I've got some pre-meeting things to share.

put your ludicrous pants back on. or take em off. whatever's clever

For those of you who don't know him, let me introduce my friend Dan

He's about to be camping with us. Besides being a dear buddy of mine, he's also (as i understand it) the only member of camp chomp & stomp WHO HAS A TICKET. how about that. well done dan. you worked that lottery. worked 'em real good. while this photo may be communicating "IM ABOUT TO JUMP OUT OF A PLANE!!," it also seemed fitting for "I JUST GOT TWO TICKETS TO BURNING MAN!!"

Dan (and others reading), here are the founding members of what will be Camp CHOMP & STOMP. from left, Hommood, Becky, Jen and yours truly. notice our large smiles

My cousin Max also came two years ago. there was much expansive-outskirt-dancing and requesting of fire. 

Here's Max getting choke slammed in a mexican wrestling ring.

Last year Luke and Alexandra were added to the group. Here we all are with some other wonderful folks in front of a giant cat. (luke and alex in back center) 

Meeeeeeooooooowwwwww......

So welcome Dan

alright folks....

Check it out. its some sort of a newsletter. i think i'll call it a schmooze-letter. 

Its for Camp CHOMP & STOMP - our beloved razzle-dazzle, snack-attack, comfy-for-your-rumpfy child-to-be-camp of this upcoming burning man.

Will this be a regular schmooze-letter? shit. I don't know. probably not. but maybe! its happenin' right now, thats for sure. and you're in it! For the most part this is gonna be a supplement to the quasi-regular skype-machine team meetings, of which we have had one. and what a one it was!

If you're reading this and you have yet to commit to coming to Burning Man, let this schooze-letter be the beginning of a great saga of persuasion. I know how it goes - hell its only February.... but its already February! I just want to make sure you guys get a periodic re-amping. lets turn those burns into BURN!!!!s shall we?

You heard the news, I heard the news.... no tickets from the ticket lottery. none of us? really? Wommmmmmp womp. I imagine you were down in the dumps for a couple of days when the results came out. I know, I was there too. but fuck that. what is this? Camp dump and slump!? No way. We're all going. We'll get tickets. You know this, I know this. there was never any doubt. so lets plow ahead - lets plow like some crazy ass steam engine plow.

fuck yeah. get 'em steam engine plow.
