Hmmm, why would you find nudity and whatnot out of place in rural Nevada? After all, Ric writes of your initial meeting: http://eplaya.burningman.org/viewtopic.php?p=42299&highlight=#42299 Actually, I did not believe it then and I do not believe it now. You, or you all (the ah, Maia personality seem...

Thought about it for a bit. If it happened while the Man was burning, there would be live feeds from the internet and news orgs., all hell would break loose here on earth. Everything from new cults (a job opportunity for those who could not make it or left early!) to congressional hearings. As for h...

Here you go: Funnels and other things: http://www.travelmateinfo.com/page002.html How to pee standing up: http://www.restrooms.org/standing.html I don't know if it is still hanging around but standing up URL was on the Burning Man site some years ago. Amazing what you can learn getting ready to go t...

The absolutly first thought that came to me was 'think about how happy BBR would be".

I need to think about the rest of it.

My almost ex dragged me to two of these things years ago. Both pitches she was actually interested in until downer-boy -- moi, pointed out the true economics of the matter. One was a time share in Ocean City, with the reward being a free weekend at a later date. The other was land in a planned commu...

everclear, hummm. I will be visiting my parents in El Paso before Burning Man, now I've just got to bring a bottle of pureo. 99.9% pure ethel alcohol, at least I think it is, nobody ever died. Granted, the next day some of them wished they had.

Most of you are high minded little sods, I have not thought of a role model for myself or anyone in years. As a teen I personally wanted to grow up and become W.C Fields.

Quick stupid question time. Is Hushville actually quiet? Or are they on the Esplanade next to loud camps? Where can I get info about them? Hushville is near the center of things but far enough from the really noisy camps that it is kinda quite. In '02 it was next to Kidsville and 200 to 300 meters ...

Hell no, it was one of those Murry/Huffy/Kmart bikes, a steam roller could not damage it. Granted I tried bike dancing with the Space Cowboys and ended up having to hit the freewheel with a hammer to get it working again. I bought it for $30 in centeral CA and spent about 3 hours getting it half-ass...

For my first Burn I was visiting relatives in CA and one of my aunts said, "Oh why don't you just take the motorhome." 35 feet+, solar on the roof and a windmill, also very clean and their pride and joy. Thanks, no. Now if my cousin had offered his class C that looked like he had been raising monkey...

I have heard that if your bike is decorated it is much less likely to be borrowed- thoughts? In '02 I hooked up with some folks at Iluimnaughty (sp) and left my bike, unlocked. That was about 1 or 2 AM, at about 10 AM or so I treked back to see if it was still there, I was somewhat surprised that i...

I have not decided where I will camp this year, unless I am mistaken I have several options, though tonight I am leaning towards Hushville and vistiting around. In any case, if there is an eplaya camp or eplaya meet and greet I will show up (playa time) and bring a large bottle of booze and maybe so...

Ring,

Very good.

We have got to try and meet up.

mindfunk13, The problem is that you come off as if women can be bought. This culture is much more woman oriented than that, part of it is a hold over from the women's movement and part of it is derived from the basic fact that there is about 1 woman for every 2 men at Burning Man. Piled on top of th...

Only the groom is congradulated (for his wonderful catch), brides get "Best wishes' something of that sort. Are his and her sarongs just too darn silly? Can we commendere an art piece that speaks to us? Is there anything (besides playa dust) that can be tossed in the air that wont turn instantly int...

move out West, breathe some clean air, sit with the other rednecks in the Owl Club in some dusty town On the whole I would rather be dead; indeed if I could tell the difference. Right now I actually live in Northern VA, come next June the kid is out of high school and I am moving into the city. In ...

Sorry about the last posting,went over the top there. I was working from home and dealing with a 17 year old whose attitudes greatly remind me of BBR.

I really don't know why I do this. Don't try to teach a pig to sing, it wastes your time and this case the pig enjoys it. Silver, you are wrong. I figured at one time that the burning cultist were a bunch of left or liberal leaning folk. It is astonishing that you accept and advocate censorship. Nop...

Tank. my initial postings were an effort to create some interest in anti Sempra. Ya'lls peculiar BBS navel lint contemplation soon "dissed" that possibility. Bull, your first postings started the Treasure Island thread and mentioned Sempra not at all. My first response to you was an honest one, rep...

Well, I have never had my hair waist length I do tend to keep it just past my shoulder blades. I simply brushed it out several times a day and washed it every day (there is a shower thread around here somewhere). I had no problems, as for dreads, that is never a worry for my type of hair. A lot of p...

Damn, all this about Homeland Defense and NSA, its a wonder they did not just drag me off when they (Homeland Defense) were in my office a week or two ago. I doubt they could have missed the BM calendar or the BM screen saver or the ticket confermation stuck on my wall. Actually I know they saw the ...

I can't help myself. Ric, 18 rounds for one guy? Two words: shot placement. Try it this way: tap 'em three times, if he is still up re-sight and three more, if he is still up he has a vest on so three times for a t-shirt shot, if he is still up run like a stripe assed ape because you suck with a fir...

Well, they guy's certainly got something up his ass, and it doesn't seem like it's happy to be there.

I have been collecting bits of Burner 'wit and wisdom' for a while now, this just got added to the list.

Thank you.

Size, I knew that BRC covered a lot of ground but being there and experiencing it is another matter. Things going on, I would be headed to something on the schedule and be sidetracked by a seemingly impromptu something and suddenly it would be two hours later. I gave up on plans by Tuesday. People, ...

So what did original wife and kids do to deserve death? Or is it just the old "Get in the way of a Diety's wager" clause? Hey, read the old testament, it is just chock full of somebody getting it in the ear when god gets in a snit or is just playfull. The poor buggers that were living in the Promis...

Short and sweet, after he had lost everything and was reduced to living on or in the dump scraping his open sores with pot shards he still kept his faith and god rewarded him seven fold. That is, god healed him up, and provided a new wife(wives), new kids, shitload of sheep or goats and what not. No...

Playa Del Fuego is also held in the Spring on Memorial day weekend. I have not been as active as I normally am but hope to get back to it soon. A fair number of people come down from NYC and New York state.

Is that because marraiges are a bad thing, or because people are unwilling to make things work anymore? People change, circumstances change and people can get sick and tired of working for little or no return. Divorcing after 8 wonderful years of marriage, the problem is that I was married for 23 y...

Cover 'em up, let 'em out, strap 'em down; unless you are built really weird no one will notice one way or the other. Joking aside, I would say that of the women I know that go to Burning Man a good 35 to 40% have never run around topless and this is fairly laid back crowd. No body will say anything...
