I wonder if this has any bearing on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illinois_v._Caballes

That is the case where the police basically have the right to search any vehicle if a drug sniffing dog "alerts."

How the world has changed...

I've been pretty bored with the burn for the last few years. So two years ago I stayed in camp and watched it from the roof of our camp truck. This year I went to the art car ring and partied with the art cars. Not once was I told to sit down. Not once did my ass hurt from sitting on the hard playa....

Kick out the fucking bankers and Cruise will be making a movie about you 60 years later. This is just a guess but, if you kick out the bankers AND attempt to exterminate an entire people, you'll have Tom Cruise make a movie about you 60 years later. Perhaps Obama could just kick out the bankers, an...

Hey Moist, part of the scheme for Barbarian Camp MAY include a mysterious ancient civlization - which will stand in stark contrast to the barbarians. (All in good fun of course.) We might be abel to use your efforts to this end. Consider becoming a barbarian for a week. No need for a Schwarzenegger...

??????? I figured you had this pretty nailed by now, MoisturePup..... Look thru the BM pics on this site again, especially the "People".......... some of the most simple, cheap, interactivity are my personal favorites........ And it will make you smile, if nothing else.......... :D I've gone with a...

Maybe somebody could create a new "culture" or "religion" Never expect "someone" to "do it for you". What do you have in mind? This is a good time to brainstorm. I've been thinking a lot about it. An "experience" doesn't have to be physical and could be something creative that exists through a char...

art is typically achieved by two different paths: creativity and funding. if you are creative enough, you will need little or no money to create something fantastic. start off with the contents of the grocery store recycling bin for example... what can you build with large amounts of cheap/free car...

Money can't buy everything as they say... this year many of us, and our friends, and campmates, are going to be dealing with financial doomsday scenarios. How do you do Burning Man on the cheap, yet not be a spectator. How do you put out something amazing, that cost more in the way of time than money?

OKay I know people have said videos and car commercials have been inspired by Burning Man...

But this one for MGMT's Time To Pretend is so close to what Burning Man is like that I can't help but think it actually is inspired by Burning Man:

It's really weird to drive the grapevine at night listening to Art Bell or Harry Shearer. :)

Speaking of grapevine there were a lot of vacancies there as well.

Over the weekend I was down in LA and drove through West Hollywood. Santa Monica Blvd between Doheny and La Cienega is the heart of the LA gay district. As I turned off of Fountain onto La Cienega I noticed something I'd never seen before: empty store front after empty store front. As I rounded the ...

Even though EMS doesn't pay worth shit (my garbage man makes more then I do!) At least I have a job. Can't see them off-shoring my line of work. Oh Horrors! What if they off-shored 911 operators?! :shock: I've heard of this being done. Reactions were not favorable. Call centers are often consolidat...

Is there a primer for buying/selling gold?

I'm wondering...most of the people that have posted about being robbed or their tents being pilfered through...were you camping alone or with a theme camp? I have always camped with a theme camp where everyone knows everyone else and there is usually someone around all the time. I think that might ...

Well...

What's the details on the user that went to Pincus' house? None as far as I know. I was just kidding. Really. But just for fun, let's pretend that I wasn't, and make our own story.

crime fighting.

Actually, that's partially true but I have been on all morning with no problems. Bet I just hexed myself. I'm getting a connection refused when I try to load the site.

Tribe.net was nice while it lasted. Sadly it was managed by "experts" into the ground just like most American companies.

Tribe is a symptom.

Oh happy day! OH HAPPY DAY!

The Trillion Dollar Bill For The Ultra Wealthy FAILED!!!

Whoo Hooo! (to quote my favorite now defunct middle class rip off bank.)

I've been re imagining tribe lately. I think I might go ahead and start writing code.

DVD Burner wrote:Ok, if ya wanna hear a Tribe funny, here's one.

So Mark Pincus and I exchanged emails yesterday. He asked for my resume.
I said sure and sent it.
I get an email from him and Andrew shortly there after asking for my resume.

:shock:

Anyhoo......I resent it. :?

haha, nice.

Isn't a scheduled maintenance not sudden? :shock: :? :x

Who knows what state the staff and site are in these days. I just wish they'd fix the god damn instability issues.

And it works better than ever now that he is not at the helm.

You spoke too soon. It appears to be down for the first time since Darren's departure.
