Carnival of Cordite

(Found via Instacoffee) It's a great read and a great idea. Perhaps I will make a submission sometime. This particular item is beautiful:

"I would have used a shotgun, but I had just had new countertops done and I didn't want to tear up the kitchen." She opted for a .357 revolver to shoot an intruder who was caught by the cops laying in a yard a few blocks away complaining about abdominal pain.
Chuckle.

The only issue I have is with the name, Cordite being a British propellant suitable for use in the venerable H&H line but not lending itself well to American cartridges. But I suppose it is more alliterative than "Carnival of IMR-4350".

Hmm. Perhaps I should suggest "Carnival of the Balls.

Used a .357 so she wouldn't mess up a counter... heh. I like it.
