'Dust is not a recreational drug'

Traveller in Time Reporting Bugs -o-o- Broken the chain of Pliny -o-o- Hired

For the next days I will invest my time less in HooToo and more in the observation of a community being build out in the Nevada desert.

This may not be their idea behind the event, that is by not participating in the event I would be a spectator. Well I will make and burn my own work of art made out of tooth picks and broken clothes pegs.

They manage to build a city in less then two weeks, populate it with some 60 thousand Burners, then take over a month to remove the MOOP.

Some may think it is a hippie commune, some may think it is about sex drugs and rock and roll. I think it is about opening your mind and making room for new experiences, new concepts. To expect the unexpected, but you have to be able to allow anything to happen.

I do not have the money to participate nor the courage I think. I do know in some aspects I would love the experience, 'Share and Enjoy', being in a desert and in reflex having made enough preparations. (Mr Baden-Powell is not unknown to me.)

I do remember a summer with an ongoing beach party for more then a month. Playing a drive out and having an apple ready as excuse for the barbecue during the endless nights at the beach.

Waiting time at the gate between two and five hours (The event has not even started jet, these pre arrivals are the artists and workers to build large objects)

"There is a smiley - cat (12m long and tail reaching 4m tall) chasing a smiley - shark (some 20m long also with a 4m tall tail). The smiley - shark was chasing smiley - dragons (A big red one and a smaller green scaled one) but the smiley - dragons got away by distracting it with some fireballs. (the smiley - dragons have an articulated neck and tail)

Think the rhino is only a little danger for the floating smiley - island (with palm trees and a beach)

Still have not recognised the floating forest I sometimes see at night, perhaps it is the shifting castle I see at day. I think the zeppelin is an art car with a 'Big Sound System' as I only see it at the distance beyond the 'Big Sound Camps'.

There are some 4 or 5 square riggers patrolling the playa together with several motor yachts. Must be they aresearching for the smiley - island or the Pier from some years back.

The CORE projects surrounding the man have been cleared yesterday afternoon. The midway maze was again open last night (read blog by Caveat) but is closed for the preparation of the Man burn tonight.

You tube stream was down this morning between 7 and 9 smiley - erm Black Rock City time. Proibably as they had to clean the dome smiley - wow there are colours again.

Thunderdome advertises you can fight 'No chainmail underwear allowed' smiley - handcuffs

Listening to DJ LED on BMIR, always hoping the next DJ will be Raindog. This British English speaking DJ plays the most unpredictable sounds and music of all. He challenges visitors to play their CD with toe nail cutting sounds or whatever if they bring him a fitting bribe. smiley - biggrin Lacking that we can hear excerpts of the HHGTTG smiley - towel radio plays.
