I don't know yet. My nephew & co. are in charge of all of that. He's old hand, I'm just a dragalong (not exactly kicking and screaming tho, as you can tell). I'll let you know as soon as I find out!!!Mojojita wrote:Where will you be camped?

Yes, I usually use the "quote" to reply to someone's post, but you don't have to. If you use that feature it'll show who typed the thing to which you're replying.
If you don't do that and instead use the button above the place where you type, highlight the sentence you want to quote and then click the button. It'll put both the code that opens and closes the quote that way. You can also add in the code '="X"' to show that X is the one you're quoting...
heheh. Yes folks, she CAN be taught!!!! (thanks again!)

Huge highlight of my day thus far:
At the resort where I work a couple sauntered in to the reception area, baby in tow, looking to heat up her bottle and have a little rest after having been walking the forest trails.
I had the bottle nuked, and settled them in on a cushy couch by the big stone fireplace, started a fire for them to complete the experience, then went back across the hall to the reception area to continue working.
Within a couple of minutes, I starting hearing Whoop’s of Joy coming out of the baby. The absolute glee coming out of her mouth was so contagious that after each one you could hear a laugh coming from anyone within hearing distance of it (myself included).
So I sauntered back over to take a closer look.
She was staring into that fire with the most amazingly joyous awe dancing in her eyes, and the biggest damned smile I’d ever seen….
Turned out it was her first fire!
I couldn’t say anything outloud, but I looked at that baby and thought “Aha! Welcome, future burner!â€

A child's curiosity is an amazing thing! Too bad adults lose that, as they get older.
In 2005, Gabriella visited Black Rock Roller Disco..my former camp. She had never skated in her life. With the help of many of our campmates, she learned how to stay upright on 8 wheels. Throughout the week, she was at the rink...sometimes several times a day. And, over the years, she always came back....with Roller Disco Skills that would make "D" proud!

When you wear them and nothing else and look in the mirror, your penis will be reflected so as to look huge and green.

And so it starts...
Pretty much every dream I've had over the last couple of weeks has had to do with Burningman. Just from having hung out in here, reading about it all, spending every other moment planning for it (in both practical and fun terms)... I guess you could say it's got to me....
However, last night I was awakened by the same hilarious dream -- having something to do with something, but definitely on-playa -- three times. Three times I woke myself up laughing. All three times I thought - ah man, now THAT's one of those unforgettable ones.
...I guess I was wrong, because come morning I hadn't a clue what it was about.
....I suppose I could claim I was dosed...
Probably by my cat Larry. Little shit licked me just before I went to bed!!!
