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.

Barack Obama Tattoos

With Barack Obama's approval ratings still at a solid 62%, I became suddenly curious to know how popular the 44th U.S. President really is. Are people so enamoured with President Obama that I could do a quick Google search and turn up some photos of people with permanent tattoos of Obama inked into their very skin? Oh yeah. It's that bad. Below are ten examples of Barack Obama tattoos (some decent, some pretty awful). PS: As a control, I decided to Google "bush tattoos." I found only two examples in the first couple pages, and they were decidedly anti-Bush. I also learned to never, ever Google "bush tattoos" again. Seriously. Don't. There are some gross tattoos out there. In the interests of full disclosure, I must admit that I am not a fan of President Obama . But I've got to say that the tattoos above aren't nearly as bad as this: Editor's note: The pictures are linked to their respective sources. To view the source pages, simply click

Legal Marijuana On The Michigan Ballot for 2018

A Michigan ballot initiative to legalize recreational marijuana received enough valid signatures to qualify for a vote in November. When the required number of ballot signatures was certified by the State Board of Canvassers, the 4-0 decision of the board was met by cheers from supporters of the initiative who were present, the Detroit Free Press reports . Rick Thompson, a board member of the Michigan National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), put this ballot initiative in perspective as a matter of the State of Michigan safeguarding its own sovereignty and protecting its own citizens from an intrusive federal policy: "The people of Michigan deserve this. They earned it. We've faced many trials and tribulations. We've had so many stop and go signs from the federal government. That's why states have to take the reins on the issue and really be the crucibles of democracy that they've always been intended to be." Indeed the last time

What I did on the ten year anniversary of 9-11

During my brief trip to Korea, on the ten year anniversary of 9-11, I did exactly what the terrorists didn't want me to do: I lived without anxiety. I lived without regrets. I lived without fear. I let nothing intimidate me. I let my soul be still. I laughed with my friends. I tried something new. I marveled at nature. I sang at the top of my lungs... badly. My heart was at ease, because I spent all day knowing that for me, this day and every one that preceded it for the last decade was not about the terrorists, but about loving my life, the world I live it in, and the people with whom I am so lucky to share this world. The best memorial I could offer for so many thousands murdered ten years ago, was to ignore their murderers, live without terror in my heart, and in its place let blossom joy.
