Another option for Thompson, of course, was to move back in with his mother.

Clever, John. Glad someone else loves GK’s posts as much as I do.

The third comment is a charmed moment. Thompson was completely depraved of minimal means. He lived in extreme wanderlust. More artists should challenge their egos and embark on soul-stirring odysseys. One day, I'd like to own Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas on Criterion. He revolutionized gonzo journalism. I do have a copy of his letters Songs of the Doomed on paperback.Thanks Hunter for resisting the seduction to be vapid or mundane. His mother must have been so proud.
