In the garage, with a shotgun, a rubber chicken, my cat, a RealDoll named Tsuki, a 6oz swordfish steak, a Captain Caveman decoder ring, a picture of the 1973 Dodgers, Zoomie's foot fetish, the occasional stripper to beat me up, 5 nicotine patches, a vial of Family Guy Anti Bacterial Soap, the occasional call from Suze, the occasional smoo, Avast AntiVirus, Mosh's Magical Marsupials, a bottle of Crisco, Spybot - Search & Destroy, the dude who pooped in the tuba, a PitBull named "Diesel", a limited edition 'Tickle Me Elmo', a Darth Vader mask, Terry Fader's turtle puppet, a bag of Ol'Roy dog food, a $5 gift certificate to "Biz-E-G's 'Lapdances and Laundry'", Lisa Lisa from the Cult Jam, the fabled "TSi CockRing Set", the new TSi "Paddle Me Palin" doll, a 250cc syringe full of empscum, a "Hello Kitty" tongue piercing kit, a pirated copy of WinRAR, a roasted turkey leg, my "Police Squad" box set, and K_o_C's non-used tube of Anal Eaze, I feel safe ...
Well it's Beltaine again, though a bit late due to scheduling conflicts. It's ok, Bel doesn't mind. Drunken naked fire jumping on a farm in Gettysburg tonight. But I doubt I'll get silk wrapped around my maypole. See you guys.
Depends. Go out in the deepest, driest part of Taz with 20,000 hippies for a week, carry all the water you need on your back and pay $200 for the privilege. Tell me how you like it.
I think Ian is taller than I but I still have a weight advantage. If I can backpack in August heat he could make burning man.
The only problem at BM is the facilities. They have a Leave No Trace policy, which is only right. You're supposed to have one porta-san for every 20 people, and have them cleaned twice daily. But the local contractor for porta-sans has screwed them the last few years. So they got 100 porta-sans for 20,000+ people and they only get cleaned once per day. Once you've started an event, no matter what your contract read, if they fail to perform you're stuck with what you have.
I kinda have issue with spending that much time in the desert with overflowing shitters.

Weight advantage plus or minus my weight? I'd have thunk I was a bit chunkier than you (padding not muscle), so a stint at burning man would be a bonus for me.
Anyways, I live on a desert continent, I can be in the desert after 3 hours drive. I'd bring my own blackfella, those guys can find water anywhere.
