I can't remember who posted the article a couple of weeks ago about the Burning Man Festival, but I found it interesting, and not being able to sleep tonight I got back up and got on the computer- Yahoo News has a couple of articles on the festival and what happened this week- I won't spoil it for you if you like to read about things first. But I found it very interesting. Thanks for bringing something new to my little part of the world.

itching burning sm
It's a very embarrassing subject, had to bring it up with two docs. Both ignored it. I ended up diagnosing myself, it was a pain med I was on, stopped when I discontinued. Had them after pregnancy, used hot baths, then hemorrhoidal ointment. Sometimes the hot baths will dry the skin, thus the itching. Bubble baths are also VERY bad for both the anal and genital area. Don't blame your husband yet, could be an allergy to something, i.e. new laundry soap, etc. Good luck with it.
Any one out there using a wood burning - sm
stove for heat? Preferably a Glacier Bay stove but if not please feel free to chime in. We just bought an old Glacier Bay wood stove so we can supplement our propane heat next winter as the cost of propane is a bit higher this year and he hears they plan to start taxing it to death soon, so we figured this is a good way to cut costs, etc. This particular stove has 2 decorative embossed doors on the front with a winter cottage scene, house in snow/pine trees, really very nice. Apparently originally they were highlighted wtih a bronze or silver finish, according to the sales brochure the previous (or original) owner had. Really very nice looking. They were a rusty gray which my DH refinished yesterday and painted black with the stove paint they gave us. The previous owner refinished everything but the doors. They are solid steel. So my question is does anyone have any idea how we could refinish the doors to their original glory? Or where we may take them to get them restored? It looks great now but obviously would look fantastic if we could re-highlight the higher raised parts of the scene. If I can figure out how to post picture I may do that later today.
You might have something burning in the back or underneath. I'd have someone look at it. Could be

The Burning Man website is even more interesting - sm
reading. I'm addicted to the photo gallery, and there are all sorts of articles on "how to survive Burning Man", (lots of which is how to camp in a hostile desert climate & environment, and still leave no trace when you leave, etc.) My friends are there right now.... can't wait to hear how it was once they get back (and of course to read about it on the B.Man website.
(Type in "burning man" on Google, and look for their official website.) Not being that big a fan of camping or the desert, I myself am looking forward to San Francisco's "mini" Burning Man event, the Decompression festival held in the city on Indiana St. in October. A nice taste of all the fun, fire, music, art cars and general craziness, without the sand or the long drive! ;)
I've used it with slight burning for 3-4 days.

OK, I'll prove my ignorance, what or where is Burning Man?

Party in SF as a send-off for friends leaving for Burning Man.
I'd love go myself, but can't afford it.....
