It’s a you know ;.. don’t know thing,” on or off the Bus.” so to speak,( Merry Pranksters). No offence, be carefull what you ask for.
gah, never make a cat curious… I just had to do a little searching.
(bare bones info) Merry Pranksters were a group of people on an extended “road trip” party driving around the country on a psychedelic bus named Further, using marijuana and LSD and often ‘introduced’ it to others. Apparently their trip lasted from the 64 World’s Fair until 69 Woodstock. They often had music at their gatherings, house band was The Grateful Dead.
no offense whatsoever intended, my impression is that SG is somewhat of an alternative culture forum. 8)
Ah, well you got farther than I did. That was slightly before my time. And with my fever right now nothing is making scence to me right now. I probably would have gotten the vague reference if I wasn’t so sick.
Windstone collectors are too innocent for that sort of thing. We don’t need the dragons talking back to us.

Sorta before my time too, I didn’t get it at all, but once my curiosity is aroused, I have to know.
Hope you feel better soon
Okay…I just read this entire thread and I’m hopelessly confused….SG???…retailer’s valley of death???…. 😯
Talking Windstones?

Please tell me that you already knew about “The Dead”.
But good going on the research.
After that road trip headed by Ken Keisey, he settled down inbetween Goshen and Eugene OR.
Several members of the Pranksters moved to Eugene,
where they cleaned up their appearence, anyway.
Really nice folks, I painted a house interior for them, the “coffee” breaks were really good.
K.K. also by the way wrote, “Sometimes a great notion.” and “One flew over the coocoo’s nest.”
Afew years ago he took another bus ride,somewhat in epilogue.
He died a very short while later, Cancer I think.DigitalDragon wrote:Tasty crispy TROLL!!! 😈
Or not…
Not a troll. Just a hippie. *grin* Which one is worse?

Ah ok, my mistake. Well, our Island-grown hippies are very different then I think. 😆
My goodness, would you just come out and say what you mean?!
When I saw SG, I was thinking Stargate too!
So are we talking about the Grateful Dead band and what-his-name Garcia who passed away years ago?
I just read this entire thread, and I’m completely lost too. Somebody – for the love of dragons – please tell me what SG is if it’s not Stargate.
And, no, Silver, that would be JG, Jerry Garcia not SG.
Apparently it’s an “in group” that that we mundanes are not priviledged to know about.
Though if it’s so secret and covert, you’d think there would be a better way to ask about others being members than to just come out and ask it.
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’m feeling that it’s a little bit rude. Perhaps I’m being overly sensitive, but if one is going to make something public, one should just make it public. If it’s secret it should be secret. Going “I have a secret, but I’m not going to tell you about it” is a little bit third grade.
But as I said, perhaps I’m being overly sensitive to let that annoy me.
