    Would I be correct in saying that your grandfather knows that his meeting with God is near and the burning of his life Bible is merely a step in becoming one with God?

    Or am I totally off-base? I don't know if I quite understand.

        They are very interesting, at least to someone like me who has'nt even heard of Burning Man, but holds quite an interest in such an event.

        Thanks.
        Yeah, please publish all your pics!

                  Besides...you look absolutely fabu in the pink ;)

                          Great pics, with an even better story. Would you be opposed to talking about Burning Man more at a show or something? I'm curious and would like to hear more from someone who sounds like they know the full deal of it.

                                    The camera is a Canon G-5. Love it.

                                    The temple is different each year. The one in the pics is burned and gone forever. The overall theme of Burning Man is that everything is transitory. Many people have been shocked that I burned my grandpa's bible. But he, more than most, understands the transitory nature of life.

                                    Thanks for the thoughts. Truly.

                                    I still have a few more photos to post and an overview of the event that I'm hoping to post on Amelia and Forrest's BlueBlood.net.

                                    JM (or anyone) I love talking about Burning Man...looking forward to it.

                                          Thanks so much for sharing your images and story, Halcyon.

                                          I went to Burning Man just once, six years ago.

                                          All I can say is there are singular places and moments in all our lives, when that which has been forever trying to form in our mind's eye gathers verifiable and undeniable solidity. Simply for having seen and touched, we are never the same after that.

                                          It happened to me there.

                                          I wish I were able to say "Go to Burning Man..." to anyone in need of a spiritual epiphany, and believe they would actually FIND there, as I FOUND. But I know better than to try to "prescribe" a miracle of enlightenment for anyone.

                                          I will say this, though: "If you EVER find yourself in the company of a person who seems to be more than considering the idea of going to Burning Man, and more than considering the idea of YOU going with them, at a time when you, yourself, are in a place of sufficient whimsy, detachment from responsibility, and preparedness for change in your OWN life to possibly go -- then fucking GO!"

                                          j-
                                          tada!

                                                            Why is it that some people are so obsessed with who is gay and calling others gay like it is an insult? I think the people who are so worried about who is gay and who isn?t just aren?t getting enough.

                                                            Hal, drop me a email so we can hook up for a drink.

                                                                    I went to Burning Man just once, six years ago.

                                                                    All I can say is there are singular places and moments in all our lives, when that which has been forever trying to form in our mind's eye gathers verifiable and undeniable solidity. Simply for having seen and touched, we are never the same after that.

                                                                    It happened to me there.

                                                                    I wish I were able to say "Go to Burning Man..." to anyone in need of a spiritual epiphany, and believe they would actually FIND there, as I FOUND. But I know better than to try to "prescribe" a miracle of enlightenment for anyone.

                                                                    I will say this, though: "If you EVER find yourself in the company of a person who seems to be more than considering the idea of going to Burning Man, and more than considering the idea of YOU going with them, at a time when you, yourself, are in a place of sufficient whimsy, detachment from responsibility, and preparedness for change in your OWN life to possibly go -- then fucking GO!"

                                                                    j-

                                                                        i think hal hit the nail on the head. i think those people that find it necessary to LABEL are the ones with problems - whether they're straigh or gay. most animals are bi - and love regarless of gender or labels. -it's more natural and just feels better. sure they may lean towards one or the other for most of their life -but they're OPEN to the idea of one or the other if it's the right person.

                                                                        there's nothing worse or more disgusting to me then a closed mind

                                                                            Or am I totally off-base? I don't know if I quite understand.

                                                                                          however... here I am, never having gone yet. I think next year it's a plan.

                                                                                            Not sure about posting them on this board though. Trying to discuss Burning Man here is like trying to smell roses through a heap of fertilizer.

Although I can't say that I truly understand Burning Man, it does appear to be very interesting and emotional. Being able to let go of material things and all of the baggage they carry with them is extremely difficult for most people. I would be interested in going one time to see and experience the event.

                                                                                                      BTW, I admire the fact that you are so comfortable with yourself that you can proudly wear pink. I wish I had that kind of courage.
