Copperheads, Jerry Garcia.
We are in the middle of 9 days of Jerry. He was born August 1st and died August 9th. I pay extra respect during this time and remember many good times. I know there are plenty of Heads on here, so post up.
Also, this week there are probably big wall guys and gals dealing with small pieces of mashed up metal in granite. Discuss...

"Deal"
Words by Robert Hunter; music by Jerry Garcia
Copyright Ice Nine Publishing;
Since it cost a lot to win
and even more to lose
You and me bound to spend some time
wondring what to choose
Goes to show you don't ever know
Watch each card you play
and play it slow
Wait until your deal come round
Don't you let that deal go down
I been gambling here abouts
for ten good solid years
If I told you all that went down
it would burn off both your ears
It goes to show you don't ever know
Watch each card you play
and play it slow
Wait until your deal come round
Don't you let that deal go down
Since you poured the wine for me
and tightend up my shoes
I hate to leave you sittin there
composin lonesome blues
It goes to show you don't ever know
Watch each card you play
and play it slow
Wait until your deal come round
Don't you let that deal go down
Don't you let that deal go down, no
Don't you let your deal go down

The Dead and climbing used to go hand in hand for me...

Does the term "deadhead" have anything to do with the lack of brain function?

In fact it is just the opposite.
Deadhead = extraordinary brain function

I thought that "good head" referred to something else.

SEE That!
Peter's post proves that as far as the Atomic Broom goes, "DR did not act alone."
Like I keep tellin' ya, Jerry is behind me all the way. Anyone eavesdropping on my boom box below Temple Crag would have little doubt.

The headline in the SF Chronicle announcing Jerry Garcia's death was a classic:

Got the Deacal, the other day Btw, Muchos Garcias!
I sported a '94 Chinese New year shirt (year of the Dawg) to the last wide Wednesday. My family took mom (then 70) to that concert. She loved it, bought a shirt, framed it and had Chasbro get her a concert tape...
