we did have a plan unfortunately, it fell through. I don't appreciate your snide comment. Please refrain from posting criticisms of our posting---seems pretty un-burning man to me.

Actually, 'youthful' is pretty hysterical.
Nothing wrong with looking for a camp, but that is pretty funny.

In the Olympics program today from Beijing, we have the 100-meter snarkfest. Who is favored for the gold medal?

I think it strange when a virgin tells a veteran how it is supposed to be.
Where do they get these concepts from that snarky-ness is un-burningman-ish? Who said? Did they read it in a magazine?

Hmmm.

I probably did that before I went.
It often is too hostile.

Burning man didn't make me a burner.
I was born to burn.

It's just a place to meet others this way.

I couldn't agree more.

But I am having trouble with the voting. I feel that I could only so humbly aspire to be the 'model of a major burner' i.e. I am not worthy of such a tag. I think I am a little snarky (aren't we all?), but that doesn't fit either. And what constitutes the old days? 2001, 2005, 1990? Definitely NOT 'like it but don't breathe it'.
So I guess I just won't vote since I don't fit into a category. Gosh, like THAT'S never happened before!

Love the tread. You guys crack me up.
