MAGE CAMP '09

[lhyr]

the playa is full of magic, and this next year we'll have a place to conglomerate and ignore the rules of static reality! we'll have discussions/workshops on topics ranging from neuro-linguistic programming for the layman to how to decode the mystery of the moment using three coins and an old book. honestly, we could teach you to hallucinate without drugs or unlock ability hiding in your DNA, yer pick. revitalizing refreshments during light out, and thru dusk each night, a fire that burns every spectrum we can see.

magic is the evolution of imagination into reality. all ideas are welcome. physically, we're based in northern california, but we had people from italy in our camp last year. if you're interested, please contact us.

hey man, sorry if they made off with your cash before you realized it was a system of ideas (i.e.: not worth paying money for), but that doesnt mean trying to sell their books. never even read one: just been paying attention to how the way people conceptualize their world around them determines what they get to do with their lives. who the fuck would go to black rock city to sell something?

however, us worse than scientologists? damn right. all they do is wash your brain. we leave it the mess it was before and hand you a few things to see if any of them take root. then its your deal...

ideas welcome, sure, but was this really all you could do for an idea?

[klondike_bar]

hmm...hallucinate without drugs?

that would save me 5-10$ every so often.... im in!

[Simon of the Playa]

yeah, go on in, smell the horse-shit yourselves, and then tell me what you think...

[Finnegan]

There are charletans everywhere. Singling out the theory of NLP is, um, dumb. Like any brain re-programming technique, use cautiously. If you don't want to spend dollars on books, there is this crazy new thing called the interwebs. Czech it out! Or, Dog forbid, a library.

It may be preferable to the woman on tribe who's convinced that parasitic worms cause all diseases and aging.

L. Ron Hubbard

I'd imagine if a person ate enough parasitic worms, they'd get sick, and or old........

[Simon of the Playa]

finnegan, you know i am an equal opportunity ass-hole.


i dismiss ALL whack jobs and theories like bad little 2nd graders.

Quote from the movie Postal (2007):

"we always talked about running a con like this, right? you know, about how gullible people are, how they'll believe anything if you just tell it to them a couple of times?"

[Ugly Dougly]

ideas welcome, sure, but was this really all you could do for an idea?

Has your group sturied re-framing yet?

[Simon of the Playa]

DOUGLY!



no hints.

[oneeyeddick]

What in the hell is NLP ?

I have tony robbins underwear......

[Simon of the Playa]

tony robbins has mine.

i know its real difficult to imagine, but neurolinguistic programming only came up as an example of how to re-order one's own thoughts. REALLY, this shouldnt be what yall focus on, just one set of words that pissed of one troll.

science once considered magnets to be a form of magic... cohesive reasoning used to be distrusted... nowadays, any form of taking awareness has a hippy parasite selling books and magazines about it, but THATS NOT THE POINT.

the point is taking your own evolution into your hands and finding out what you can do. if ya aint got shit to say that's formative or on topic, leave alone. this camp isn's setting out to start cults or teach people how to start cults.

[Simon of the Playa]

then what the fuck do you think Burning Man is? An Art Project? A Gathering of the Tribes, A DARPA petri Dish for wayward scientists?....



no.......ITS A FUCKING CULT SO DRINK THE FUCKING KOOL-AID!


oh yeah, welcome home.

[Ugly Dougly]

Spiritual mumbo-jumbo! Give me a good broadsword and an honest fight any day.

Science never thought of magnets as magic.

Cohesive reasoning is still distrusted.
