What's happening this week near Reno, NV?

BURNING MAN

What does that mean you might ask? It means a bunch of crazy people go out into the middle of nowhere, more specifically, the Black Rock Desert, and dress up or dress down all in the name of "art". It's like Woodstock without all the bands, mardi gra without the parade or the beads, the entertainment at Fishermans Wharf in San Francisco without the cops all rolled into one very dusty week long event. I have never been but I have seen the parade of cars coming home all covered in grayish white dust. I have seen the people with week old grime, sweat, and dust caked on their face, arms, and clothes. People love it. I have friends that go every year regardless of the cost. I should go sometime. I just don't like to get dirty.

Here is a good video representing what it is like at Burning Man:
