Hunter S. Thompson 1937-2005

The madness that drove the boundless and brutal wit of Hunter S Thompson slipped its bonds and overtook him on Sunday when he made the decision to blow his own brains out. He was fond of closing recent works with the word "Mahalo" a pidgin word for great thanks and blessings. Well, Mahalo HST. Your style and total disrespect for the evils of authority has been an inspiration to me for quite some time now. A voice against the Power is now silenced.

As HST was also fond of saying: "Buy the ticket, take the ride".

It's our turn to get on the train. This generation, and the fate of those to come is fucked unless we do something about it.
