I got it that Thompson was pushin' the envelope a bit, as he did with everything. He wrote that in the 60's when most of his readers were completely off their t*ts anyway...

Hunter was a genius. One of Gods own prototypes. Too weird to live, too rare to die.

Yeah. Shame he died by suicide tho. I'd expect something slightly more dramatic.

"The Doctor of Gonzo journalism was found naked surrounded by drug paraphernalia and the body parts of a full grown male rhinocerous. It is believed that he was attempting to eat said rhino, believing it to be dead, when the rhino awoke.

Why the good doctor was naked is anyone's guess..."

At least he got a (comparatively) dramatic send off though. Unusual, if nothing else. But then, was there anything usual about HST?!
