Back in high school I'd buy drugs from a burner who lived in a warehouse in downtown LA. His roommate Arcane had some badass metalwork sculptures of fish and stuff. I would have loved to go back then but I think being surrounded by all of that would annoy me.

September 3rd. "There she blows," was sung out from the mast-head.
"Where away?" demanded the captain.
"Three points off the lee bow, sir."
"Raise up your wheel. Steady!"
"Steady, sir."
"Mast-ahead ahoy! Do you see it now?"
"Ay ay, sir! A shoal of posts by Maige! There she blows! There she breaches!"
"Sing out! sing out every time!"
"Ay ay, sir! There she blows! there-there-thar she blows-bowes-bo-o-o-s!"
"How far off?"
"Right above us, sir!"
"Thunder and lightning! so near! Call all hands!"

I want to go but I don't know anyone close enough who has been there before.
I will NOT go with a bunch of noobs.

Drugs?
Sex?
Burning Man has always seemed so lame to me
its not about drugs or sex...or even the parties surrounding it...its about joining with other human beings, showing that when you strip everything away, people are pretty damn resourceful and creative and are willing to join together to create an alternative society. its about taking yourself out of the normal modern comforts of everyday life, pushing your brain to think outside of the box and identify with your senses. i think its pretty neat and obviously multiple thousands of other people do too. if your brain aint ready, it aint ready...

how old are you?!
I definitely want to experience it. But I don't think I can do the whole week for my 1st time. I kinda of want to get a taste of it first then maybe go longer the following years.
