I hate to advocate weird chemicals, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone... but they've always worked for me.

Heh, I'm reading "Hell's Angels" right now. It's good, but it's not classic Hunter, yet.

Hunter S. is the goods. I read somewhere that he bought Johnny Depp the customary title of "Colonel" from the Southern Gentleman's Club when they were researching Fear And Loathing just so he could call Depp the Colonel. Madness like that takes time and concerted effort. :heavymetal:

Asking someone to choose that is like asking someone who they would save from drowning -- their spouse or their child.

You just don't do it man.

I liked Fear and Loathing alot better than Where the Buffalo Roam.

I dont think HST liked the Bill Murray version. He seemed to like working with Johnny Depp and he had a part in making Fear in Loathing so I would have to go with Depp. :weed: :heavymetal:


jim has said all there is to say on the matter.

True, but I find myself wishing he'd write about his own experiences with the club more instead of all the background. I'm only a hundred pages in, so I'm sure there's more to come.

I always loved Songs of the Doomed. It entertained me immensely.

The South America chronicles are just priceless.

Thompson rocks.

Yeah, I have it mainly because I'm a huge Gilliam fan. Now that HST is gone, I'll have to finally watch it and listen to his commentary.

:(
