Goodbye, Doc Thompson

Hey folks,

We lost a literary giant this week, and a true madman. The world won't be the same Hunter S. Thompson.

So, in honor of the blown away, I thought I would share this with you all:

It is, as far as I know, the last article to be published before his death (correct me if I'm wrong), but it's an especially good one, I thought. So read it, then go to a used bookstore somewhere and find more of his work. Madness like his is rare and must be cherished and celebrated.

We'll miss you, Doc.
