Bah, you're just jealous because you didnt think of the idea first. Not in the slightest. I just thought it was odd that for someone who was not content about his exclusion the previous year would want to again re-experience the same, or an analagous form of that exclusion just the same. Putting th...

Why not one of "Dicky," he's managed to spend two consecutive years in a "box." Given all the good experiences that he excluded himself from, I'd say that might qualify one for, "Sad and Angry."

Yes, no turning of The Man was allowed during the day; but at night, with a little effort, he could be turned until about 3am.

Sure, I guess by not doing so, both might leave you more suspicious about every bite that follows.

You know, you may be on to something there. Let a topless Barbara Bush lead the procession and I can guarantee your Yahoo problems will be solved.

Good topic and good advice as it's always best to be prepared when Murphy comes calling. But just in case FEMA and others are a bit too busy to save your heiny, here's one more link. Albeit a bit on the 'radical' side, but literally the A-Z on just about every survivalist skill subject you can think...

Ok, I have to admit, I did break down and took but one shot...

That's some well deserved recognition for what was one great feature on the playa we all enjoyed.

Hmmm...best you get immunized, that sounds communicable.

I hate to say it, but the well consumed old guard here in the States (i.e. Bud, Miller, Coors, and shall I even mention, Schlitz, Schaffer, Old Milwaukee, Pabst, etc - that somehow still manages to find a market) is nothing to brag about either. Thank the beer gods for the introduction of superior m...

I heard it somewhere that these two were being chosen as the art curators for the event...

Alas, the suggestion of a potentially viable solution has emerged! Quick, someone toss a flame before we get totally off track.

Of course, thanks Playasnake...

[Editor in Chief's Office] "That's it Kitty, inconsistencies like that will not be tolerated at the AP, best you move on to the National Enquirer."

Because Bass, as a health care professional, it is my job to prevent stroke not cause it. :) No worries Kinetic, her journalistic prose was spot on. I did a Google check when she first posted it as I had almost bitten when encountering in another post that there was an accident that day (minor by co...

Ummmm...I guess you missed the post where Steel Kitty mentioned she concocted the whole "AP" story in an attempt to make a point. But her post might be of use afterall if something constructive actually comes out of this discussion other than flames back and forth,. Fortunately, 35 people have not y...

3 pages of postings and no end in sight? That must have been some cologne!

Olivia, I think you missed what Mars was trying to ask. To answer you Mars, as a guy, I'm not sure exactly what it is about a woman's breasts, legs, derriere, lips, curves, (add whatever else may do it for you here), that does it as it isn't necessarily the same combination for every guy, but know t...

Kinetic IV, I'd be happy to gift you one of the 30,000 copies I picked out of that box.

If you're talking about help with replacing tp, sanitizer, evangelizing, 4 hours is certainly doable, I'll e-mail you at the address provided.

Wow, that's unfortunate. I'm a new burner as of this year, but did my homework in reading and bringing with me, a copy of the Survival Guide in addition to a lot of other "preparatory reading" so as not to get caught with my pants down (no pun intended). I'm sorry to hear you ended up being short of...

Incredible prints, thank you for sharing!

I'd say I could raise my hand up with the exception being Thurs night in spite of my haste and well intentioned effort to make it back in time. Much to my surprise, there were too many well stocked bars present with the last being located too far away from salvation with me on foot. But, I did let m...

Good, I look forward to following this issue as the facts play out.

Although DallasP has perhaps the subtlety of a hefty sledgehammer, and I wouldn't necessarily run out and nominate him as Ambassador of Goodwill, I do see his point in that judging the attitudes of those who failed to stop as, "ungrateful, self-interested cretins" is about as presumptuous as DallasP...

Wow, that's really unfortunate if that one individual's statement in fact mirrors the views of those at BMorg. If so, and that is the intention behind this filming, then all the BMorg preaching to the contrary in the past, is just that, a thing of the past. That does not bode well for them in their ...

Btw, I stopped by your camp once but seemed to have caught it at a quiet hour. Excellent job on your setup. I know, I know, with that admission, I'm fucking doomed!

As a Lamplighter lifter, I made my way down 3:00 towards the Apokiliptika camp with a full kerosene lantern at the ready, but just when the moment of opportunity struck, I found myself strangely entranced by the signage, trying to decipher the many Cyrillic markings. That was some of the worst Russi...

I may be new to this experience, but I feel invested just the same in preserving the spirit of this one of a kind event. What I fail to grasp, and find to be especially disturbing, is the potential for hypocrisy on the part of BMORG who it seems is selectively choosing to circumvent its own standard...

Thanks guys, but I had meant that remark to be more of a joke than a description of a real nuissance (where's the damn smiley when you need one) Aha!

But, I do appreciate the advice once again, and now I'm fully prepared for next year, until that is, Murphy comes to visit.

Not sure if it was mentioned yet, but during the night, the playa definitely had the feel of "Blade Runner," an observation a friend of mine had made too. Lots of neon and creative lighting in a dense, city-like setting, odd shadowing and sounds, and bicycles whizing by with costumed riders.
