But really...I'd love to see what kind of sticks you blended.

YES!!!!!!! =d>

YO, MCAddict!!!!!!!!

PLEASE "SPLAIN" to everyone around here what "BURNING MAN" is..........

I didn't know what is was till a few months ago.

A friend of mine said it was like nothing he had ever seen/been to before.(he went last year)>

A bunch of people in the desert going crazy for 1-2 weeks, 95% naked for duration and all kinds of weird activities.

Can you provde a "link" so people can check it out?

Tier 1 $210 sold out 9,000

Tier 2 $240 sold out 9,000

Tier 3 $280 sold out 9,000

Tier 4 $320 still available

How do you get to Nic for 4 days at cheaper than $300? The plane tickets cost more than that. OR are you flying on a military C130? Being a CO from the Navy I'm sure YOU would have the hook up...

How do you sell tickets to hang out in the desert I thought it was like a giant hippy caravan get together in the desert you buy tickets for it Kind of a let down.

Havn't been myself. My two hippie bosses and a co-worker always go. To quote Arlo Guthrie, "you can get anything you want at Alice's Resaurant." The total nudity people yack about? Mostly men and some women that should stay away from sporting a full Brazilian. They do have a titty parade. It's far from being a "green" event as a lot of people are always burning ****. Frankly, I'd rather spend a week in New Orleans.[gonzo]

Ain't that the truth!!

BLM kicked them off the public land in '97 or '98 (I forget which year it was exactly), since then, it's been on private land and they have to pay the owner of the property for the usage. That first year on private property, I think the tickets were $30 or $50, and I can't remember if we were charged by person or by car.

Actually it is held on BLM land on Black Rock dry lake. The promoters pay a big fat fee to hold it there. When it was "unknown" to the public in the late 80's and early 90's is when it was fun from what I here. Involved explosives and machine guns and such. [gonzo]

I didn't realize that BLM let them back on to the public land. Back in '96 or '97 they were kicked off BLM land because they left too much of a mess behind.

The early days were fun, but they got to be too dangerous, so the event organizers banned firearms the same year the started charging which was '97. That was also the last time I attended, and I stopped paying any attention to the event.

"Changes

In 1997, Burning Man reorganized, and we made our one-time venture off the playa into nearby Hualapai Valley in Washoe County. Rod Garrett was recruited to create plans and documents for compliance with County regulations. This instituted a lengthy process in developing the basic scheme from which our present city has grown."

That was the private land year - I didn't realize that they went back to BLM land the next year.

as far as the CigarFest goes.....it's kinda poor taste when the cigars the vendors are smoking while at the fest aren't exactly the same smokes they give you! like getting a Double Chat. while the guy giving you the Double Chat is smoking an Opus or getting a 2000 maddie while the guy behind the counter is smoking a PAM 64.

just an observation.

BULL **** FLAG!!![ram27bat]

He came on here to WHINE!🐴

Then he POSTURED!🐴

I'm not defending his poor behavior one bit. You can, but I'm not.

Your 2nd paragraph doesn't hold water either.

You want a steak...buy the steak. You want a burger...order a burger. Don't expect a steak when you order a burger and under NO CIRCUMSTANCES begrudge a free gift. If it's not for you, give to someone that like them.

PS: Aging a few 2K's or 5K's...you'd be surprised at how they start to taste like a 64...just sayin'.

i just happen to like the 1000 series better, but the point(which went over your monkey head) is we get a $5 smoke while THEY are smoking a $10 smoke.

get that? ...... just sayin...lol

and I probably have some 1000 series in my humi older than you so I do know what an aged Padron tastes like.

as far as "definding bad behavoir" i'm not defending anything. The guy voiced his opinion on something.

the only BAD behavior is yours!, which there is NO defense.[ram27bat] lol....lol

It seems the only people on this forum with the "right" opinions are the SAME people(avatars) over and over.

just an observation....

🐴 ...YOU GOTTA LOVE THIS ICON...HEHEHE
