thanks for posting Bounce! So glad you and Flutter are alive, and well (relatively). yes, as needs arise, post, or let someone know and they can post. Understanding, it's tough to post and ask for help, and yet, people want to help.....so that. A few of us, who are fairly close, have "stuff", if we ...

I don’t know if any of you knew eplayan “Bounce530”, but he lived in Paradise. The news from him isn’t good at all.. Cap’n, cliffhanger? Is he OK? Alive? Family? I'll leave details to Bounce if he pops in, but yes, he's alive, sounds like family made it out, no word on pets. But, sounds like that's...

Similar to the "Kennewick Man" controversy, I was directly involved in. And I have friends involved in "Spirit Cave Man"......I don't buy the results of either or conclusions reached, which were influenced by political sentiment. The DNA should be what it is, then it has to be fit/matched with othe...

The world’s oldest natural mummy, the 10,000-year-old iconic skeleton known as the “Spirit Cave mummy”, was reburied this summer by the Fallon Paiute-Shoshone people in Nevada, after a DNA study showed it was in fact an ancestor of the tribe. On the study, the Falon Paiute-Shoshone tribe said "conf...

thought I'd revive this thread. There are a couple of earlier versions, too, if anyone is interested. IIRC "work in progress" and "work in progress, 2015" or some such. It's fun to see folks projects, on and off playa. So many people here are so talented. I decided to "re-groove" my M35 tires myself...

Hey there BVB!
good to seeya!
glad to hear you had a good burn. Sorry I missed you.

Since the wings have been chopped off, they should stand the 747 on end to make it look like a rocket or space shuttle.

this is why you are a "premier Burner"....

very nice! good hack, and you could make the "hook" part longer if you needed more leverage.
nothing better than a simple, easy thing a person can make on their own and not need electricity....
well done!

I met Bobbin (Drawing a Blank) for the first time at the budget truck in Reno, also met Jungle Smacks for the first time there too.

I wonder how much of all the complaining, comes from the narcissistic viewpoint of: "If I don't like it, it's not worthy", and to justify the attitude, people tear it apart related to minutiae , that would easily pass on things they "like" and therefore deem worthy? I'm just struggling, hearing so m...

ygmir

dead horse, indeed. but, some people just like to complain. Doesn't matter what it's about, it makes them feel important or smart or something, to say what others "did wrong" and how the complainers would do things differently, and because it's them, "better". Effort is real. Art, well, is very subj...

I have so many....and yet, what sticks with me, is I've made some wonderful friends there....people I would never have met (I'm pretty sure). This, is the best, for me.

... If the Big Imagination crew didn’t build what you’d have built, good. That’s what keeps things interesting. Exactly. Which is why I wonder how many wonderful, different, creative, pondering, thought provoking, contemplating, delighting, calming, stimulating things could have been created and br...

So why do they purposely kick up dust on people inside the fence who are abiding by the 10 mph whatever limit, while they, authoritarians in white trucks, kick up shit ton of dust while speeding, then cutting it, for no reason. My theory: those perimeter guys are assholes. I recommend a leaf blower...
