-you can apparently be lead around by a leash via a sounding rod stuck in your penis
-clowns and mortal men are vicious enemies when put into a ThunderDome
-pianos are grown in the desert
-dust storms are awesome when riding bicycles with two other people who look like they belong in a sci-fi movie
-Q: can it be done while on fire? A: Yes.
-committing suicide sometimes doubles as installation art
-watching a world record fireball being made gets extremely warm extremely quick


I think my favorite moment of Burning Man was taking the bike out for a quick ride on the playa to watch the sunset and incidentally being recruited into the Sith army... which then led into a giant 300-400+ people light saber battle in the middle of the desert... which then led to the army grouping together and rushing Center Camp... which then led to everybody doing the Time Warp and dancing to a rock version of Pink Elephants on Parade.

And that was only one hour in Black Rock City.
