This is something I am doing to see how I compare to Candace Brightman.
I would rather just sell you my music, I have like the best song about tarot cards ever, The Flowers Are Purple And The Sky Is Blue, I play in quality tuning 432, not the bullshit 440 that misses the mark like the Grateful Dead, I am a vegetarian, and I might be the only good musician ever.

So one year I was channeling dead Jerry and he says to me, “Do me a favor will ya?

Run down to the 711 and grab me some cigs. Unfiltered Camels.
And some Häagen-Dazs. Chocolate mint. And a hot dog.” From heaven? How cool is that?

Judit,
Judit,
Please maybe reconsider. It's dog days of summer and things are, well....I'll say it, things are getting a little dull around here. It's refreshing to have a new Zoner capable of paranormal communication. I for one would like witness a seance with Jerry during the Days Between. My question is, can we call any version of Jerry or just the Jerry when he died? (I'd like to speak to 1975 Jerry so he can still remember stories from the previous decade.) Maybe we can stream the whole thing and raise money for Viva, too.
If the experiment is successful I will buy a vegetable CD.

Alan, I get what you're saying, and upon reconsidering, I'd be happy for him to put a thread together along the same lines as this one began, but without sales or business involved. I love your ideas. Paranormal communication? Sure, and I hope you can ask the questions you're thinking of and perhaps even get answers..

Well unfortunately I think those deleted posts were a clever ruse by the Cyclosporiasis lobby to have us keep eating all the recalled Fruits and Vegetables. Those songs about tasty chopped lettuce sure made me want to run right down to Taco Bell, consequences be damned.
(For those that missed it, the OP's resume included stints as an ordained Garcia clairvoyant, a poet, a world-class musician hawking his CDS, a budding globe trotter, and general all around mystic proselytizing about the virtues of only worshiping the plant kingdom. For a minor Go Fund Me donation he/she offered little more than torn up tarot cards, some old raisins, and questionable tidbits of wisdom.)

^ Listen Mike, let's not go there. Some stories are best left untold. Remember, there is "Estimated Prophet" crazy and there is "Fluffhead" crazy. No normal person is going to post here, but we gotta keep things mellow so as not to draw attention to ourselves from the Steve Miller Homeland Security bots looking for counterculture remnants and wandering lunatics kicked off of Eggy tour. (We're just a bunch of old American music enthusiasts; nothing to see here.) Now let's just tiptoe back out of this thread gently and lock the door behind us. Meet ya in the Social Security thread later.

All due respect to Judit and the kinder, gentler Viva, I miss those rides.

I thought it might've been Zippy in the Have you seen this man? thread the other day.
This FruitsandVegetables guy reminded me of that GIG guy on the old Zone who claimed to be in China.

Baer does get around. I was looking at an old surf mag ca. 1971 and saw a letter from him complainng that construction of the new Arizona wave pool "Big Surf" (first of its kind) had decimated the peyote plants growing there.

OP obviously pales in comparison with Candace. "Mental Jerry" I could see though.
