Welcome to the Friday, March 21, 2008 edition of On the Moneyed Midways, your one stop in the blogosphere to find the best posts contributed to the best of the week's past business and money-related blog carnivals!

And because we're looking forward to a long weekend ourselves, we'll keep the commentary just as short so we can get right to it - keep scrolling down for the best posts of the week that was:
