ok... i'm at the point where i feel that i'm back to civilized world and get things rolling.

now, i have reflected back on what i have seen at the burning man so you can get a fair idea what the festival is like:

- numerous numbers of vast art installations in just one area
- naked teens, college students, married couples, and of course nude senior citizens that you might want try to avoid.
- tight sense of community (no cash giving allowed - only bartering and hug exchanges)
- creative re-use of environment on a dry playa
- creative use of mutant vehicles (memo to self: build a mushroom vehicle)
- creative, wacky costumes that would make halloween look meaningless and pointless.
- full of bicycles that would compete with china for being populous town with bike owners
- a few 'porta-fuck' tents which was pretty hilarious for any interested couple
- temporary town that comes very ALIVE during the evenings filled with many dazzling, electrifying lights (makes me wonder where did they get so much of watts from in this middle of nowhere?)
- many psychedelic junks everywhere that you may intake by accident (that happened to my darling lady)
- a live 'Pizza Smut' cardboard shelter with a few peepholes on the walls
- many whiteouts (fun to experience for once)
- a dicky box (google on it. it's not as dirty as you would expect)
- a naked couple having a nice long BJ and a dirty cowgirl ride on a trampoline in a broad daylight in front of all the bypassers in our theme camp.
- and for the big encore: we almost got instantly killed by a falling huge swing set after a few people actually overswung and caused the support and set to fall apart thus nearly hitting our heads. luckily, i was watching them swing so hard that i could see that the set was going to fall and when it did, with quick reflection, i pulled my unsusipicious wife with me away and had we been standing where we originally were, we would gotten a big blow to our heads for sure.

so, to sum this up, i thank burning man for such an exhilarating ride and i hope to come back again next year! if you wanna join us, buy the 2006 tickets right away because that's when it'll be the cheapest ones you'll ever seen before prices start to climb every month!
