    They're doing fantastic. Keri has gone back to work. This Ukraine thing has her a bit upset. I won't express my opinion about Ukraine in here!

    Can't argue the Nit Wit part, that is true. Never underestimate the power of large quantities of stupid people.

    Unfortunately off road vehicles would not have helped much in this case.

    That place is a huge sediment filled lake. The surface dries out in the summer and refills a bit during winter storms... First storm came early this year.

    F it I want to go. Party like 1999. Just need water, food, mres, a generator, winabego. It sounds spendy. Ticket plus vehicle pass. 550 plus 150. It's a bit of money. Oh if you join a camp it's another $500 to 2k.

    I considered going back in the '90s, Some of the art chicks are one nite stand/long weekend hot.

    Group that was trying to get me to go came back and said they could no longer recommend it for me. Still wanted my help with their stuff but knew I would not be happy hanging with that many druggies and drunks.

    Went once for a day, that was as long as I could stand the stank. I mean evil rotting meat stench. But the view there was #### nice. Might have stayed overnight but the Lorrie was with.

    It's called burning man because of all the diseases you're gonna pick up there.
    They got a beaver eating contest. :eek:

    I have never done drugs. I don't know if I would like it. But it seems like an outer body experience that might be a fun trip to take in burning man. Not drugs just the scene. Rather than being standard Midwest truck driver type. Look I'm home it's taco Tuesday. Not art car shooting flames everywhere night. Then I wonder how many trust fund babies are there. That detached view from reality would get to me.
