I’m so sorry for your loss AntiM. I remember meeting MyLarry at a M+G years ago and being so touched by his quiet kindness.

Hey, hey!

Anti M's Home for Wayward Art is over at 635 and E this year.

I will be making a visit! I’ve told so many people about the Home for Wayward Art! One of my fav things at the burn.

The prodigal sister returns to her roots. 6 years and not a card, note or even a phone call to let us know you were ok? :shock: Welcome back Fufa. You'll have to wear a name badge so we recognize you. Some things have changed in BRC. Tickets now sell out in minutes. Lots of first timers each year, ...

Hello old friends! (My last log in to eplaya was 2013, boy does time ever fly) After various things in the default world kept me away, I am back, and I will be at TTITD again this year. I’m helping organize Camp No Boundaries, a small NYC based camp, and volunteering with Greeters. I’ve missed you! ...

HELLO! Bob told me to pop by and say hi. I am alive and well! Burning was not in the cards this year (and won't be next either) unfortunately, so I unplugged myself from eplaya to concentrate on other areas of my life. Since unplugging I finished my bachelor's, traveled Asia for 3 months, moved to N...

MOD NOTE: Fixed your broken link - MDMF007

Damn, now I want fancy barbie jewellery. Of course these ones cost an arm and a leg (haha....bad joke).

This photo made my night.

It was nice to meet you too MA!

Not for BM but, kind of interesting: I just removed the rotten carcass of a sea urchin from its shell with a pair of tweezers. Said sea urchin had been sitting in a sealed ice cream bucket full of dried coral, sea stars, and shells for the past FIFTEEN YEARS. After all this time, I now know why my c...

This happened last Tuesday but... BEST BORDER CROSSING back into Canadiana from a Burn ever. It was 2am so I was a little dazed and tired, but upon telling the border guard we had been at "The Burning Man Festival in Nevada". He asked: "How was it?" And after we answered he also asked "Was it your f...

I would say I occasionally suffer from acute normalcy. Nothing wrong with that.

Yup, spent 2 hours in an internet cafe reading all the news stories. Of course the owner noticed him. He got half-way across the world, just to get caught 'cause he's full of himself. The feet in British Columbia at least wash ashore every few years. All these dismembered bodies, in the same region,...

Come back from the burn to learn that MORE body parts are turning up in Canada. Pretty disturbing. :( From the week before I left: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/story/2012/08/27/toronto-body-parts-arrest.html And I come back to: http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/story/2012/09/05/toronto-...

I learned a new phrase in my abnormal psychology class today: "chronically normal".

I think it would be terrible to be chronically normal.

Buying, buying, buying. Packing, packing, packing. Bought: Baby wipes, goldfish, cheezies, pita chips, lotion, a new dual electric/propane powered food cooler as ours broke DAYS AGO, shelf stable starbucks frappuccino drinks, another tote box to hold food, 2 pairs of knee-high socks, a sweet shirt/d...

...smarter than they appear to us.

Hence why we are only the third smartest species on Earth.

Why do you think most Americans sleep on the job... It's the boring money. It's also how we get wacky economic theories--trying to make the money exciting... Have you talked to Dadura? Who is Dadura? I picked up American money at the bank today. I'll never get used to how boring your bills are. :P ...

YAY!

EEPS! Hope you find someone ASAP!

*crosses fingers tightly*

Hit up the dollarstore and hardware store last night. For $6 I got a water spritzer, 3 white board markers, a bag of zipties, a roll of red ribbon to cover up a skirt hem, a 30 pack of plastic shot glasses, and a length of thin braided utility cord for tying up things that are too big for zip ties, ...

Too bad we don't have a powerful enough computer to come up with the ultimate question..

My tarp is knitted aluminet, so dust can still go through it. I won't be worrying too much about keeping dust down. I went with the idea that because my shade walls are sloped on the sides, it might throw some of the wind over it if it hits the sides at a diagonal. Don't quote me on that though, it'...

Haha, funny how that happens...

I just printed out Badger's lovely diagram and spent 15 minutes working out the "best" camp shade orientations considering all these factors. Thanks so much for this! I did too. I ended up doing "Hmmm...this will work. Wait....no, this is better. Wait....if the sun is here, then should be here. Wai...

We used this style structure last year, with 30ft long arches. This year with a reduced camp size and after learning much at last year's burn, we are downsizing to 20ft long arches (middle height of 6ft, ground dimensions of 27ft X 10.5ft) Good things: -light to transport -we didn't have PVC raising...

Haha, it happens to the best of us. I researched the whole procedure like crazy before committing to it.
