Hey.
“Yeah.”
So.
“Uh-huh.”
…
…
…
Happy anniversary?
“Get out.”
I didn’t know what to say!
“Well, not that, man.”
…
I’ll go.
“Yeah, okay.”
And I’ll take the cake I bought with me.
“I might have been too harsh.”
Yeah?
“What kind of cake is it?”
Delicious.
“That’s my favorite kind of cake.”
I know!
“You got anything to wash it down with?”
Milk?
“Or cocaine.”
I’ll check.
IS THERE CAKE? ARE THE DADDIES HAVING CAKES?
…
“Hey, Wally.”
YOU MAY CALL ME THAT, DADDY.
“Not your daddy.”
Does he think–
THE GRATEFUL DEAD ARE MY DADDIES AND I AM A GOOD WALL.
–that the Dead are…eww, that’s just creepy.
“Tell me about it.”

That VW ad caught it perfectly. Woken up by the phone ringing about 7:15 by my bestes DH friend so I wouldn’t find out from a stranger. I had just seen him at Shoreline do I wasn’t surprised.
After Shoreline I wasn’t sure that I wanted to see anymore.
All Deadheads remember where they were when they heard the news.
Life may be sweeter for him, I don’t know. Actually, yes. Yes it is. RIP Jerry.

Did someone say cake? http://youtu.be/grQ8f5oOcY4
Thank you. What a cool telling.
That was awesome.
You gotta wonder what was going on to make that man describe *anything* as “a little bit strange”…
I love how he matter of factly refers to different folks as hippies and freaks, with just a slight hint of condescension.
Thanks you
Peace and Much Groove to All Bozos & Bozettes.
strategy was his strength, not disaster.
i miss him. i would even bake a cake for him.
Me too, mom
In fact I’m making wacky cake cupcakes today just because I can
i wish i could have one!
🙂 🙂
Thanks…
Warning to others, do not read whatever the non-dead head world chooses to write about Jerry today. Non fans just mix things up and make you even sadder and angrier.
I am closing my laptop and going for a walk.

Well, now I want to know what it was specifically…

It was this article for starters, and maybe another one.

The author skimmed Billy’s book, and Phil’s book and then summarized Jerry’s life by listing the drugs he used.
Like summarizing Van Gogh by reminding us that he was mentally ill, or Kerouac by reminding us that he was an alcoholic, or Lincoln by talking about how fucking ugly his was.
Sure Van Gogh was crazy, Kerouac was a drunk, and Lincoln was ugly.. and Jerry had his addictions, but that is no way to summarize their lives.
Your other post gets to the point rather well, thanks.
Its a popular shirt at A.A. meetings.
Quitters.
Blackmore got his shirt upon completion of doin’ 30 days at Betty Ford.
Your mom did Betty Ford.
