on the Grateful Dead topic, I heard this and was stunned


Jul 28, 2021, 2:28 PM

evidently Jerry Garcia's birthday is this week, somebody on the radio was talking about it.
I never kept up with them much, never really got into their music.

Anyways, you know how old Jerry Garcia was when he died? (scroll down)











53.
FIFTY-THREE.


I woulda bet money he was in his mid-70's when he died.

Brad Brownell: Only Larry freaking Shyatt has a WORSE overall winning percentage among Clemson basketball coaches since 1975. Let that sink in. It's Larry Shyatt & then Brad Brownell.


heroine, diabetes, cigarettes, stress, bad genes

Late during the very late 70's and early 80's he was aging like a dog (7 years for every human year)

I remember Backstreets had a day of mourning.

Might have been more like a week or a month, much like my wife has Birthday Month.
