... the burner community in DFW is so tiny (and an hour's drive away) and most of our familiar burner friends live in other states, so having regular events with any burners is nearly non-existent. Most people here have never *ever* heard about BM and the others have some very rigid stereotypes in ...

Re: '
sooooo, any ideas for me to get a skirt at a reno thrift store? it'll be interesting as hell....what color fabric is best? Here in Dallas, I picked up two nice skirts at the Salvation Army. Loose, cotton ankle length with elastic waist. Mine are red patterns but there were a lot of choices there. I...

Re: @ thecryptofishist
It's like a tooth extraction, but without nitrous. Yes, I do know that if I put my mind to it, I could get nitrous. Oh hell yeah.. I was wondering if I could get dental work done while on the playa.. sounds like it might hurt a little that way though.. can I go with the anesthesia? I'm pussy when i...

I'm all for a swamp cooler meeting as well, although I'm far from you guys.

Re: unofficial map
This is great. As a first-timer, I was very disapointed that the placement list was not coming out in advancejes5199 wrote:I've made an unofficial map out of the unofficial camp list. Could you guys take a look and see if it's legible, and if I screwed anything up?

Re: Lasting change from experimental societies?
Also, has anyone ever read Walden Two by B.F.Skinner? It's fantastic, really reminds me of the ideals of BM put into use as a self sustaining society. BM is not really self-sustaining. A lot of resources are brought to the desert, consumed and a lot of garbage hauled away and dumped. I am trying to...

Solo is great
This is my first time, and I came very close to going solo. Having no responsiblity and not having to discuss or compromise on where to go and what to do is great. I've done it many times and there's always help nearby if you need it. In the end, I decided to join an established camp to be part of a...

How do you volunteer? I am camping alone, too, this year, not by plan, but its just how its turning out. The only scary thing is not having men/people-of-stature to help with building camp, pardon my sexism. Time to get self-reliant I guess. :D I (and many others) will be glad to help out. Just ask...

I, too, love the fact that this person has done her homework. You will do fine at BM. As far as shade goes, there will be plenty of camps (thousands?) with shade that will welcome you in during the day. I agree that you should go cheap, borrow the SUV, buy a cheap tent, forget shade structure. Don't...

Come to think of it though, that same year, I stood at gAASo and watched person after person have full orgasms right on the playa. Is there a fine line here? Is there a difference? It's definitely confusing if you bother to ponder it. Yes. You hit on it exactly. The elephant in the room is that wom...

I don't know if you can be overprepared for BM. I was a Boy Scout -- "Be Prepared." So I, too, have been studying everything I can find and gathering my stuff. I built a dome for shade, and just yesterday found a cool description of how to build a swamp cooler (desert A/C) with a 5 gallon bucket. I ...

You don't want to make any snap decisions based on something he may have said in the heat of the moment, but this should definitely be the start of constructive conversation about your dreams and desires and his dating preferences.

Dr. Jet, I agree -- I would not want a lot of North Texans around.
I'm very open to taking on a companion to share driving, gas and conversation.
