Remembering Jerry


Today Aug. 9th. marks the 9th. anniversary of Jerry Garcia's death at age 53. I hope he's in a place with no MP3's, no leisure suites, but in a land of big resin laden buds, jamming and partying with all of the other musical illuminati who left us far too soon!

"...Addiction is a sickness not a choice..."

Everybody's a victim, huh? What in the HELL happened to personal responsibility?

He CHOSE to use drugs. He BECAME addicted. He could have CHOSEN to quit. He CHOSE to keep smoking HEROIN and God know what else.

Would he have still been an addict had he not CHOSEN to use drugs? I think not.

So you see...It seems to me that addiction is not so much a CHOICE, rather a result of BAD CHOICES.

Six of one, half-a-dozen of the the other!
