Wondering how long until MVs come with wifi jammers now.

As for shade, I don’t shade mine but I apply sunscreen to them twice a day and give them a sno-cone.

That keeps the bilge rats happy eh?

Because most people think vice grips are nipple clamps???

They are... In a pinch.

I treat Burning Man like I do any other camping trip.

I don't leave items of opportunity lying around for others to easily abscond with.

Running and screaming

So sorry DangerMouse. I just lost my dad and though it's getting easier, I don't ever see my life being the same as it was before. I f'in HATE cancer. Fuck Cancer. I'm sorry for your loss. Fuck Cancer has been my default since my close friend and mentor passed away back in 2012. In my moment of fru...

Thanks.

Between March of 2012 and January of 2015 I have lost 2 beloved greyhounds (bone cancer, vein cancer) 2 uncles (suicide, old age) 6 Friends (Cancer, Murder, Alcoholism, old age, heart attack, cancer) Oh, and RIP my marriage. I'm now in the middle of my second divorce. Sometimes life just keeps fucki...

Now you're just clouding the issue with facts!

Is there a way to update my shipping address once I know where I will be moving to? I don't yet know where I am moving, but I will be settled in my new home before June of 2015.

This board was incredibly helpful to me my first year. I never once felt like the posters on here wanted to expel me. They encouraged, advised and welcomed me. The information provided, the encouragement and the love made me feel welcome and that this impossible dream was attainable. Where the hell...

I got my tickets because I deserved them. The end.

You know you're burnier than thou when your burning man shed IS your art car, built out of 100% recycled/salvaged material. It is maintained in the off-season by the mechanically inclined burner that lives in it the other 51 weeks of the year. It is 100% powered by the tears of burners who claim tha...

I was going to go to Burning Man in 2014, then we lost a beloved pet, an uncle, and a friend was murdered over a 1 week period in Feburary of that year. The previous year we'd lost another beloved pet, my friend and mentor passed away from cancer, and my uncle killed himself. This January a friend o...

Got my tickets, got my vehicle pass. Baker's Decade tour to BRC in 2015 is a go!

I haven't been this giddy since I set foot on the playa back in 2004!

Does your rug really bring your camp together?

Burners vs Juggalos...

The idea of an active jammer or EMP-type weapon isnt such a good idea. Folks with pacemakers or insulin pumps, assuming they survived, would likely have a few choice words for you. I like leaf blowers. The dust and wind are natural elements. They just get a bit more targetted in the hands of the ri...

Something about throwing out the burner with the bath water?

This was my first connection to Burning man before I as able to attend the 2004 event. The last few weeks have been my connection again as I prepare once more to embark upon another visit for 2015. I was hoping for a nice even 10 year "reunion" tour of Black Rock City but it's looking more like it'l...

If only the DJs would get together during the week to collaborate on a group soundtrack that could be played leading up to and then following the fire conclave that the art cars could all rebroadcast via say BMIR at pre-adjusted reasonable soundlevels to provide some sort of energy/feedback loop on ...

So I'll tell ya what sucked... I was in Ballard (hip neighborhood just north of downtown Seattle) with the First Mate, to paint her son's new condo. Right at 9:30, just when the Man was gonna burn, the power went out all over the area. We had to finish painting with our iPhone LED lights... also, t...

Nope, I have no class

TPBM's art project for next year is a time machine that only takes you back to 2005.

I also stormed the beaches of Normanday... Last weekend.

TPBM was originally planning to build a Waffle House themed camp but suddenly became bacon intolerant.

I haven't been to the playa since '08. Wow, you're still around. I'd been watching the webcam broadcast to see if I'd find you wandering by. Only saw the bigger yacht show up (the one you posted a photo of with the playa cruiser in front of)... I haven't managed to make it back since my inaugural b...

The worst part for me was coming home and finding out my wife doesn't want to have anything to do with me anymore and wants me out of the house. :( Have no idea what I'm going to do...... It's your house too. If she wants out so much, let her move. I'm sorry man, your wife could absolutely hate the...

Damn, I just had a flashback.

I remember staring up at the ceiling in the Rainbow casino at the swimming/blinking neon reflection and thinking "Didn't I just leave this place?"

Sounds like an art installation.

I simply whip out some Deep Woods Off and proclaim: 'The power of Deet repells you!' ala Exorcist. That usually works pretty well.
