Sounds great. Burn him! and then dance around him and eventually jump over the embers. It's definitely "something". Fire is universal.

Way back in the beginning on the playa, somebody would haul clay/mud from one of the springs out to BRC for people to make totems, figures, whatever, and vest them with some personal meaning. They would all be put at the foot of the man (back when the man still stood on the ground). When the man started really cooking, the totems would "fire" in the heat and explode. It was a great casting-off. I wasn't there to witness this, but a person who was took this picture:

Here's to burning whatever you've got, wherever you are, for whatever reason. Cheers!

I'm wondering, too.

This place hasn't had too many customers lately. Maybe we need to redecorate. CHINTZ!! Lots and lots of chintz!

Some new wallpaper:

Reupholster the furniture:

And those dusty old curtains have got to go:

A lovely bathroom:

Now isn't this cozy?

Welcome to the new bar. ALL of our drinks are served with little paper umbrellas. Welcome, welcome. I am now going over to the "Fuck!" thread to bang my head against the wall. Later.

Back to what I call my life. I've decided I spend too much time here on the ePlaya and various other online services, so I won't be here as often as before.

Email me if you want to chat or something.

One more thing. Soko got to the hospital yesterday. They did an X-ray on his hand. He did fracture the 5th and 6th metatarsil bones. He's in a temporary cast right now, permanent to come in a couple of days. Vicodin is his friend.
