to the barflys in here who didnt get tix, you got connections here. dont sweat it, it will happen!

but i do feel your pain and frustration. In 2012 I did not get tix through the lottery, it was a very sad day for me. But...I did register for STEP as soon as I could and was able to buy my ticket in March. My daughter got hers through STEP in early June.

I definitely need a drink. I'm one of the sad faces today. I did everything right but you know how that can deceive you. I'll register for step. Yup. Gimme a double please.

Pretty drink, Jella. I hope the tickets work out for all our friends.

Tonight, I'd like a fire. I tried ice-cream for comfort, but now I'm cold deep inside.

Well I'd invite you over Elorrum but when I got here today EVERYTHING was covered in snow, including the extremely undernourished wood pile... :evil:

I did get the kitchen door dug out and the empty birdfeeder refilled before dark. :|

The bay is frozen over, and it's so quiet out I can hear the snowflakes falling. 8)

If anyone hears of tickets in the New York, NJ, CT,PA area and needs a middleman to check it out, pick them up, whatever, let me know. I'm happy to help out. I did this in 2013 (I think) and got two tickets for campmates.

Morning all!
I didn't sleep so well, I have an interview tomorrow;
-better pay, more interesting work, and if they seem like better management then I'm out of this circus pretending to be a company.

So happy I have tickets - I will be co-lead at Orphans Too this year, hoping for early arrival...

cheers! :coffee:

I'm doing the same, catman. If you can score a vehicle pass, I've got a trailer. 6' by 6' by 8' long, attached to a covered p/u truck with an 8' bed. You live close, so I won't charge you gas. The whole point is this: We as burners have to buck up and work together as a community.

Dear Bar,

Okay, I am absolutely certain that my mojo since the beginning is from the awareness I gathered at the beach in S.F.
back when I honestly had no idea what this is, was, or ever will be.
So last night when people phoned and said "don't worry" I worried !
Have I become this..
uh uh...

Today I worked out first and regenerated myself
thank God I studied enough to know what is possible
Shit , I feel good.

No tickets here either, but there's still time. Bummed that they went so quickly. Wow.

I'm pouring rum if anybody wants to join...

Thanks for the rum LCN! Hope you don't mind if I make mine into a caipirinha. I have plenty of lime juice and ice to go around.

And thanks Catman and Marty - only one more night to go...

And good luck to all you folks looking for tickets. I'll keep my ears open.
