Every time you see a school bus you think of converting it to your digs for a week.

Every single bus that goes by sparks a train of thoughts including...

"What color(s) will we paint it?"

"What color fur inside?"

"How could we attached raililngs to the top for easy riding?"

"What size disco ball?"

[quote="peace"]98% of your storage space is filled with crap you use 2 weeks a year.[/quote]

So true... We live in an apartment and our storage on the patio is entirely burning man prep and camp suplpies. My moms garage is still covered in dust and itesm that wont fit in my pad, like our bikes, monkey hut materials, etc.

And to top it off, we moved to an area full of vintage/consignment shops and the swapmeet. You never know what youll find! Treasure hunting this saturday! YEAH!

When your Christmas Presents are all playa prep and camp gear, you know ;)

I was just thinking of a motorhome (RV) as opposed to an artcar, but those are some great thoughts. How bout Partridge Family style?

SIGNS THAT YOU'RE A TRUE BURNER:
>The family mini van now has a flame thrower at the front and huge wings on the back.
>Your neighbours ask you to put on some clothes for your morning jog around the block.
>You stare at the local bartender in disbelief when he asks you to pay for your drink.
>You get on the local bus and ask the driver if he can "turn up the beats"!

You know that you're a burnerd when you refuse to respond to SIGHUP before 10 in the morning.

When you follow a bus sign that says "Bruner Realty" and see "Burner." And when you look at the Olympic torch and think it looks like it belongs in BRC...
