With respect to the no-dancing prohibitions, I strongly recommend that you see the documentary film "Footloose."

Burning Man 2000: What a Good Time THAT Was!
2000-07-30 21:56:00
Well, it's only been a few months since the event, but already some of the photos from Burning Man 2000 are starting to appear on the World Wide Web. Some of the best coverage so far is from PlayaChicken.com!
So, usually Pigdog Journal gives you great coverage of Burning Man and all the weird shit that happens there. We are, as they say, excellent journalists and we cover the breaking news of the Bad People community in record time.
However, we had SUCH a good time at the event this spring, we really haven't been able to snap out of it and write up the requisite reports. It was such a different atmosphere, such a strange topsy-turvy change, that we had a really uncannily EXCELLENT time. It has left our reporting skills severely damaged, though.
Luckily, the folks at PlayaChicken.com have done a real nice photo album with great pictures from this year's event. You should check it out. I'm not sure, but I think that's El Snatcher waiting in line for the porta-terlets on page 5!

The Cross Canadian Ragweed Red Dirt Roundup
Went to one of the only really enjoyable outdoor concerts I can remember (maybe I didn't enjoy it enough). The finest in dirty hillbilly music: The Cross Canadian Ragweed Red Dirt Roundup. For those ignorants, Cross Canadian Ragweed is a horrendous allergan in Texas, and it's also a band. In a great show of humility, CCR was the worst major act in their line up. Fortunately, they have talented friends. (More...)

The IBM Selectric Typewriter Changed My Life
I ran my hands lovingly across her frame, lightly brushing her metallic nipples with my fingers, admiring the shapes and the ways of her curves, the empathetic hum she produced as I had my way with her, the way she made it all seem so effortless and right... she didn't even seem to mind the way I roughly manipulated her knobs and tweaked her casing. She was extremely tolerant, for a typewriter. (More...)
