milford · Post by **milford** » Mon Aug 17, 2009 3:22 pm

HI,

MY name is Dan and I am from Tacoma, WA

REallly considering attending but not sure of the spectrum of people. I do not want to be perceived as an old fart attending a younger crowds event.

Thanks

You are exactly the right age. Welcome Home.

(I'm 52).

Just be sure to keep your pants on while wearing a shirt, you'll be fine.

Thanks for the replies.

I think I will fit right in. I am coming by myself and looking to have a great experience.

Geez, I happen to think 48 is the perfect age for BM! And next year I will think that 49 is the perfect age for BM... etc etc etc.

This week, I think 48 is the perfect age. Next week I will probably prefer 49.

Screw the note! Bring the kids!!

I'm 47, a veritable youngster round these parts, and I bring my son, he'll be 6 for his 2nd burn.

Don't let age stop you, in fact, get your ass out there while you still can

48 is a bad age to attend BM for the first time....49 is much better

Dammit, I have to be more careful on the words with double meanings. You guys are all over it. LOL

Welcome, Milford. I remember feeling that way. Just be careful to ask permission before passing your your old guy "creepy hug"!

marcgorcey · Post by **marcgorcey** » Wed Aug 19, 2009 9:16 am

I first attended in my 40s and realized at the burn that I had a lot of growin' up to do.

I don't think it's too early for you to go.

That's funny Marc.. I first attended in my 40's and realized that I had alot of growin' "down" to do..

Lifes short release your inner child !!

Nitevenus · Post by **Nitevenus** » Wed Aug 19, 2009 3:41 pm

Remember the school playgound of your youth? Well, this one is a helluva lot better than that one..........channel your inner child......think Bedouin Las Vegas and remember, we all look the same covered in playa dust. I celebrated my 48 on playa and all I can say is WAY WOO !!!

Ugly Dougly · Post by **Ugly Dougly** » Wed Aug 19, 2009 3:45 pm

I know your daughter is attending. But she doesn't know you're here. So wear a disguise. And do something really creepy. Nah, just a weird fantasy...

I'm a 65 year old BM virgin this year. I may age but I refuse to grow up.

:arrow: Come around to the Twistine Chapel.
We got a pope there who's 101 yrs old.
Maybe not. He might be only 95. He fucks with our heads a lot.

It's all about faith.

Will the Twisting Chapel be around in 2010 (My first burn:D!)? I'd love to come and check it out, and especially meet this marvelous 101 year old Pope
