Silver Circle Contest Now Through Friday!

So the contest I launched at the end of July was such a huge success that I'm doing a second one for this week only and giving you another chance to win free, inflation-proof silver! As this libertarian website edged close to 400 subscribers, I didn't want to simply pass it and end up at 405 subscribers- I wanted to blow way past it, and you helped me do it!

With almost 80 new subscribers from the last contest, we're now in striking range of blowing past 500 if we can duplicate the results we got one month ago! If we can get there, it will truly make The Humble Libertarian one of the premier political blogs on the Internet and set us up for some great success promoting the libertarian ideas and activism that I have planned for the Fall.

I'm also doing a second contest because multiple people contacted me right after the contest who were disappointed that they missed the deadline; and because The Silver Circle Movie project was so impressed with the results of the contest, that they too wanted to give you a chance to win free silver!

Here's what I'm giving away:

Three Silver Circle Comic Books

Tyranny, explosions, monetary mayhem, romance and rebels. "The Chase" is a teaser chapter for "Silver Circle" an upcoming independent, animated feature film and graphic novel. This limited edition book (only 500 printed) has been signed by artist, Jackie Musto. More information here.

And a .999 Fine Silver,
1 oz. Silver Circle Coin

This elegant one-ounce, commemorative movie coin is made of inflation-proof, fine silver. Take just five minutes and enter the contest now for a chance to win it!

How To Enter

The deadline for entry is at the end of the day on Friday, September 3rd. That means you only have four days to enter! I will be drawing an e-mail address at the end of the day on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday for each of the three comic books. That means if you enter early, your chances of winning a prize go way up, so enter now!

At the end of the day on Friday I will draw from the pool of entries for the 1 oz. fine silver coin. There are two simple, easy, and quick ways to enter in the drawing:

1. Subscribe to The Humble Libertarian's free daily updates, which deliver a summary of all this blog's articles to your inbox each day. Subscribe by entering your e-mail below and hitting subscribe. You'll get an e-mail notification from Feedburner (my subscription service)- don't forget to open this e-mail and activate your subscription!

2. E-mail your friends, family, co-workers, etc. (be sure to carbon copy me!) to tell them about The Humble Libertarian with a link to this contest. You'll get one entry for each person you e-mail (limit of 5)- so the people who e-mail five of their friends will be the ones most likely to win the comic books or the silver coin!

The Legal Stuff

I will need a name and shipping address for winners so that my sponsor can ship you your prizes, and when I announce the winners on this blog, I will announce them by first name and state or city only.

I will be contacting you at the e-mail address you make available to me via either of the two methods of entry above. So if you subscribe to my daily updates or carbon copy me to e-mails you write to your friends about this blog and its contest- be sure to use an e-mail address where I can reach you to announce that you've won.

I reserve the right to amend the terms of the contest as necessary. I'm sure that won't happen (and so far hasn't for the four contests I've run here), but it never hurts to say so in writing just in case.

So what are you waiting for? Start racking up those entries!

Last month, I found that the people who won were the people who had the most entries. Take just five minutes out of your day today and you might just find a fine silver coin in your mailbox.

And now a word from our sponsor:

Obama keeps pushing the bipartisan religion of interventionism

Michael Scheuer is deadly accurate - foreign interventionism is a bipartisan religion (or disease, whichever you prefer). Too often, I believe, Americans think about Washington’s interventionism only as the actual physical intervention of U.S. military forces abroad in places where no U.S. interest is at risk. That activity certainly is intervention, but President Obama’s despicable decision last week to have his administration leak intelligence claiming that Israel has concluded an agreement with the government of Azerbaijan to allow its use of Azeri airfields for an air strike on Iran is just as much an unwarranted intervention by the United States government. Readers of this blog will know that I carry no brief for Israel, that I believe it is a state that is irrelevant to U.S. national interests, and one whose U.S.-citizen supporters are disloyal to America and involved in activities that compromise U.S. security and corrupt the U.S. political system. That said, Israel — l...

How Thorough a Brainwashing

Saw this on Facebook: Left this comment: It's more thorough of a wash job than that. They don't just believe they are not brainwashed, the question has never occurred to them and as long as they keep reading TIME and watching MTV, it's *impossible* for the question to occur to them. Oh brave new world, that has such people in it. EDIT: And one more thing-- don't ever stop considering what questions it is currently impossible to occur to you . This is what I've been thinking about a lot lately and I'm worried just how large and numerous my own blindspots are. The only solution is to be as intellectually curious as possible. To learn voraciously. To read things that challenge us. To read things that are hard for us to understand and then try to understand them. To expose ourselves to ideas far removed from our present culture and place on the timeline. Read old books. Read foreign books. Turn off the TV. You have already absorbed its biases and blindspots. ...

How To Gain More Twitter Followers

Earlier today, I wrote : "My goal is to write a book before the end of March. My goal is to spend no more than a week from start to publication, spending as much time as I need in order to get it done during that week. My goal is to give it away to you for free here on HumbleLibertarian.com. What's a goal you have? Something you may have been putting off for years? Something you could accomplish in one month if you were determined? If it's near-term enough of a goal, and specific enough of a goal, and you share it in the comments below, feel free to tell me how I can help you and I'll do whatever I can. If it's a libertarian / news / politics-related goal, my manner of help would be easy to determine. I could promote it, introduce you to someone via email, (etc.). If it's something apolitical like quit smoking cigarettes, start exercising, learn guitar, start a business, gain more Twitter followers, learn another language, eat a paleo diet, or...
