Just a Big Old Fucking Thanks!!

Post by samtzu » Wed Sep 22, 2004 6:02 pm

NOW I know why there are another 34,000 people at Burning Man... it is to dilute the energy that presents itself on these boards. If we all got together for a week, the seismographs as far away as Tajikistan would be going off at an 8+. This group just fucking fires me up!!! From Rob's on target, witty, velvet sledhammer blows, and Sensei's frenitically dancing rhetoric, to Joel's suave and sure footed brick-wall-placement of facts, and Fishy's snide slaps upside the head, this fucking place ROCKS!!!

If this was all Burning Man was, just us sitting around, shooting the shit, it would beat anything that the Algonquin could have come up with in the Thirties, or Keysey and the Pranksters in the Sixties. This is rich in concept and execution. Ahhhhhhh... I am grateful that I can just be here.

You Guys are great...

Well, I could blame it on my meds... but I don't take meds. ...Maybe you should look into that... Shaddup!

What happened was this: after a long, hard, fucking day at work, I sat down at the ePlaya and had all of my stress just washed away by the postings everyone made. I studied the source and realized what a great fucking thing we have here. I just wanted to say "Thank You" to everyone.

Of course, with this group, "Fuck You!" works just as well... but I prefer politeness...

And a road trip sounds very, very, very good....

Which is why Samtzu gets the "Post of the Day". Thank you, Samtzu.
