In a world riven by uncertainty and strife, one rock remains, the BDC&WB!!!

What makes for a good Barberian?

Firm, spankable buttocks spring instantly to mind but I'm sure the list is long.

Sensei, WTF? Will party with me like it's 2012?

As a card carrying member of the ACLU and also a person who was married by Doc, I can say you may safely ignroe them when they try to stir up stuff with the liberuls. But I agree, I've had minimum contact with LEO and it's all been positive. The Rangers have a special LEO Liaison (?) team. I would c...

I can only hope the spankings from anatomically improbable vixens picks up in intensity.

1. Drink!

2. Apply for an art grant.

Burningman: The NEW Paint by Numbers!

I guess bashing xtianity is the last refuge of the bigot.

Radical inclusiveness indeed.

I've always thought that meant trying to stretch yourself to understand, or at least respect; the Other. But it seems to have devolved into an echo chamber for people who agree with you.

Burningman is like any other drug, you take it long enough, you'll develop a tolerance.

---------------------------------------------------

It is impossible to be objective about realism because everybody creates their own reality.

This one project is making me reconsider my decision not to attend. What an awesome idea.

Buy twice as much water as you think you need and half as much of everything else. If you want to "consume" BM, bring a bike and you can ride frenetically all over the playa checking things off your "To see" list. Or instead of dropping $100 on a bike you'll use a week, go about on foot and meet man...

What'd he call it?

Anatomically Improbable Plastic Figurines Und Cheep Table Wine Conzentrazslager?

Wasn't part of the Atreiades strategy to use the fremen's fighting prowess against the Saudukar, and thus control Dune and da spice?

Who will co-opt the Fremen to bring cheaper Burningman tickets to the masses?

Doc doesn't swallow, he spits.

The "Temple Crew" announced that it would not be building a temple.

But they asked that "their" space be reserved.

yes... the question then becomes: Where do we want to put our energies into? Maintaining our over-seas empire... or taking care of our home turf? I vote for taking care of our home turf? Forget and forgo this stupid overseas empire.... I think those are probably the right questions. It would truly ...

If the Empire collapses, none of us will be able to afford to go to Burningman. Burningman exists by virtue of an enormous logistical pyramid, and it is all fueled by big oil. The Empire, by externalizing a lot of the costs of oil, has given us wealth such as the world has never seen. Central heat a...

Due to shrinkage Critical Pricks was canceled and all the participants who DID show up, were offered jobs at FoxNEWSCorp(se).

Yes.

If you are peeved about photographers at Critical Tits, bring a small hand mirror. When you see a photographer who is only focusing on tits, hold the mirror in front of the lens. This communicates something or other about empowerment, privacy and the Meaning of Life, without destroying stuff. You mi...

Huh. I've already got Dewey, Cheatum and Howe working on my lawsuit to force SOMEBODY to pave the playa. As long as it's in that dusty state, people with respiratory disease cannot attend. Clearly this is a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act and It's Just Plain Wrong. Who will help pay...

No way dudes!!! I've had lots of hot unwashed sex with hot unwashed hotties. There's nothing like 3 days of sleepless, showerless existence to make one hot hot hot! The thumping, pumping explosive, slippery and gentle strokes of the playa vibe environment make librarians take out their buns, make li...

"It's not Burningman without snacks and beer!"

A beautiful sentiment, I'm going to email it to my wife.

Fire Wire, I used to teach English as a Second language, so I'm pretty much a jerky-face. but I gotta tell you there is no such thing as 16.00AM http://www.campherring.com/BurningMan.asp?Burn=TRUE&language=EN It can be 4:00PM, or 16.00, but it can't be both. There will be a quiz, Mein Herring.

The BMORG has changed their policy regarding how they support artists. It is fully explained in the manual, under the heading "Radical Self-Reliance."

What religious vote? A Lubavitcher in Brooklyn is going to vote differently from a Baptist in Boston who will mostly vote differently from an Episcopalian in San Francisco. Not even the Jesusland evangelicals have a tent big enough for all. In one respect maybe Bush has been good, in that he seems t...

That's a good one!

What about the annual debate over dry ice?

Sounds like you need to start such a collective. If it's a good idea, you'll get lots of help.

Can you give examples of how Burningman has become institutionalized? The nomenclature that has sprung up is one example: "virgins" "burners" "spinners" "MOOP" "gift" (as a verb!). Then there is the thought of temple building people reserving the same space year after year. And of course that thing ...
