Hunter Thompson

I don't think I've ever read any of his books. I may have read Fear and Loathing. I don't remember. Here's an interesting post talking about his life. And here's the SF Chronicle article...where he used to work in the 80s...I guess he actually worked at the Examiner, but now the chronicle and Examiner are one in the same.

A quote from the man, I find worthwhile:

It seems like a lifetime, or at least a Main Era—that kind of peak that never comes again. San Francisco in the middle sixties was a very special time and place to be a part of. Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run ...


Sort of sums up life a little bit, eh?
