Dear Larry,
What's this Burning Man thing all about? I keep hearing people talk about this thing/city in the desert, and I don't know what the hell they're talking about. Please fill me in. Thanks.

Lots of luck
Rev. Lucifer

P.S. Thanks for the life altering place.

Got any job openings? Spare change? Change of scenery?

Why am I still up at this late hour? I have to work in the morning!

Dear Mr. Harvey,

Please don’t for get about Will Rogers, Harley, Ms. Marion, Michael Michael, Ms. P., Flash, Crimson Rose, Gavin, Annat, Pepe, and so many others that where there from the beginning that believed in and still do the philosophy of Burningman.

(Ok, so I left out so many others.....flogg me baby.....or Plonk me Baby.........uh.....ok so I'm getting an early start on the B day.....Woo hoo.)

Dear Larry,

Can you put a fire under the tech team to get that PLONK button up and running?

Dear Larry,

I LOVE the themes, especially the ones that are somewhat "etherial" and hard to get a handle on...make people think and grapple with something I say. If someone gives you shit about them just tell them "Blow me!"

I suggest a possible theme of "The Real Surreal." The playa already looks like the base coat of a Dali or Magritte painting anyways.

Put the man up on a giant Twinkie, with a spindly-legged elephant and several cubist monkeys driving a huge typwriter out of the Twinkie's creamy center, while a crowd of large scale vegtables on crucifixes and brains stuffed into giant olives (like pimentos) looks on in a frozen moment of time that resembles a colorful mishapen Celtic Henge, all the while comtemplating the random Furniture strewn about the scene like so many boiled beans.

...or something along those lines...

What is real? What illusion do you cling to as the truth? The Buddist say all is Maya, that this experience of incarnation is all illusion anyways...so who are you to judge what's "real?"
----------------
Either that or just make a "Circus theme" and have everybody show up as scary clowns...imagine the therapy sessions after that...

Dear Larry
Isn't the whole point of Burning Man to avoid therapy sessions?
Or am I unclear on the concept?

Dear Larry,

How can I get my socks white?

Dear Larry,

Why are panties hung from the shower curtain rod whiter than panties hung out on a clothes line?

Dear Larry,

Is there ever a right time to say the "w" word?

Dear Larry,

Have you ever wondered why Badger doesn't go get a job or something?

Stormy, That is a good question. Meanwhile.....

Dear Larry,

Would it be possible to get BMIR to offer more live content this year instead of playing pre-recorded segments most of the time? And could we get some new PSA announcements recorded instead of the small handful that also got stuck in loop mode last year? And timely and kinda accurate exodus info would be a bonus if you could arrange that.

Thanks,

Dear Larry, I hope you are saving all that cash to buy some land and not spending on your Sicilian villa, because time is running out on using public land.

Dear Larry,

Did you get as drunk for the 4th of July as I did? ...and watch a bunch of episodes of "the Family Guy" with your friends while it poured rain outside, before lighting off fireworks in a small backyard?!

Dang! I still got the taste of bugspray in my mouth!
