I've been talking to Bounce and Flutter, They've lost everything as have their families. They all lived in Paradise. They're all ok but all they have is the shirts on their backs. Literally........:cry: :cry: Bounce is currently looking for an RV they can rent, he has secured a space with hookups.

I don't have a problem with people/camps having more money than me. If you want to bring out your million dollar RV's and have lavish accommodations, then by all means as long as you do it yourself. What I take issue with is hiring a crew to do it all for you. That is commodification. If these uber ...

I enjoyed reading that as well. Nice job!

That first stage stabilizer thing is pretty cool. Keeps the lag straight while getting it started.
Always good to have a backup plan when you're on the Playa.

Sock. Final answer.

I like cheese.

I had 5 bars of LTE service Friday of build week and I used it to coordinate the setup crew and other people coming in. Data slowed and then finally stopped flowing Sunday morning and that's when I put my phone in airplane mode and just used it as a camera for the rest of the week. I love airplane m...

I went with a 250 CFM fan this year and had great results although the temps weren't too bad. I didn't really need to use it much. The bigger fan draws 3 amps on it's own but I didn't have any problems with my 3 year old marine battery and a 25 watt solar panel keeping it charged. I did take one aft...

I left Tuesday about 1:30pm and only had a 30 min wait to hit pavement. Everything was smooth through Gerlach and then we hit the backup caused by the fire on 447. That took about 3 hours to get through and when we finally got to the scene of the fire, it had been caused by an RV that had lost it's ...

Does anyone know why the rest stops were closed? I shudder to think it was because the burners are so messy. Rest stops are NOT a trash dump.

They were closed due to the fires in that area. Several off-ramps along there were closed as well.

There are plenty of laws to keep LE from stepping on our rights but in the field, the cops don't care about the law or whether your case gets dismissed or not. They routinely break the law all the time and you cannot argue law with a cop on the side of the road. If you get pulled over, valid reason ...

Printed up return address stickers to put on everything for lost and found, and missing dog signs, just in case the unforeseeable occurs. PSX_20180815_164357.jpg How did you get a dog permit?

You can always go with a thicker (smaller gauge) wire. It's going to a thinner (larger gauge) wire that can cause issues.

Going from 14 gauge to 12 gauge will be fine.

Your WAP is good for anytime on or after the date printed on it. Gayte is open 24 hours so if you have a Saturday WAP, it's good from Saturday morning at 12:00am till the gates open.

....... We welcome the stranger, but that doesn't mean we have to like them, nor they us, and that's alright.

Perfectly said AntiM! Mind if I steal that sig?

I had a hard time finding this.

And I can confirm that both of us are much uglier in person than on EPlaya, but we both kno we gonna look this good for a long time! :) Make some kind of spectacle, Crash Worship style if any of you remember that far back. Swell meeting you TT. Burn hard. It was nice meeting you too Token. You look...

Ok, the vintage 2004 two buck chuck plus two other bottles of "wine" are in hand and will make it to the MnG! Tokens gift to ePlaya. Guaranteed to have been stored for way too long at inappropriate temperatures and rolled around the floorboard of my pickup for the next week.

Ok, it looks like we have the issue sorted. The bottle WILL make it to the MnG.

Thank you. I submitted the name of a good friend that passed away earlier this year. He was the one that introduced me to Burning Man and had been going since the 90's.

Miss you buddy....I'll see you at the temple....

Captain, I was going to "borrow" your land yacht while you were in Hawaii to drive them around. I was going to have it cleaned and back in your driveway before you got home.

Let’s go on a 3 hour tour!

I'm in! Wench, you coming?

Spacetime. One of the main reasons I go is because the ticket promised that I may die. What better place? Now get off my lawn. This! So much this...... If I get so injured that I need to be flown out, just toss me on a pile to be burned. I can think of much worse places to die. And......"Get off my...

Damn, sorry to hear that. Doctors can do a lot of amazing things these days, Get better soon!

Oh Figs, you gone lost Macgyver points on that one! Every evil genius knows you coil cords in a figure 8 so it don’t twist up, never in a loop !!! Is one end cap just friction set so you can rotate it and take your cord off without unspooling? Good stuff. This is the best way to store them cords. N...

If he's going to break up with you for going to Burning Man, he's got issues and you don't need that shit in your life.

If you have a hard ticket and a vehicle pass, you're good to go. Pack your truck with a bunch of water and food for a week and have some fun!
