playa daze

Post by greenthumb85 » Sun Apr 04, 2010 10:24 pm

I spend my playa daze bar hopping, napping, yelling at people with a megaphone, taking classes or making things, there are many options, but don't miss the naked slip and slide!

[quote="Boijoy"]My friends and myself like to sit around at camp and bitch at whatever the weather is doing. Last year it was "F**king wind & dust !! why do we do this every stinking year ?!?! "" :) stop by. it will be fun![/quote]

Last year was one of the most moderate years I can remember.
No real dust storms worth mentioning
No rain
Not too hot
Not too cold

You should have been there in 1995.

This makes me cringe every time I hear someone talk about it. I have, in my mind, the image of zooming down the slippery run on my belly, only to find the mushroomed tip of a previous year’s rebar stake which would yield a result not unlike catching a zipper on a jumpsuit.

Yikes, thanks for the image. Although I already have a scar down the length of my belly, it has odd numb spots.

My skin grafts are out and out wierd, and the donor sites are a little odd as well.

I thought the naked slip 'n' slide onsisted of a bunch of oiled up naked people laying down in a 2X15 formation and then people sliding on top of them...

Could have picked up a ton of "donor" skin at the wedge ...... I didn't manage to lose any skin there last year but I think I picked some of somebody else's.....

I've done some stupid stuff in my day, but sliding down that astroturf "wedge of death" was a bit much. I did enjoy videoing people doing it, along with their look of horror at the bottom.

For some people, that's as close as they got to any action.

You should have done it. It was pretty awesome.
