Jeers to the Rocket.

After so much hype pre burn, then the three hour wait ... Epic Fail!

You should have done a second launch on Saturday after the Man burn sans the fireworks. People want vast amounts of propane pumped JP-8 to go boom in the night.

Bike thieves suck, definitely. That said, our camp loads all our bikes into a single truck, and I know several other camps that do the same. Assuming that truck full of bikes is a thief is asking for trouble.

I think kahluagal was "wondering" more than Assuming...

And assuming that he was assuming, what king of "trouble" is forthcoming??

Cheers, to all of my friends on eplaya and tribe that I got to meet in person at the burn.

Jeers, to having to wait another year to do it all over again.
Excuse me Ma'am, your going to feel a small prick.

Hey Gravy Brain,

I will look you up at the SF Decompression.

Great to see Anti M in my village at Hushville and meet Deb, Gyre and Ygmir, not to mention Phil and Louise. Wow am I becoming a name dropper or what? 2009 was a blast for this old bag of bones. Counting the days to the Metropolis and being back home in Hushviille once more. Great bunch of people and so much fun. Ohio, you rock

Been a Husher since Year One, LOL. Great place to hang a hat or two, huh? I met a lot of great folks this year.

I think Metropolis will be fantastic.

I think that some 1920's flapper clothes would be great for the Metropolis theme.

Gotta start working on that! Back to Gotham City

Still love that photo of you, Anti M all dressed in white sitting on the edge of the bed. So saintly LOL

Cheers to all the accordion lovers I met!

Cheers to daRat who set me up with a great trike to tool around with!

Cheers to the sound crew at Center Camp... they were the best ever!

Cheers to Emma the master of ceremonies Don Quixote's for her kind invite and great club!


Jeers to the person who came up with the idea to charge volunteers BEFORE the event started $20 to leave the playa... "Hey help me dig a hole for my pool, want a beer? sure thing... that will be $5.00 please."
