Hitch a trailer on!

Greetings! I'm from Minneapolis, and there is a substantial burner community here. There's a meeting at Morissey's Pub in Uptown, every other Wednesday or so. I haven't been yet, but I'm going to after the ticket sale. Gods willing, I will get that sweet sweet golden ticket. My first year, I went wi...

I believe radical rituals include blood sacrifice, virgin burnings, and mass orgies. Sooooo.... Burning man as usual? Theme doesn't bother me, going to BM is itself a radical ritual. What does bother me is if the Man is caged in that building.
FREE THE MAN!!

Sooooo... If someone wants to buy a presale ticket to guarantee entrance into BRC, that same person could also buy main sale tickets and then sell the presale ticket to another burner? is that kosher?

Seems like someone has been watching too much "American Horror Story: Freakshow." LOL

I had a good blackout at the Celtic Castle. Loved having my drinks poured by Irish people. They don't hold back.

Exodus was a cake walk.

Left about 2 o'clock on Monday. Half an hour wait before hitting the pavement.

I plan to enjoy it on August 9th, which is the weekend I'll be doing my final prep, food purchasing, and staging.

August 9th... The Day we dropped Fat Man on the Japanese subsequently ending WW2.

Enjoy that Atomic Fireball

What do we do with the Atomic Fireball candy?

I've read some people eat it right as they get it. Some people save it until they reach the Main Gate.

bump bring some baking soda. Pour a little in your hand and just a little bit of water. Mix it together until it forms a paste. Rub your hands together and then rub your armpits. You will still sweat, but you won't stink. Stuff works great. Since junior high school I've used plain baking soda. Arm ...

I was freaking out about ticket stuff, but I got my email last Wednesday, it's supposed to be at my door by today.

I'd say the time to freak out would be by late* next week.

Never say never.... I have attended many a Catholic mass on the battlefield where the priest used a 55 gal. drum, the hood of a jeep or a stack of ammunition boxes as the alter and these we were located a long-long way from a sanctified church. You sound like you were fighting in the hell torn jung...

I'm bringing glass. I can/jar my own produce so I'm bringing canned cooked venison, tomato soup, green beans, peaches, tomatoes, salsa, pickled peppers, and jam to the playa. To reduce the MOOP effect if something DOES shatter en route, I'm going to put each jar inside of a Ziploc bag. Open jar, po...

I was joking.

Jeeeez.

I didn't realize things were so serious.

Why so sewious???

Christian the Jew baited and goaded this on.

See. Nothing changes. We're always the scapegoats for everything from World Wars to eplaya arguments.

Lol Simon, are you this grumpy on the playa? Just wondering cause I'll steer clear

Rock on, dude. I just wanna watch this battle in the dome.

Pleeeease lemme know if you're gonna take it to the dome!

This was an amazing read. I hope I get to see you and give ya a hug at the Caravansary.

I'm from Minneapolis and this sounds like a killer ride. But I already have one planned with a few friends. If not I'd take you up on it, in a heartbeat!

Look what I've started! This is how we settle things like burners. Please let me announce the Dome battle!

I'll be wearing a blue jumpsuit with a 58 on the back.

I'm gonna keep an eye on the stash and make sure its disposed of properly. And share my Nuka-colas with those who appreciate an ice cold radioactive beverage in the harshness of the desert. Keep an eye out for the guy in the Blue jumpsuit with the number 58 on the back. ;) And Figjam, I'll make ya m...

You two! In the THUNDERDOME! NOW!

I was reading around and saw that glass container are not recommended because of the MOOP potential. When glass breaks it does create small fragments that are difficult to dispose of. It kind of throw a damper into my gifting plans as I wanted to bring glass Coke bottles(labels replaced) to share. A...

Jeez, some drama has been building on this temple thread.

hope you're happy, schmucko...

I'll be at the temple listening for the bullhorn. and will probably laugh hard.

Good question. I think we'll have to wait and see. But I would almost bet that the fire from the man would catch on some of the souks.

Lose yourself to Dance was a good video, and I hope to hear it on the playa this year so I can get my dance on. I can't wait to put one of the noses on. Everytime I see one of the videos with all the people in the clown noses I can't help but smile. It does have an effect of changing ones appearance...

I highly recommend reading through Larry's essay and the link to The Souk above. I haven't finished reading everything yet, but so far it's been very informative.

Here's a photo of the pavilion:
