OK I know it's open season on Burning Man but I also thought this skit perfectly captured the difficulty of relating ANY adventure, including epic windsurfing sessions, to friends and family. Enjoy!

Never heard of burning man..is it on PBS?

It sort of reminded me of the 3Stooges meet Gillian's Island

Each to their own of course

Broken Marriages...Check
Dazed when it ends...Check
Waiting hours for the climax....Check
Shortage of women...Check

Otherwise, Burning Man is a drug filled, sex filled, debauchery filled, drunken orgy. I personally know a handful of 40 something women who not only got worked over in the orgy tent, but also ruined their marriages. Kinda similar to windsurfing.

Didn't watch the vid, but there was some dusty windsurfing at BM this time, but I'm glad it wasn't me.

Yes, believe it or not. Debauchery. That photo of the land windsurfer conjures visions of hell.
