Strategically placing plywood sheets to direct & concentrate the prevailing wind over your pond really helps also. We had no issues last year after doing this (until one of our neighbors dumped their coolers into our all but dry evap-pond Sunday night - gaurd or remove your pond on Sunday!) regards,...

Hello Rude! Welcome to our community. If you do end up going it alone, you could always bring a canadian flag or some other recognizably "Canadian" emblem or symbol (lots of Canadian beer would also work well!). That way other Canadians would recognize you as a kindred soul and be more likely to app...

Or for the ultimate in Playa-Poopers...

Would need several for any but the smallest of camps, but this is Burning- Man after all!

for god's sakes, man, it's just too risky to put a razor to your scrotum. just keep things trimmed so your ball sack doesn't look like a chia pet. Try doing the deed immersed in warm water (like a bath). Still have to be careful, but it is much easier! I did nick myself once, and it was a bitch the...

Along similiar lines; I've heard that taking a natural drum on an airplane can mess it up - any info on this? Maybe the low temps (or pressure drop???) I have a friend who swears putting a drum into an airplane cargo bay will destroy it (based on personal experience). As far as your question, maybe ...

One of my most cherished gifts was a bundle of sage that a woman had crafted into a doll that looked a little like "the man" (she intended me to burn it as inscence, but I thought it was cute so I kept it). Cost her nothing but time. It stayed in my truck as a mascot until it fell apart (dried out t...

I like the digital flexibility - take all the photos you want, erase the ones that do not work out, dump the good ones to a computer and go for more! That being said, last year my digi "died" after 6 photos :( (apparently the dust, although I was VERY careful with it). I plan to bring a digi again t...

A few years ago while taking out the trash at night I caught a female neighbor in all her glory through her open bedroom window. Without a doubt the hottest thing I have seen (better than watching a couple go at it for sure). The rythmic motion, intense looks, hair-whipping back-n-forth, and essenti...

Seems that some of the tactics posted on that website about Trolling are being used against ALLANON2. He could be the worst eco-terrorist, dump oil into drinking water, kill kittens, or whatever else makes him bad in your book, and none of that would have anything to do with the actions of BM/LLC. I...

This is better than work! Too bad it doesn't pay as well... There have been a few points raised that could be further discussed (such as); The method of transect determination, etc is well defined (and also used for other areas at least now and then), but is it appropriate to determine ALL potential...

This thread has been very interesting to me, it may be old news to some but it is new news to me! Thanks for taking this discussion to the next level by consolidating the threads and providing examples, sites, etc. Good stuff on both sides of the fence! I have often thought adopting the section of 4...

I am looking for input on what to change on my Mutant Vehicle. I had a pirate ship in 2002 (who didn't?), then last year modified it by adding 3 trailers (somewhat like Draka) and making it a DragonFly. I didn't get the Dragonfly to BRC in 2003 due to mechanical issues en-route... In addition to fur...

(snip) The way I've always seen it is: Pershing County is, to quote The Hat, 'The middle of Bumfuck, Nevada'. It's a county who's largest city, at least for the fifty-one weeks each year that BRC isn't there, has a population that could easily fit inside my grade school with room to spare. It's in t...
