Hopefully if the past is any prediction of future differences between eplaya and the actual event, many people will travel to the desert and have a great fucking time, while other people will.......

So many knee jerk reactions, eplaya never ceases to amaze me. If you really want to go to burning man at this point in the year and buy your tickets early, you will go. If you are going to let this stop you, well, what can i say. Could/should there be some better system, of course, but you know what...

fffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu............

Sounds like someone was speeding on their way out ....but I'm just jealous :p

The number one question I got for the car this year was.....does it shoot fire?

shameless self promotion.........

i took it upon myself to remove the 700mw blue laser from the Dalek because of said potential for eye injuries. Some people do try to be responsible....

I was talking to cap'n ron about another group who did something that was OK, but it was COMPLETELY different then their original submition. Consequently, a decent art car was denied. So, get a good idea and go with it. Besides that, there are four things you really need: 1. Money 2. Money 3. Time 4...

Baconsteak Bloodwater is the name given to me by the Souix. How weird.[/quote]

I lol'ed while in the bathroom stalls at work.

we have moved to a food saver. Expensive, but after all the years, it's really paying off for prepacked frozen meals of various sizes. No worries about bacon-steak-blood-water.

We have two: one for ice and one for dry ice. Since we go in and out of the cooler(you know...actually using it), it lasts about three days. The dry ice lasts about 4-5 days. ymmv depending on your usage patters and precautions done to keep the cooler as cold and insulated as possible. Sometimes the...

Just hooked up the voice modulator that i picked up. Matched germanium diodes, this thing is sweet. I just wish I could have 1000w of EXTERMINATE!!! but i'll settle for anything that the cart will power

Want to drive a 10ft Dalek?

I have used various mixes of tarps and shade fabric. I do love the complete blackout with the tarp, but after some scary windstorms, I now lean towards shade fabric. If you have a small setup or a nice support lattice/structure, tarps can be a great way to keep cool if ventilation is thought about a...

This is the guide gear tent that i bought a couple of years ago. http://www.amazon.com/Guide-Gear-Double-Wigwam-Tent/dp/B003C4XIZA/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top If you reinforce it where the poles and tie downs meet, its pretty decent. replaced the center pole with 1"+ emt. Held up to the wind great in o...

i opted to cut so that i could nail the tarp down directly into the playa w/o string attached to said nails. Less air movement, but also less kite effect.

I VP for a couple of reasons: 1) The bag is tough. What can I say, i am a man with minimal patience at times and tend to shove and what not. ATTN: Playa dust. You are not allowed to start consuming my beef jerky before I am. 2) guaranteed no carbonated food from the dry ice. 3) The meat can float al...

We left at 5am on Mon morning, and it would have been great if the pulse was in operation then. ...Well, it was all fine until i was 2 minutes away from leaving BRC and the FUCKING LOST CHILD WAS REPORTED. ARGH... It wasn't a bad wait, but still, it immediately added 30 min to exodus (3.5 for me). ...

we left at 2pm Sunday and we had a perfect pulse going. I could actually sleep, wake up for 5 min and drive, sleep, drive.... ...Well, it was all fine until i was 2 minutes away from leaving BRC and the FUCKING LOST CHILD WAS REPORTED. ARGH...

do yourself a favor and buy a pair of those $20 knock-off uggs during summer and use those just for the playa. You will not be able to make your uggs look like pre-BM, no matter how much you clean them. But yes, those fuzzy boots are quite a boon at 5AM when its colder than a...... I usually have pl...

drugs, guns, and angry white people....jeez, sounds like fun to me.

They took us off google maps and i just noticed it now.....WTF. Valley insiders, what's up? BRC finally has been absorbed into the giant vortex that fueled burner's desire to create live and burn....or some automated software screwed us over.

if you dump it down the drain, i will find you; i will hunt you down. ya, i know threats over the internet, but seriously, DO NOT dump shit down the drain. go to china for that shit instead of contaminating several million gallons of my drinking water/surfing water. who the fuck do you think you are...

I went to BM state university. I also did this little thingy to get me ready for burning man.

A truckers hitch is exactly what i was going to do. I figure i can get a lot of tension on those ropes with that knot, and it allows for easy fine tuning. I was going to start building it this weekend, but my *possibly* dying 1.5 year old cat just racked up a $700 vet bill last night, so this projec...

any '08 sat pics lying around?

Thanks for the links, but i'm looking for the actual recording at the opulent temple, or if someone knew the dj. I guess i can email the OT folks. Thanks.

So I want to build a nice STURDY tent. Here is my scale model. Wood dowels=2x4 straws=10ft 3/4" emt rope=used 8ml climbing rope or paracord or something. Walls are five feet high by 10 feet long. there is a center pole that is 10ft high. Fabric is not too much of a concern for us (10.1 canvas). The ...
