A lurker introduces himself...

Post by lowdirt » Wed Jun 04, 2014 7:20 pm

hello friends! I'm from Fort Worth, Texas, and figured after a year of browsing these boards I ought to introduce myself. I'm a 31 year old male who occupies much of his time on earth with the following things: bicycles, beers, music, and exploring forgotten places. happy to be here, sharing this with you!
Thanks, ants. Thants.

if I can find a ticket and vehicle pass, absolutely! I had a very recent change of plans/priorities, and am now fully intending to go. just one little detail to take care of...

If you will it Dude, it is no dream.

EDIT: fingers crossed, this year I'm hoping to volunteer with Arctica
Thanks, ants. Thants.

Welcome, lowdirt. You've probably got this covered already, but make sure you're in the STEP! There's also the last minute OMG sale. Finally, get in touch with local burners to get your networking groove on. Tickets tend to shake loose a bit more as the date looms nearer, so have everything else in place and be ready to spring like a panther (with a great mustache) on a ticket. More info on local events and mailing lists here: http://regionals.burningman.com/

Also, a bunch of eplayans try to get the same shift for Arctica - my Google fu is weak and I can't seem to find the thread, but do poke around for it.

When he puts out his lamp, he sends the flower, or the star, to sleep.
That is a beautiful occupation.

Give us a two-page essay on what you have learned as a lurker.
