Camper Bios - 2014

 

Jimmy MacName "JimyMac" aka "Burgin Jim" aka "Jim McCready"

Where do you call home? Gilbert, AZ

Been to Burning Man before? No. My wife & I are 10 year veterans of Fantasy Fest in Key West Florida, but never BM. I have wanted to attend for years.?

Why Burning Man? I guess I'm still searching for the "Meaning of Life" and I know I identify with the folks of Black Rock City and the philosophy of PP.

About Me- I'm a bit of a wild card. After college, I spent 20 years as a small town funeral director in Nebraska. I got my "get out of Nebraska free card" in 1991 when I moved to AZ. I had been involved with the funeral insurance side of the "deathcare industry" for the past 15 years before retirement this year. My wife & I have been married for 46 years which is a miracle in itself, but we are still hanging in there. We've been past participants in the Canyon State Nudists and have experimented with various lifestyles through the years.

Due to pain management from broken bones due to compulsive bicycle racing and crashes, I became a "legal toker" last year in Arizona. I was a guitar and lead vocals in a band in the 70's before I crippled my left hand in the previously mentioned crash. I love music and art and karaoke and bicycling and sailing. I look forward to some intellectual conversation and can't wait to meet all of the PP campers.

Cheers,

JimyMac
