Bearwhalea

They frame the wildest theories upon the most irrelevant facts, or upon the merest fancies. Mr. Darwin thinks that whales may be bears which have enormously increased their bulk, washed their paws into fins by constant swimming, and stretched their mouths by keeping them open to catch insects in the water. So also he thinks that men and women may have been developed out of monkeys, monkeys out of mushrooms, and mushrooms out of ” monads,” or little clots of jelly. Where is the proof? Where is a single instance of a bearwhale, or a man-monkey, to be seen? Of course there is not one.

At the Body Shop, we believe bodies require regular maintenance. Our shop is a whimsical place where the worn down burner can relax their mind, refresh their body, and enjoy themselves for a bit before continuing on their journey. In the style of an auto-body repair shop, we are staffed with friendly mechanics ready to appraise, repair, and certify all of the bodies on the playa. Guests will enjoy a full gamut of traditional tune-ups reimagined for the human body: buffing, lubrication, oil change, painting, fueling, and waxing. We look forward to servicing you!
