From another thread:


Friend or Enemy Name
Camp Name
Camp Address
c/o BRCPO
Burning Man
Gerlach, NV 89412

Postmistress Sylvia chimes in with: "That's the Zip code for Gerlach. But to get a delivery onto the playa and to the BRCPO, it has to be addressed "c/o BRCPO" and have a very detailed description of the person it is intended for and suspected camp location.

And it's considered bad form if you do not tip (in the form of alcohol or the psycoactive choice-of-the-day) the mailperson.

also acceptable are spanks/spank requests, massages, full meals, and lavish italian villas.

Look, I tried to pack my extra lavish Italian villa, but when I folded it the cypresses got all moopy.

next time, send your villa PedEx. We Can Fold Shit Like You Wouldn't Believe. Also, we'd only pillage it slightly en route.

fishies are not sure where they camp. Fishies' husbands camp in Station 9 under the name of Scott. Look for the blue neon cross.
