The more people explain the Trip on their trip to BM, the more LEO's are gonna wanna come too.....But because this person is incidentally also telling people who havent been to go away...more LEO's Bait.


Hmmm.
Maybe you should give up the drug and actaully see/Do BM sober....

Gosh, might even be a whole new experience for you?eh?
I don't know how to quote more than one at a time, there are a few other quotes that I would've added. (anyone care to explain how, it would be appreciated, PM me please or post it, whatever seems appropriate)

Occupation as a Raver, I feel dirty as if Casanova is a Fox news Reporter (lost on his way to Salt Lake City..oops made a wrong turn did ya?)

I take eplaya seriously and 99% of the time can see through the BS or useless posts.

Here, I learned the permit requires some Law Enfrcmnt, ok fine, I called an attorney before attending and he explained "yeah, don't drive drunk bla bla bla" glad I called, used a DD if/when I had drinks.

As if I'd need or want to trip out there...hahahaha....even when on foot the brilliant lights and camps and art cars...the educated people/burners...whoa...what a trip so to speak...a million thanks to everyone who busts their ass there and here on eplaya.

I'll do my best to stay away from this thread, it's spoiling my electronic burn so to speak :lol:

I was taught many years ago, intelligent people do not argue, I'm on the verge of argueing and beyond. Not going to happen.

@Casanova.........Who are you? (no need to answer anyone more than yourself)

This thread needs a Burning Snopes to bunk/debunk the dreaded LEO-browsing-the-eplaya suburban legend.

That, and a few more hits of LSD.

Sometimes eplaya is a source of good information, and sometimes not so good information.

Don't take it too seriously, it's just another roadside attraction on the internet.

It was hotter than the hinges of hell last year; in fact the hinges of hell are just down the road; we often stop there to cool off.

May this threads' sun rotted, useless, windstorm destroyed old tarp of an annoying MOOP pile be chucked into the maw of the Fernley landfill.

True, and thanks.

Had it not been for this roadside attraction on the net, I would've ended up with a DUI. That's only one of the useful and interesting things I' learned here.
To save time I can NOT ride a bike, due to injury BS, I did think it was cool to drink and drive a disablity cart, how wrong I was, duh.

I'm not at that point if sitting and watching or letting the playa come to me btw...that's going to take many many years...I shuttled some elderly to and fro sit camp though...then pachang, off I rolled/crawled...5mph or less! Hmm, I wonder can I add a tow rope for tired bikers? (just kidding, maybe,...can I?)

It's all a matter of cut and paste. You can find the past posts in this thread in reverse order by scrolling below the part of the screen with the posting box and emoticons.

I suppose that that was someone's advice about getting along and cooperating and how to spend your time wisely. And maybe about tactics.
I offer up that there is no strong corollation between intelligence and a propencity to argue. The precursors to argument are more likely to be need for dominance, basic belligerence, and the like, rather than smarts.

i think i missed a page on this one but here's my two cents yet again. i always love a good lsd story. would i take acid before the burn, no fucking way, do i watch the burn? sometimes. the story was great, i could imagine having that kind of a trip as well, and i have seen the man go down 5 times. as far as taking acid and announcing it to leo's who are monitoring eplaya, wtf, can you say paranoid, and how much acid have you taken? they know its there they aren't going to target someone in their home state, and how in anyones imagination could they ever find that person from eplaya on thier way in or during bm. please!!!!!! as to them monitoring eplaya so fucking what. they know what happens on the playa who gives a shit. don't condemn this person because they decided to post a fun story about tripping at the burn. I have a great one i could post about a three week trip that started at dead shows in vegas. get over it people. now i got a bit of driving a disabled golf cart at some point, but again i skipped a page i think. that is just wrong if you are fucked up. but i guarantee that a bunch of folks do it. wether stoned drunk or otherwise and how much damage can you do at 5 mph. anyway just my thoughts! oh yeah and fuck all ya'll mother fuckers who are gonna say hippie shit about me. you know you went to a show or two ;)

Whoa! slow down bud! gnate...I have crappy grammar...read more closely (see my post above)... I do NOT drive drunk or high (high for me=I need a muscle relaxer, sometimes, at bedtime for severe head to toe spasms)...I would NOT have learned this was NOT ok at BM if I hadn't have read about it here. Luckily I am not a big drinker/partier and when I had a cocktail(s) I did find a DD here n there, ok?

That bein' said, sober, I did ever-so slooowly (practically stalling the motor, faaaar under 5mph) drive out to the trash fence, with sleeping passengers, to see the sunrise and I dozed a teeny tiny bit and ever-sooo-softly...pressed against the trash fence juuust enough to mildly rebound and we were all "saved" lmao by a bunch of HOT looking ravers! Sunshine and bunnies framed by the beautiful sky was our "good morning" as we all spilled onto the ground...after the sunrise, we puttered off to the movie theater (schweet!)...then the Temple where (safe looking) hippies fed us roasted potatoes...after that I forget...I think it was back to (one of) my camp(s) and nap time. Wanna ride gnate? Never a boring moment, promise :lol:
