Yawn, BurningMan is so 1995.
Wearing Hi-Viz Black.
Yeah. A few "associates" head off up there each year.
There isn't any money used throughout the event. It is all on a trade/exchange/swap trading system.

Yeah, it's been around for a pretty long time now. Apparently it has lost much of the sparkle that it had at the start (as always happens with events like this I guess). It's the sort of thing that I wouldn't bother going to now, would rather spend my time searching out the next 'big thing' like this and get in at the grass roots.

Oh- then I guess I have a lot of things to learn. Still i've come a long way since leaving the exclusive bretheren 18 mnths ago!

Never trust a Hippy, or a Geek who thinks he/she is a Hippy.
Burning Man could be made a lot better with a nice precision Naplam Strike.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
Rasta Ratskins
Yeah but the 2nd link I put up focuses on the naked chicks man.
So you see, the hippies haven't entirely lost the plot! Man.

Naked Hippy chicks.
Last thing I need to see is a bunch of broad hipped chicks with roll mops for breasts "enjoying" the sunshine.
I'm now thinking of upgrading from Napalm to BLU96's.

I have no idea what that is! Fine grain film?

Wait, are you taking about me?

Is this computer terminology?
The place is out in the desert, so a nuke test could be done and nobody would notice.
Speaking of which. Search google earth for "Area 51" then go west a few miles. Massive craters from the underground tests. Interesting place!

No no, I think he's merely saving up "wind up" points for the next time I see him. Besides, he's grumpy because I get to go and fuck around in the desert for a week while he reboots windows boxes and gets pissy at management.
As for all the "too cool" posters. Well, maybe. There is a danger it's turned into spring break in Nevada. But I bet there's a shitload of art for me to gape at. And with the people I'm going with I'd be happy to sit on a sofa, in a desert, and talk shit for a week. But it won't be like that. It'll be cool. And you bastards will be jealous

Apologies for the quality of these. Photo'ed from a magazine article about the event.
The First is looking down on about half of the camp "city".
The other two are of a few artworks.
