Football Season is Over

“No More Games.  No More Bombs.  No More Walking.  No More Fun.  No More Swimming.  67.  That is 17 years past 50.  17 more than I needed or wanted.  Boring.  I am always bitchy.  No Fun – for anybody.  67.  You are getting Greedy.  Act your old age.  Relax – This won’t hurt.”

- Hunter S. Thompson, February 16th ’05 suicide note.

I was saddened but simultaneously not surprised when I first read this news five years ago.  He is my favorite writer to this day.  Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas still holds my record for quickest read at two days.  If you are just getting into politics or if you’re a political junkie, you should check out Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ‘72.  Or if you like drinking.  Or drugs.
