Don't forget to bring shot glasses for Bounce! I'll have a card to sign and will pack them up to be mailed in Reno.

Oh yay (((Lucky))) thanks!!!

Hey, anybody who ever got a gift from Bounce, listen up: Bounce lost his whole collection of Burning Man shot glasses when his home was destroyed in the Camp Fire last November. :cry: If you have any extra Burning Man shot glasses laying around :D :D :D please bring so I can mail them to him. Though...

Thanks very much. How about a toy metal soldier and costume jewelry? Should be okay. I left a two-foot high bride doll once, lots of little metal & costumery there, people going by just cried. Fair warning: participants come out to sift the ashes when they cool, to make mournful mementos or whateve...

This ^^^ is so funny, thanks Elorrum!!!

It's early evening here but I am working and I need

Dewalt goggles fit nicely over my glasses.

This. They fit over my glasses and over the sunglasses that fit over my glasses. And you can decorate them any way you want. I have been wearing the same pair of blinged-up Dewalts since 2011.

The Sands has put up some big art on their property this year. The giant Chinese warrior is on front of the pool and a bigger sculpture is over on the Mel’s Diner side. I can’t remember the name of it but it lights up at night and looks like big sugar cubes. Across the street are a couple of more p...

Pleading guilty to interweb necromancy here but I really want to object to this. The skin around the would is going to have sweat and playa dust which is not sterile and will irritate the wound with salts. Therefore some single use 100ml sterile water for wound irrigation and something to wipe it of...

MDF. You just made my day. YES! Sunday the 18th. My girlfriend and I will spend the night and leave for the playa early Monday morning. She's never been to Reno so we can tour. Lunch? Dinner? Sightsee? I love you. Can't wait. Dinner. I love you. I ONLY EVER WEAR RATTY CLOTHES ANYMORE 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

IIRC, always lots of booze at this thing. Maybe Elorrum & I will bring some interesting soft drinks.

I still need to get the date of placement starting. That's when we arrive for work. I can't wait.

Ratty do you know yet? I will be there the 18th & 19th of August. Hope to see you!!!

***Smooches*** to Doc Pyro for setting this up again!

This might be a case where the heading writer summarized a bit too much, since the detailed text could be read as indicating it'll only be for camps that choose to be listed. (Emphasis below is mine.) This year the WhatWhereWhen printed guide will include a short, 100-character interactivity descri...

Merry Merry Happy Happy ((((hugs)))) to all, and extra-special best hopes & wishes for the New Year

((((((((((AntiM)))))))))

I am working today stay healthy!!!

I also maintain that the best way to not produce your 40lbs of CO2 per gas tank on your way to Burning Man is to not attend at all. BBadger this is why I heart you so hard. OP should def not attend. Does nobody else care about the awesome stickers they hand out at Greeters? The stickers you can onl...

... create some sort of memorial somewhere in the bar...

I second that emotion.

It was a very fast Burn, Savannah, very well done and very tightly controlled. I had a great view from inside the perimeter (between the Conclaves and the Sandmen) on one of the EMS teams patrolling inside just in case... and randomly assigned to the sector where my son Puppy and his bride were with...

What a dear, dear friend we have lost. :cry: And what a terrifyingly fast ride he had through the hell that is cancer. :shock: "What? what? what? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I remember that beard-bow, that smile, that hard-working skill and willingness to do anything, and his...

Friendly warning: pack a map if you want to, but don't rely on it, as United Site Services sometimes has to move the portos (at request of the Health Department!) in order to meet sanitary requirements. Last year they removed 2 banks of portos from the inner playa, fuuuuuuuuck, on the Thursday of Bu...

HI MDF. awe, that's nice of you to say. yeah I'll miss chasing hippies, for sure! and yeah, it'd be fun to meet up post Burn in Reno! I know some years there are many folks who spend a few days in Reno after. I'll see if I can get Speedbump or someone to haul your cook stove wood out, if you still ...

We'll miss you (((Yggy))) but I'm sure the fence-jumpers will not. :shock: And maybe we can meet up in Reno, post-Burn? I will be there until the 10th or so; since Puppy decided to get married on the 12th, no sense in me flying back and forth and back in a week, sheesh... * pours an extra drink at t...

((((Sham)))) I hope it's not too late to thank you for the new Bar and to donate some dust to the decorations. 8) (((((((((((Ratty)))))))))))) I have been speaking your name all over DC, explaining my clothes as "start with what you have..." * pours a shot in honor of The Hat * * wanders off looking...

Gosh, Figjam.

I am having playa anxiety dreams already.

I miss you (((Figjam))). Are you Burning this year?

Ratty, you don't need to finish the edges of aluminet, in fact that will reduce its effectiveness. When untrimmed it will stretch and rebound without MOOPing at all. I have untrimmed aluminet that's been to 7 Burns and is still intact. Shark-Bite clip-on grommets work really well with aluminet and c...

I'll be bringing the "big Kahuna" aid bag to next year's event. gvi Yay!!! We need all the help we can get. Double Karma points if you bring single-use eye drops, but only if you make your hapless victim admit that they left their goggles back in camp because: Shiny make-up is so awesome!!! Quadrup...

*sets a shaker of Green Hat martinis on the Bar*

DGS tickets? Oh aren't you sweet. Yes, indeed, and thank you so much. See you in the dust.

Dude, now I want stickers of this shark-ridin superhero ^^^^^ to plaster all over DC

Thanks for the whiskey, (((BVB))) and the coffee to pour it into, (((Yggy)))

Had a great visit with Misa, all over DC.

So, what do all y'all Nevadians think of this so far? Is it working out well for the general citizenry? Any problems or benefits that weren't anticipated?

Let me add my congrats and a big (((((((((((HUG)))))))))))

Babies are great. So interesting to watch them unfold into people!
