Burning Man starts Monday.

OK, I really wish I could go. But the next best thing is the Twitter group for Burners.

So, anyone wanna go next year?

For some reason, Burning Man doesn't interest me.

In other news, Quebec police admit they were undercover at Montebello protest. Thought you'd like to know.

Yes, I knew. I also note this blatant lie:

"Police said the three were told to monitor protesters who were not peacefully demonstrating to prevent any violent incidents, but they were called out as undercover agents when they refused to throw objects."

Why not? Don't you want to run around in the blazing sun without any clothes? No? What's *wrong* with you?

(NOTE: The above was meant to be gentle teasing. Fact is, I'm not keen on running around naked in the blazing sun, either. I burn too damn easy. I'll be lounging naked in the "dark sacred night"*, m'self.)

*"The bright blessed day, and the dark sacred night, and I think to myself, what a wonderful world"

Always wanted to go, but...I'm not sure I'd survive it. From what I understand the entire festival is very social, and aside from what you can carry you're dependant upon others for everything from water to shelter. I'm anti-social and have no appreciable barter. I'm worried I'd die. :)
