| What do you think of the Grateful Dead without Jerry Garcia? | | The Grateful Dead are playing near my town this weekend. I've been a Dead fan for years now but I'm not sure how I feel about the Dead without Jerry. I still think it would be an amazing experience to go regardless, but my husband thinks that it would be a waste of time and money since there is is no Dead without Jerry. What do you think? | |
| | Jerry Garcia | | Do you like Jerry Garcia's music? I haven't listened to much of it, so far my favorite song is "Shady Grove". | |
|
| Any Grateful Dead fans on this site? | | I just did a search and could not find a single post about this band! Any fans out there, and if so what are some of your favorite songs by them?? | |
| | Grateful Memories | | Happy New Year all!! We are thinking about adding a new page to our website.. www.justthegratefuldead.com

| Having your opinions validated is a wonderful feeling. Thank you Mr. Powell. | | Perhaps Jerry Garcia would have sung, "What a long strange campaign it's been!" if he were around to witness the present presidential race. We have seen bizarre plot twists all along the way in this one.
Hillary came THIS CLOSE to getting nominated to be the first female candidate from a major party. Barrack threw his hat into the ring officially on the anniversary of the the I Have A Dream speech, emphasizing his triumph in a historical step for minorities. Then McCain brought Sarah Palin on board for his running mate, marking a great step for women in politics.
Today the latest new-unusual-boarding-on-bizarre occurence. Colin Powell, who is one of the president's major right hand men, and a Republican, spoke up declaring his support for Obama, the Democratic candidate. He even attempted to sound apologetic to Bush, but in listening to his declaration it was clear he is without regret about his decision. In fact, he went so far as to state publicly that he will vote for Obama. This absolutely thrills me personally. Even though I won't vote in the US now because I live in Canada, I strongly believe Obama has what it takes to be President and turn things around for the US.
