written expression, which made me do some thinking when I first read it.
Chewie of Chewie’s World Order has an interesting piece regarding a recent Greensboro City Council meeting, which has alot to do with the Nazi/Klan murders in 1979.
Bora of Science and Politics introduces us to Teaching the Scientific Method.
Stewart Pittman of Viewfinders Blues explains the difficulties in blending in in a bar on St. Patty’s Day with a huge camera on your shoulder in Of Leprechauns and Lounge Lizards
George Peterson from Dirty Greek wants to Pop the Cap on the NC grog beer percentage law. I whole heartedly agree!
Ogre of Ogre’s Politics and Views explains why the Tarheel State is called the The Tarheel State. Learn something new every day!
Last, but certainly not least, Melinama of Pratie Place brings us a story of Don Jose Tienda Mexican. I call it mouth watering, and may have to drive on down to Carrboro and check it out myself. I am hungry again after reading the story!
As for myself, I just want to share a couple photos. 
First is from Umstead Park, in Raleigh, which I took with my new digital camera. The picture is untouched, except for shrinking it down from a huge size, at 1.9mb. I have been here since 2004, and, until this week I had never been there. Beautiful place. And much better then this.
 One thing about NC, you will NEVER be bored with the weather. Snow, ice, sleet, rain, thunderstorms, tornados, hurricanes/tropical/extra-tropical storms, floods, too hot, too cold. I love it.
If I have missed anyone, except my apologies, and drop me a line. We still need a host for the Tavern for next week, so drop by the Tarheel Tavern and drop Bora a line!
Very nice! Thank you!

Thank ye.
I am going to through the trackbacks up as soon as I can get into typepad.
Well done!
Not enough snow this year for my liking. But otherwise, you’re right about the nice variety.
Formidable! I look forward to reading all the “chapters”. Nice pics ya got there too!
Makes me want to run out and get a decent camera…
Was your’s a decent price?
Off to read more links!

Mister Teach,
Have you been embriared with domestic duty?
Ironing getting to you?
Don’t take it out of Ron! He too has two sides.
Not two sides to iron! 🙂
(see 2sides2iron)
I must admit though…I get screwed up on that one alot…
Best,
Dave
Dave, I got the Canon Powershot ES300. Very highly recommended. 4mpxl. I was looking for a tiny digital with a fast shutter. It is perfect.
The Carnival Wire
FoH Laurence’s Carnival of Cats turned one yesterday. The 4th Tar Heel Tavern appeared yesterday as well. And yet another one rears itself from the muck; The Carnival of the Un-Capitalists. (vi TIC)…
Hey William.
I just came back into town from a visit to my Mom’s home in Wilmington. She turned 80 on Friday! Woo hoo!
Glad to see you found a few more participants for this week’s THT. I am new to blogging, but am willing to host if it is not too technically challenging. I sent a note to Courtenix to say as much.
Thanks for your kind words.
Safe journeys!
Ron
You write well, Ron, and your post really did make me think.
Definately, host a Tavern. It is great exposure, a good way to get your name out there. As a new blogger, doing things like Carnivals, commenting on other blogs, linking, etc, are great things to do. See my post “Bumping that traffic up” in the top left, follow the link to Bad Example, who writes very well on it.
Me, I’ve gotten a little slack as of late, but it is always a good reminder.
