Let's have some fun for a change....View MessagesViewing posts 1 to 25 of 25 messages posted.
A mental and physical vacation? “Time to take a break from reality. I just wanta' forget it all. http://burningman.com/ Anybody want to come out this way (near Reno, NV)next September and do a Trail Talk camp out at Burning Man? We can test drive our new gear and wander around in the desert for a couple of days. Who can we get to drive the beer truck?” 4:36:43 PM 9/22/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Not me, I'm drinking” 8:26:02 PM 9/22/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Do we get to wander around the desert half-crocked, naked, and staring wide-eyed at what everyone else is up to? I'm in but there's no way I'm burning my campsite and gear up when it's all over!” 8:43:32 PM 9/22/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Thanks mel, you always know exactly what to say. Why should I fear terrorists? I want to kill myself.” 8:49:28 PM 9/22/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Half crocked, naked, finger painted... Sounds good to me. We don't have to burn the gear, we can take it home with us or eat it. Sgt? Is there such a thing as hangover triage?” 10:35:14 PM 9/22/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “hate to be a bare-er of bad news but did you see the tickets are $200 for burning man.” 5:11:55 AM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Go ahead bacpac.........
Tickets??? 4:38:27 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “I'm thinking that nifty little index card holder that everyone comes equipped with.” 5:15:26 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “I can't believe they charge admission! I thought they moved out to the desert to get away from all that crap. We'll just have to hold our own TT Burning Man. Any volunteers?” 7:01:00 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Don't forget your credit card for the food vendors. Although I'm pretty sure that's gonna make sitting down a bit tricky...” 7:05:35 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “For this one, I'm willing to sell my first born male child. Assuming menopause is retractable. Uh... That does describe other anatomic features as well.” 7:29:59 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “As I remember my parents cure for a hangover was a bloody mary, although I've never tried it myself. I from the grapefruit juicy fruit crowd myself. Get naked, get drunk, dane around a fire. Why the hell not...” 8:23:04 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “You need a desert to do that? Since when? I know landing gear is retractable --- unless it's 'fixed'.” 9:13:49 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “The benifit to a desert is you don't have to worry about getting rained out much” 9:27:18 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Roger Wilco.” 9:29:38 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “However windburn is a definite concern. Landing gear? Oh, what fun it is to ride!” 11:16:16 PM 9/23/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “For $200, there had better be a lot of naked people! Maybe we could open a finger painting booth to recoup some of the costs.” 3:45:05 AM 9/24/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Don't mind me, Mel, I'm just playing with words. Hmmm... sometimes public figures will retract a statement, or a publication might print a retraction... I *have* run into more than a few folks over the years who should've had their puberty revoked. Speaking of which, how many lap dances can you get for $200 these days?” 8:12:30 AM 9/24/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “From me? 200” 1:11:09 PM 9/24/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “"I'm going to find an ATM..." The Dude” 1:16:34 PM 9/24/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “I have friends that used my apt. as a ju,mping off and return location for BM this year. I can tell you, it's sounds like a blast. but everything, and I mean, everything was covered in white chalk dust. People wore goggles and respirators/dust masks out there b/c they have in some alkaline flats. Nighttime sure looked like a hoot tho. And even Dr. MegaVolt with his 15 ft. tesla coil was there.” 1:22:19 PM 9/24/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “Sects, sects, sects. Is that all you religious types ever think about?” 1:22:49 PM 9/24/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “YES!” 1:29:42 PM 9/24/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “...... And remember when "Wild Mustache Rides" used to cost a nickel?” 1:32:39 PM 9/24/01 RE: Let's have some fun for a change.... “I used to basecamp in the Black Rock and Smoke Creek deserts and hike in the surrounding mountains. The burningman idiots ruined a great place. Those alkaline sinks are so flat you can see the curvature of the earth. Of course, after enough beer everything is sort of curved and warped.” 1:36:27 PM 9/24/01
