I'm from the Antenna Group and this will be my 3rd burn. My boss, Melody Haller, is a wonderful woman. I think you all should save your judgments for August and the playa. So saying that you've got 3 burns under your belt is supposed to give some kind of street cred--that you're some kind of vetera...

I just found out. First Scott and now this? Shit. Fuck, this is bad. All I can think of is this: O Fortuna, velut Luna statu variabilis, semper crescis aut decrescis; vita detestabilis nunc obdurat et tunc curat ludo mentis aciem; egestatem, potestatem, dissolvit ut glaciem. Sors immanis et inanis, ...

Re: I wll be bringing my kid for my own reason.
Fastest way to get BM shut down would be to ban kids. huh I always figured it would be shutting down the JOTS because of the trash or having a rainstorm like the one in '98 hit on Tuesday. As to the dust being a health risk, people get hurt or killed out there from things other than the dust. It's ...

Buckaroo Banzai opens on the playa. That film starts where Black Rock City ends. Is that the one with Adam Ant and the jamaican aliens from another dimension? Good movie, I think I'll add it to my netflix since I haven't seen it in awhile. You're thinking of Peter Weller in the title role. http://w...

Actually, reverse the process he stated and your cooler melt is good for drinking. With clean hands, pack your ice into 1 gallon (or larger) ziplock bags for reloading your cooler. Its much easier to clean your hands than keep your cooler clean. Well, without being too pedantic, that doesn't fall i...

If you have a clean cooler, and you keep your food in zip-lock bags, you can drink your cooler's ice melt. The problem isn't with starting with a clean cooler, it's keeping it clean. Cooler melt water? I'd say that falls under the category of "just because you can do something, doesn't mean you sho...

I didn't mean it to say I wouldn't put in my fair share of the workload. I'm certainly no sponge. Just that I might need a hand here and there. Wasn't trying to say you were a sponge, but over the years a lot of parasites have approached camps with the same "I'll pitch in!" promise and they end jus...

I've had good luck with many, many years of re-using water containers--however, you MUST properly clean and sterilize the container before using again. Cleaning and sterializing is no big deal, and if you get a big bottle brush (like the kind hombrewers use for their fermenters), it goes quick. Ster...

I was considering joining a camp since I know I'm going to need help out there. Hell, I've never even been camping before. Not trying to bust your chops too much, but you really want to find out if camping is your thing before you plunk down on a BM ticket, plane fare, hotel fare, rent car money, f...

Going by yourself is not the end of the world. It's fun to share the event with a good friend, but on the other hand if that friend discovers that they don't want to be there and they're going to hold it against you for the rest of their life, it ain't worth it. Never, ever talk someone into going--...

Be prepared for a rough environment. Hot as hell during the day and downright cold at night. Rain has been known to happen as well as duststorms. Basically plan for camping completely on your own for two weeks. That's a no bullshit head's up. The wind can equal hurricane force, sometimes for hours ...

Anyway I can contribute without attending the burn? Thanks for the offer, Fishy. The best way to contribute is to go to your local blood bank and find out how to become a bone marrow/stem cell donor. If you can't do that, then give money to cancer research or help with survivor groups/organizations...

Back on subject and ignoring your mother issues--don't bring out a regular car battery if you're planning on using it as your primary power source. A car battery is not designed to maintain a consistant voltage for an extended period of time. What you're needing is a marine or deep-cycle battery. Yo...
