Virgin Burner Looking to find his way

Post by Legacys » Sun Dec 07, 2008 11:11 pm

Hey my name is Cody i am going to be going to Burning man in 2009 and still have no real clue how i am going to get there.

My hope is to find a kick ass van and drive it out there. If anyone in the kansas area wants to jump on I will gladly consider.

Any tips are welcome or anything really..


thx and peace
I am still looking for something. I think?

Hey Cody, welcome to eplaya.

When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle.
Then I realized that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me

And if your going to drive out there in a soccer-mom mobile, at least remove the soccer ball stickers :wink:

Hi Cody. Do NOT under any circumstances shake Jkisha's hand if you meet him on the playa. This is someting that you'll live to regret. A friendly wave from a least 10 feet is advisable.
Oh, by the way----WELCOME!

Ahh the PBR. What wonderful memories warm and dusty PBR brings back. What a wonderful chaser to either the red or blue pills. Now you choose grasshopper.
