Hi-yo from the Land of Lincoln

Postby Starman68 » Thu Feb 21, 2013 8:02 pm

Hello all, my name is Curtis. This August I will drive 1920 miles from southern Illinois to BRC for the first time, and I’m pretty god-damned excited about it. I’ve been reading and watching everything “Burning Man” I can get my hands on for the last few months, and have begun plotting and planning to prepare for this adventure. I have discovered a wealth of valuable information on ePlaya, for which I am grateful to you all, (I will leave my feather boa at home, but I will bring pickles). I look forward to seeing, (many, but not all) of you all on the playa. :lol:

Then I realised that the Lord doesn't work that way so I stole one and asked Him to forgive me.

it says east st. louis, but then again, why would anyone ever admit to actually living there?
Once I noticed I was on fire, I decided to relax and enjoy the fall™

I sometimes work in East St Louis, but only during daylight hours... and you're right, no one would admit to living there.

So if I'm reading this correctly, I need to come up with some sort of Bacon wrapped Pickles marinated in Absinthe...and a lot of it. Check.

Battered and deep fried bacon wrapped pickles marinated in absinthe...... :shock:

Damn, now I'm hungry.
