Jeff Doucette: Nate

Quotes 

• Nate : Hey, you guys, y'want a little Stanley?

  [he sprays several people with a Super Squirter] 

  Reese : What's Stanley?

  Nate : Ahh, Stanley was a buddy of mine. We been comin' to Burning Man together almost 20 years.

  [he sprays another passer-by] 

  Nate : Anyway, he passed on over the Winter, and he always said he wanted his ashes scattered here, kind of as a way of spreading the spirit of Burning Man to the people and the family he loved.

  [more spraying] 

  Reese : And you're allowed to do that? Spray a dead guy on people? I got suspended for a week for putting a mouse's head on the end of my pencil.

  Nate : Burning Man's all about freedom, Dude. You can do whatever you want here.

  Reese : [incredulous, he starts pointing at possible examples]  Whatever I want! You mean, I could kick this over, or break that?

  Nate : Well, I guess if you really felt you had to.

  Reese : Doesn't that kind of take the fun out of mindless destruction?

  Nate : That's what the flaming catapult's for!

  [they watch it streak across the sky]
