worth a shot... about 10" x 20".... aluminum with a handle and keyhole on it. .... probably flew off during Exadus Monday. Quite hard to replace

ummm just checked back on this after a week of keeping up on emails and nastiness on tribe on this subject. My main objective was just to get the story out there for people who were wondering what happen since Decompression. I must admit one of the first leads in the case came from an e-playa reply ...

As of this morning the perp is in custody in Seattle. He can make bail and appear at the hearing in Lovelock Nev. on his own or be extradited. Not really sure how I feel about it right now....stunned?....There is no particular joy or feeling of revenge, just some relief I guess. It has been a long n...

Raised Catholic, I am no stranger to guilt. Your post, notthat1, rang true for me too with a big guilty slather on top for not being more productive at work because of it. The cherry on top is that I'm leaving on another 10 day vacation on Tuesday. I've never experienced a true Autumn before so I'm...

[quote="heat"]flackmaster - thanks for that note. Even you had an accident, eh! (easy,kiddin around here). I guess you are the master of flack - sure got me going! quote] yeah well, it was an "assisted" accident...sorta like "assisted suicide?" ...but I figured I have already been posting about that...

I find it interesting that there is such an undercurrent of unkindness in many of the replies. What happened to me was purely an accident, a 2 second trip-and-fall that was not preicipitated by alcohol, drugs, lack of fitness or inexperience. It. Was. An. ACCIDENT. remember that this E-playa and no...

Just a guess.. if you had been injured seriously enough to be taken to Reno in an ambulance for xrays etc, you may have gotten crutches from the hospital there. oddly enough, most hospitals don't issue crutches. They generally tell you buy or rent them at the pharmacy. It would seem a resonable req...

yeah gee four weeks ago tonight I was assaulted by some violent asshole who got away with a $50 bike that he just ditched somewhere anyway. I have a busted left elbow with 13 screws in it and yesterday I was finally able to tie my shoes by myself. sorry to be a downer, but the subject line asked.......

Our van was vanadalized and on Friday night I was assaulted. Because we had some recreation stuff with us, I was hesitant to report anything. . please, please, please report this or, if it is too late, post some details. It might be the same guy. If not it is still important to know that this stuff...

Burning Man is always too much to consume. You need to somehow sort out the parts you like and avoid the parts that are a buzz kill. I've gone eight years and have modified my habits a lot to fit my expectations and disposition. I don't go out much after midnight anymore, I watch the burn from a dis...

though i'm getting a lot off mileage out of the clown aspect of this tradgety, please know that it just a coping mechanism. i really don't want every clown to be suspect next year though it would give my poor old midwest parents a heart attack to hear me say it, NAMBLA and OUCHY are two of the nices...

i have been trying to follow threads on e-playa and tribe about various criminal activity and general bad experiences this year. I'm the guy who was assaulted just for a $50 bike. My elbow was badly broken in the process and i have 13 screws in there that i will carry around as literal baggage along...

okay maybe not clowns; what about young men?; what about anyone in the dark?

assault lends itself to pejoratives -- otherwise you would be afraid of everyone. everywhere, all the time

it doesn't have to be all big, expensive and on the center playa...look on the side streets and in the cafe. i have been doing my goofy little Twinkie Henge thing for five years; it cost about $10 and people seem to love it.

It is hard to keep up with all the email especially with one hand but wanted something to come from the horse's mouth. yes the perp has come forward, but i cannot give any details at this time. in exchange for one crazy i have had literally hundreds of warm responses and people in the community who ...

i certainly don't blame all clowns anymore than all people who drink. i'm sure the perp did not go out that night with the intent to do the damage he did but then neither do drunk drivers, but the grim reality is i just got out of surgery yesterday with 13 screws and 2 metalk plates in my elbow. the...

yes i can confirm this but i will not post any details till this is all really over

the outpouring of sympathy anf shared outrage has been tremendous (see post '04 assault witnesses? for details) I want to emphasize that this was not an accident or a prank...since my first post the diagnosis is reconstructive elbow surgery including screws and metal plates costing more than $5K...i...

Okay I know there is little chance that the person will get caught or that I will recover my property but it will help my healing process to try. About 11 pm sat after the burn I was bike jacked. I was riding alone in a dark area between the remains of the man and the Temple when male about 5'10" 18...

I want to gift away about 50 pounds ( brewed ) of coffee this year. Do I need to get a food handler's license and if so how do I proceed? I've looked all over the BM site and can't find anything...
