Happy Birthday to Gus!

By Diana Hsieh @ 11:50 AM

Congratulations to Rational Jenn and her husband Brendan on the birth of their son, Sean Riordan Casey (aka "Gus")!

Jenn has done a great job of creating and maintaining the very active and like-clockwork Objectivist Roundup, a blog carnival highlighting the best posts from Objectivist bloggers each week. She created it shortly after I created my OBloggers mailing list.

I've not linked to these weekly carnivals, for the silly reason that I've not gotten in the habit. I'll try do so from here on out, however. (In fact, I'm sure to do it from here on out, as I just added it as a recurring Thursday task to Entourage. Thanks again, GTD!) You can find the full list of past carnivals from this page. (Just click on "past carnivals".) Last week's carnival can be found at The Crucible & Column.

Ah, but all of that is of minor importance compared to the health of mom and baby! Congratulations again to Jenn and Brendan -- and little Gus!

Thank you so much for the well wishes! We are all doing very well.

And a minor point of correction regarding the carnival--Kim of Kim's Play Place is actually the creator of the carnival, starting it up about a year ago! Can you believe it's almost been a year? Kim handed the administration of it off to me last September or so due to other priorities. I was (and am) happy to keep it going. I think it's a great way to promote Objectivism in a positive manner, to get that cultural change that Dr. Brook has spoken about often. I encourage everyone to spread the word about the Objectivist Round Up, linking to it, participating in it, hosting it, etc. I think we've come quite a long way in a year--the quality and quantity of our posts has improved, and I can't wait to see what another year will bring!
