Now Who's The Man?

I love this guy. He's my new favorite person. EVER. Not that I begrudge burners their man-burning festivities, but spontaneity used to be the soul of the event. In the early days, an early man-burning coinciding with the eclipse would have been looked at with delightful, anti-authoritarian glee. Now ~gasp~ the burning man "authorities" have turned the poor guy over to the police, the real po-po, the Man:

Paul Addis, 35, of San Francisco, was booked into the Pershing County, Nev., jail on suspicion of arson, illegal possession of fireworks, destruction of property and resisting a public officer, according to the sheriff's department. He posted a $25,632 bond, a sheriff's dispatcher said.

Admit it. It's over people. Go do something new.
