The death of of the "Duke": the tragic end of Hunter S. Thompson
 

To all Cellar dwellers, the passing of Hunter S. Thompson this weekend is a loss to political satire/writing. He will be sorely missed by this writer, a true pioneer of the HL Mencken strain. His Fear and Loathing on the campaign trail was one of the best blow by blows of a modern campaign ever to grace the printed page. Let us all lift up a glass of Wild Turkey tonight and drink to Hunter. So long and Mahalo Hunter, you were truly one of the greats.

I read over here he might have been murdered. :eek:

Where were you when the HST murder internet rumour began?

The guy got paid to do stuff the rest of us would just do time for... how cool is that?
