Graveyard Fuck 

This is where a bloke has sex with a woman who is, quite literally old enough to be his granny. There is no love or even liking involved, it is usually done or a bet, to score points off someone, or for some other reason. If the woman is wealthy or a celebrity, he is known as a toy boy and she is known as a cougar. If a woman indulges in a graveyard fuck, it’s invariably with a man who is rich and powerful and she expects marriage to result. In both these cases it’s usually just for the money so I suppose really they’re just whores and it’s not really a graveyard fuck.
Look at that old bat, she’s all over Danny like a rash!
That’s what happens when you get pissed and have a graveyard fuck.

13 point Grateful Dead bolt 

Theee 13 point Grateful Dead lightning bolt is located inside of the stealie. The logo was always on the bands equipment and eventually symbolized the band itself. When you see the 13 point bolt(or of course... the stealie) you have encountered a fractal of the Grateful Dead's essence, a piece/part of them. SMILE!!!
The 13-point lightning bolt was derived from a stencil Owsley Bear(along with his close friend Bob Thomas)created to spray-paint on the Grateful Dead's equipment. Owsley was an underground lsd cook/ longtime soundman and financier for the dead)

The Dead in those days had to play in a lot of festival style shows where the equipment would all wind up at the back of the stage in a muddle, it was created to help the crew find the Dead's equipment in the jumble of multiple bands' identical black equipment boxes at festivals.

The lightning bolt design came to him after seeing a similar design on a roadside advertisement: "One day in the rain, I looked out the side and saw a sign along the freeway which was a circle with a white bar across it, the top of the circle was orange and the bottom blue. I couldn't read the name of the firm, and so was just looking at the shape. A thought occurred to me: if the orange were red and the bar across were a lightning bolt cutting across at an angle, then we would have a very nice, unique and highly identifiable mark to put on the equipment."
I got a 13 point Grateful Dead bolt tattooed behind my left ear to show my everlasting love for jerry, the band, and the rest of the crew. Peace love Space.

doorwall 

A door wall is a sliding-glass door or patio door. The term is yet another example of banal Michigan vernacular, where in the residents latch on to company names, trademark names, marketing terms and product names from local companies. The terms become embedded in the local vocabulary and eventually become accepted as actual valid words and phrases. In this case the term comes from Wallside Windows in Taylor, MI (a large window manufacturer), where 'door wall' is their created word for sliding-glass door.
"Bob! John's gonna bring over them doorwalls from Wallsides on Tuesdee afternoon 'round two-thirty. Get 'er done!"
