Super extra beads and sequins, so it'll be extra sparkly in the playa sun! And a little bag of glitter, to blow on people so they feel as pretty as I will!

98% sheep.


the best wolves used to be sheepdogs, the best sheepdogs used to be wolves.


the sheep dont care, they're too busy eating and bleating to notice that the wolves are picking them off, one by one.

the sheepdogs never get any rest, or any thanks, but at the end of the day, punch out on the same time clock as the wolves.

weird, huh.

Nah, I want to play pretty princess dress up, not wear my jammies! (Although my coveralls are in blue).

Fur's ok, right? I thought I'd pack my Pennsic garb

I worked very hard on the historical accuracy.

Unbelievable this was almost forgotten. Bring a bicycle lock!!! It seems a few "Burners" interpret "gift" culture as "take" culture. It's quite the antithesis of cool.
