Dr. Gonzo Dead
Hunter S. Thompson is dead, he shot himself.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7005168/ ASPEN, Colo. - Hunter S. Thompson, the acerbic counterculture writer who popularized a new form of fictional journalism in books like “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,” fatally shot himself Sunday night at his home, his son said. He was 67. Damn, that's all I got to say, damn. |

I hope he brought enough drugs and booze for a very long trip with him.
Very sad. |

Words to live by. RIP Dr. Gonzo. |

Re: Dr. Gonzo Dead
It was probably the only way that tortured soul could relieve himself. Such a mad, great mind that will be sorely missed by many of us. Who knows, perhaps his doctor had recently told him he was dying from something... Thompson wouldn't let some little thing like cancer kill him if he could take care of it himself [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
Unfortunately for me, I'll never get to meet him now. I've often daydreamed while in that bar in Aspen that has his Sherrif's campaign poster from 1970 over the bar (an election he only lost by some 500 votes). In the fantasy I'm sitting there drinking a beer and he strolls through the door looking for a case of oranges and five bottles of tequila. RIP Dr. Gonzo |
