“Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around - nobody big, I mean - except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff - I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be.” ― J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye
Goals Completed: 31
Goals in Progress: 25
Being one of the first ThunderDome Rangers, and monitoring the Perimeter of the the ThunderDome for the Death Guild. Drinking Jameson.
Training for Ranger Sandman for the first time, learning how to be the last line of defense for people running towards the fire - but not taking the shift because of dehydration.
Learning to drive a small art car shaped like a human brain, and driving all over the deep playa looking at the art. Never getting a chance to see inside the Man before they started loading the pyrotechnics.
Getting to shoot a flamethrower for my first time - and winning the Judging. "I win Burning Man!"
Geoevents every day, including three new difficulty combinations (#96), and bicycling everywhere (#7) to meet new geocachers all over the playa to complete the geocaching streak.
Crying at the Temple, releasing five new haiku (#33).
"Khaki, Khaki, Grim." "Go for Khaki." Khaki, I have a Green Dot transport for Sanctuary ..."
"Black Rock, CIT 51." CIT 51, Black Rock". "Black Rock, please show CIT Team 50 responding to page at Station 9... "
Getting my Ranger Fluffer massage and falling asleep - and getting so dehydrated that three EMT Rangers and all of the Ranger Fluffers made sure I got the ride to Rampart and got spiked for 3 bags.
Watching the Burn from the top of the container at Ranger Outpost Berlin - with two other Rangers, who also happen to be Masons.
