Bye for now y'all. I cannot handle this crap. This place has fucking tarbabied me - going to take a break. I'm disgusted with it all. The biggest mistake I've made (lately) was to stop lurking and start posting. I've lost all self-respect. I may be dumb, lazy and ugly, but you know what? I feel esp...

As long as drugs doesnt =alcohol then mine does all the time. As shocking as it may seem to some I have never done any drugs (cept booze) ever. I'll still with beer, wine and tekillya on the playa. Every once in a while I wonder what it would be like. But then I just think ya know its just not wort...

I took the Ranger to Montana a few years back, when there was no speed limit. She (also a 4.0 V6) ran right up to 107 mph, but that was it.

a Ranger 4x4 pickup hauling 4 people 3600 miles is a hell I wouldn't wish on anyone...those small jump seats just suck. I came alone in my Ranger 4x4 and only had to go 700+ miles. I love my truck like no other, but I seriously wonder how you were able to do 3600 miles with 4 people, and without an...

Blackrock Lover, I have just fallen madly in love with you.

For me, one of the real highlights of '03 was on Sunday when I finally got up close to the "rogue". I had been hearing that beast all over town for 2 years and never saw the damn thing. I'd hear it way over in that direction; then when I was over there, I'd hear it way over in the other direction. I...

Believe it or not, I've never been inside one. I may be the only non-coffee drinker left in the entire northwest.

I confess that this has turned into the most boring thread on the e-playa. C'mon, people! I fucking STOLE something and then ADMITTED it. Bragging about a sexual conquest, real or imagined, is not a confession, no matter how you phrase it. NOW, FESS UP!

> I'm sure they don't want to goof and alienate everyone, but a little experimentation would be a good thing, IMHO. You say that now, but look at what a huge fiasco changing the clock system to degrees was. People just rebelled. Or got lost. And complained and complained. I'll say it now and then. ...

Hooray for ECLIPTIC! I LOVE this thread. One of the reasons (hell, the main reason) I came to BurningMan was to get out of my (boring) routine and comfort zone. But now, after four straight years, I have to say I'm uncomfortably comfortable again. I know (almost) exactly what to expect. I'm surprise...

Not your fault, Digiman. I've enjoyed all your other posts, but I can't take it (her) anymore. I know you understand.

If anyone, and I mean anyone, mentions her name again on this board, I'm outta here and I ain't coming back. Ever. I know it will be no loss to anyone, but I have to take a stand somewhere.

This probably belongs in the Crush thread, but since were all in agreement on the subject of Lydia, I thought it would look good here: My life was wrapped around the circus. Her name was Lydia. I met her at the world's fair in 1900, marked down from 1940. Ah, Lydia. She was the most glorious creatur...

I've always admired (read: had a crush on) the Ice Queen in Camp Arctica. A couple of years ago, she had this white (wedding?) dress. Long sleeved and high collared, it was perfect for her. She just looked so incredibly regal, even in the dust.

I have to find some ways of dealing with this life I've made so I don't just pick up a hammer and obliterate it completely. Bullseye. See, the thing with me is I cope really well. "Naah," I say, "doesn't mean a thing. Let it go" and I move on. But that shit accumulates and, truthfully, I sometimes ...

I've got it bad. I'm feeling demoralized, undermotivated, and confused. Me too. And I so promised myself I wouldn't. On the night (actually, about 8 or 9 a.m. the morning after) of the burn, I did a one man conga line all the way from the GLOM (thanks guys!) to my home at 4:25 and Vision. We're tal...

Thanks Stormy! I will most definitely be in touch (ouch!) come spring.

Wow! I'm impressed, Stormy! They look beautiful. Your new one is fantastic, but I am really envious of your Man. Am I correct in assuming that you got these during the event (this year's and last year)?

I want one. I want one real bad. If you can, please give more details.

Hey Diazo,

Careful now, this sucker is comin' all the way from the Great Northwest. Hold your arms a little farther apart and bend your knees a little. Heeeer iiiiiit cooooooomes! SMOOOOOCH!

I've been waiting for over a year now for a chance to confess this, but until today I've been a confirmed lurker. Here goes... In 2002, on the Monday morning after the burn, I went for some ice and got roped into working at Arctica for 2 hours (by the very, very sweet and elegantly beautiful Ice Que...

i picked up a hitch hiker in reno on the way to the burn. he was from japan, making his way across the usa, and wanted to go to burningman. his english was not very good but better than my japanese. we talked, laughed and pointed most of the way down 447. we got to empire, and i realized that he di...
