I'm not sure the fist will have much of an impact...........



...too big of an asshole.

Dear Eric,

Have you ever been so bored you wrote something just to have something to read?



This post excluded

Do you mean this thread specifically?

I like pizza but my favorite place to eat is at a place in Austin. Barley swine. The stallion is the original cheapskate but he will volunteer to take me there. Small plate with wine or beer pairings. Every single bite is the best thing I have ever eaten. There's this little joint near me, they don...

Oh Lordie, here we go again


I really shouldn't bitch, I love the smell of drama in the morning even if it is nonsensical crap that no one gives a shit about.

Any fortification?

If the bitchin is over for this year I'm going to take a nap..... I'll see you all in Jan/Feb.

Day two : http://blog.burningman.com/2015/09/tenp ... -buzzkill/

Not pretty.

I'm green but I'm happier that the birgin camps around me also did well. Some others..... not so much.

I saw it fall to the playa when you tripped over the carelessly left bike in a dust storm.

I called after you.

You ignored me.

I feel fine.

Do you have rights if you are breaking the law?

Wait............whzt?

We live in remarkable times - when else could you receive congratulations for having the willpower and discipline to have surgery to correct having neither?

What's scary to me are the contrived reasons for pull over and the fucking dogs -which as a species I love - when they are forced to do crappy work - not so much (I guess the same could be said about most LEOs - but the human ones have a choice about what they do and how they conduct themselves).. I...

Segway


Where's the kickstarter for the playa cliff?

Am I the only one that thinks the greater sin is how they were short-changed at birth? Quite the gyp.

Back on the other end of things, I had a great conversation with a cool BLM officer this year who told me that the best place to do something shady on the playa is inside a porto-potty. Good to know, I guess? The other option that was suggested as having an "expectation of privacy" was an RV (NOW w...

I had no interactions with the law, and hardly saw them during the burn, which led me to think that all the talk before the burn was just scare tactics. However, now that the arrest numbers are out, I see that they were serious about upping their numbers. Last year, on the gravel, while waiting for...

Er, okay........lots of very important people, pro production values, some potentially moopy situations, very staged but nice (in an over-produced Broadway show way).....but not the Burning Man I go to, much less, would want to.

According to this "more than 40 arrests" this year. FWIW (not much, I know)

Yeah, and I recall a Ranger shooing away burners with the all to ubiquitous cell phones saying "this is not something we want to advertise" but, honestly, I'm not 100% sure it wasn't a dream or something like that.

Not to be a contrarian, after all BM is all about excess, but I've never had an issue with anchoring my MH and the tent underneath it with these pieces of crap for five years running (technically 5 of the last 6). Granted they are no longer smooth (rust and corrosion) due to lack of cleaning but I c...

Continuing the bell curve, this year I deliberately pared down in an effort to limit the amount of crap I lug from one end of the country to the other (solo camper). I left behind the camping stove, the pots and pans, and, inadvertently, the utensils which led me to use my pocketknife (and when that...

Kudo's to the burner who did the BLM VIP freezer chock full of Choco Taco boxes on the playa.

I laughed when I saw it and doubly so when I opened it knowing what I would find.

I could have done without the book of testimonials which, to me, only served to temper the joke.

While you're at it remind your friends they can also forget about the fucking things for a week and be all the better for it.

in about 10 minutes I'll be putting the key in the ignition.

I've got 5 days to think about what i may have forgotten and rectify.

In the immortal words of Alvin Lee .......

You're right... like a fucking hole in the head....and I've a hunch you could use a little humility as well.

I did it again, used the ticking cloak as motivation for getting my stuff together. I made some headway and in my remaining day off I will have to sort the clothing situation and pack the car. Today I: Upgraded my AAA to PLUS Pre-programmed all my stops on the GPS Filled the tank and spare diesel co...

I was there that year as well, hard to forget that milk cartoon/cereal bowl MV across from us. To OP: Orphans are a great group, I'm grateful to have had the security of a (mostly) newcomer group. But what I'm most grateful for was gaining the knowledge that I could do it alone and make a new experi...

(I usually use rope, duct tape, solid gauge electric wire, faith and spit for all my fixin's and repairs). Tell me about it, I'm a real hack, I have more ideas than I have skills, talent or experience. In my(this) case, it was a coconut, BBQ tongs, pipe hanger, pipe clamps, and a wheel. Inspired by...

FWIW, It generally pays to wait, I think I paid $19 last year at the Sands on a Sunday with the email deal. This year it's $25 Sun - Thur and $55 Fri and Sat in August BUT it comes with a bucket of 5 beers served poolside. Group Code BUCKET815 That said, there are only a couple of rooms left at this...

How big is your cargo liner? Do you keep it out or hide it away during the day? Post a photo of the patina? Approx the size of a Legacy Wagon's payload area. It sits in front of my MH the narrow lip really isn't conducive to moving it around until some of the GW dissipates. usually by mid afternoon...
