Goodbye, Rube.
ASPEN, Colo. – Hunter S. Thompson, the hard-living writer who inserted himself into his accounts of America’s underbelly and popularized a first-person form of journalism in books such as “Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas,” has committed suicide.
Thompson was found dead Sunday in his Aspen-area home of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, sheriff’s officials said. He was 67. Thompson’s wife, Anita, had gone out before the shooting and was not home at the time.
Besides the 1972 classic about Thompson’s visit to Las Vegas, he also wrote “Fear and Loathing: On the Campaign Trail ’72.” The central character in those wild, sprawling satires was “Dr. Thompson,” a snarling, drug- and alcohol-crazed observer and participant.
Thompson is credited alongside Tom Wolfe and Gay Talese with helping pioneer New Journalism – or, as he dubbed it, “gonzo journalism” – in which the writer made himself an essential component of the story.
Hmm. I hadnt heard this yet.
Warning Comment
Yeah, we got this news last night. Sad.
Warning Comment
I JUST watched Fear and Loathing yesterday! (I read it back in college, but never saw the movie). What a shame.
Warning Comment
Warning Comment
Yeah, I heard about this on the news this morning. Eric
Warning Comment
Man I did not hear about this…read and own both of those books. Shocker.
Warning Comment
Warning Comment
Looks like he went out on his terms, and I doubt he would have let it happen any other way.
Warning Comment
My thought was that this was the inevitable end of an egomanical, disturbed man. The cynic in me says, “Good career move.” The better person in me hopes that he rests in peace. He sure didn’t have any while here.
Warning Comment
Warning Comment
I heard this on the radio this morning. It’s very sad. They said that he was found by his son. I didn’t realize that he lived in CO – near Aspen – not that that means anything.
Warning Comment
I’m more of an Arthur Miller mourner.
Warning Comment
Warning Comment
RYN: BOTH?
Warning Comment
Warning Comment
I heard about this in a divey diner, on the radio, watching an old man make me eggs. It seemed the right way to find out, and I got inexplicably sad, sadder than I thought.
Warning Comment
ryn: thanks. you have…once again… made things crystal clear for me. you are so wise 🙂 –
Warning Comment
so strange…i was on a date when i heard, and the first thing i thought about doing was getting to a computer so i could check in with you and leave you a note. love you,
Warning Comment
yeah. that’s really sad. the saddest part of it is I…don’t know…who…that was….
Warning Comment
RYN: With their current salary cap problems, it might end up being the janitor from the weight room. He can’t really read a defense yet, but I hear he’s got one hell of an arm. Yes, I’m crying.
Warning Comment
Hey, I know a guy that can help….all you have to do is match his ~$10M salary and cough up a couple of first round picks.
Warning Comment
my ass was on readers choice… oh lord!
Warning Comment
ryn: so what do you think her deal is? I am not sure why this bothers me so much, but she is just so out there. LIke she’s pitching a new 90210 type show where girl runs off from horrid job, cuts her hair, dies it blond and hits the road landing in NYC, etc. Like Rainy in the City. Ugh.
Warning Comment
ryn: exactly. My imaginary book advance is going to be HUGE and fabulous. YOu know the one, the one for my imaginary book. My lack of motivation is just slightly less than my lack of talent.
Warning Comment
Rest in peace, man! Aims
Warning Comment
ryn: I have the BEST feet.
Warning Comment
RYN: What a great note that was! I would soooo love for you to talk to Jeff. I can hear the whole conversation in my head right now, and it makes me laugh! I think that Jeff does need a guy to talk to, a real guy, an experienced guy unlike any of his friends. I’m sure you would scare him though. He bruises easily.
Warning Comment
RYN: It’s hard to pronounce “F” when you’re all numbed up. But thanks.
Warning Comment
I start rehab tommorow. Thought you might be glad. 🙂
Warning Comment
Thank you. I can’t wait! I don’t know WHY! I am scared I will be a boring, non fun person, but then again, how exciting or fun is someone whom is always WASTED or hungover? YEAH. I KNOW. So, anything, is going to be better. I will be strong, and it will turn out good. 🙂
Warning Comment
ryn- how can I request it form her if I cant even note her…..? Or is there some other way I am not aware of??
Warning Comment
Yeah, He lived life the way he wanted to, and ended it when he wanted to………. I guess he was done with living……….
Warning Comment
RYN – Yes! When’s your birthday?
Warning Comment
RYN: No, it didn’t offend me. I deleted several notes from that entry which is something I tend to do. Hell I delete my diary about every 30 days. I’m weird. 😉 I’ll take plenty of preggo pics just for you.
Warning Comment
RYN – I read it, too. So? Address? Birthday?
Warning Comment
Not so much what?
Warning Comment
ryn: I wonder if Bruce should be creating a Garage Door-Challenged section in Interests. 🙂

RYN- Your anal reviews? I agree. Careful.
Warning Comment
RYN: You are the lone dissenter. Sorry. 🙂
Warning Comment
Go back and Refresh.
Warning Comment
RYN: Amazing. Regarding #8. Who do they call when their ROUND STOVE breaks!? Some of them, though, I would LOVE to live in. That candy apple red bidet!? So hot!
Warning Comment
RYN: Hey, thanks for stopping by 🙂
Warning Comment
RYN: Well eventually I’ll feel better… Like August or something.
Warning Comment
RYN: “Somebody needs to do it.” Why? Because it’s “illegal”? Well, driving 60 MPH in a 55 zone is “illegal”, but I don’t think they should make a federal case out of it. And yeah, I’m comparing steroid use among ‘adults’ to a traffic violation. I just think that it’s a classic case of using the wrong tool for the wrong job. Eric
Warning Comment
wanna double down? want a lap dance? i’m reaching. i just randomed here and read back. hm. hi.
Warning Comment
ryn: cool, you’ll have to let me know if that happens. What would you be doing?
Warning Comment
I will do, dont worry.
Warning Comment
ryn: Vibrating controller? I’m all over that. ;o)
Warning Comment
RYN: REALLY? Hmmm… I didn’t notice. Maybe it’s a random rotating ad, and when I went it was different? *shrug* Eric
Warning Comment
ryn: oooh secretive 😉 –
Warning Comment
ryn: Thanks for the addition. In reality my question was about YOU ALL HAVE (ya’llve)? Doubting it’s a word, but if I’m using ya’ll, I might as well use ya’llve, right?
Warning Comment
RYN – Because he doesn’t wave back. And he’s ugly.
Warning Comment
So how do you meet women? Is the bar/club crowd any better? Have you tried the singles groups? Friends of friends? What do people do to meet people in the real world?
Warning Comment
Ha ha, nice joke cock fu#er. Is that your baby on the front page? Cos its fuc#ing ugly.
Warning Comment
I am definitely interested in your scar. Please add me to your faves, read on about the project and let me know what you think. Where you are located, your impressions, etc.
Warning Comment
Damn. You have a lot of noters (please feel free to post info about my project in such a fertile place as this!) Anyhow…RYN: what is craigslist? (Internet/computer moron here). I have heard of it, but don’t know what it is…I will have to check it out. Thank you very much for the info. PS..I liked Hunter from Rolling Stone.
Warning Comment
O.M. f’in. G! Craigslist is so cool! I just gave it a cursory glance and I haven’t looked at prices etc…but thank you so much.
Warning Comment
that was such a crazy movie!
Warning Comment
RYN: awww honey buns! I’m flattered!! FYI: today’s pink bow day!
Warning Comment
RYN: Thank you, you made me feel better. STILL! Ack! I can’t even imagine. I’d be mortified. Be well,
Warning Comment
ryn: I don’t know if he meant to insult me or cover his own ass, but wierdly enough. I’m totally wanting to have sex with him again, but be really good at it this time.
Warning Comment
ryn: ummm, not sure what I did to deserve that note…..
Warning Comment
rywhatever: Dang, someone’s snarky today!!!! (or maybe I’m just reading you wrong!) You know I love you Duke! Of course, I had to stare and stare at my outfit to figure out what was “wrong” with it – other than the spit up I discovered shows on the picture, I figured I was lucky I was clothed at all – there are many weekends I don’t make it out of my pjs!
Warning Comment
Ah yet another pointless note from my number one reader. Oh by the way, that is an exceptionally ugly baby you have their, musy take after you thatn. Come back again somtime.
Warning Comment
Yo dick head, why no note me back, cant take sh#t from someone else eh you ugly mother fu#ker.
Warning Comment
Looking dayum sexy on the front page too! Hell NO I won’t tell you who she is! And she keeps forgetting it anyways. Arg.
Warning Comment
I don’t know who you think you are but you are a complete jerk. I read your notes from 25 years later and I would have to say that you obviously are too much into yourself to realise that some people do make mistakes and that they can change and become a different person. Why do you have to be so mean to the guy? Don’t you think he has suffered enough?
Warning Comment
YOU ARE A RETARD
Warning Comment
RYN: Yes, I suppose you are right. Until I feel safe again though, this is the way it’s going to be. Besides darling, you have access, what more could you possibly want? 😉 Be well,
Warning Comment
ryn: i think i’m just gonna ignore it, but man is your offer tempting! i’d love to see what YOU’D come up with!
Warning Comment
hmmm…Thanks for the hate notes. Grrrr. I guess I’m not a ‘favorite’ any more. ;o/
Warning Comment
RYN: Ok, I’ll bite. What exactly was it about Top Gun that you hated? Eric
Warning Comment
RYN: I know what you mean about not liking something because everyone around you is bonkers over it and it drives you nuts. I was that way about Friends. I didn’t even watch one single episode until after it went to syndication. However, with Top Gun, I never saw it in the theater, when all the big hoopla was being made. I didn’t see it until they had it on TV. Eric
Warning Comment
ryn: Ok, is it my imagination that you have some entries missing since I last looked…or am I losing it?
Warning Comment
RYN: Laughing my ass off!!
Warning Comment
So when shall I move in with you?
Warning Comment
Yo ugly, you be smoking crack. What diary you be talking then gay? Damn, ugly and stupid, your the total package. Life be crap.
Warning Comment
So you admit that the baby on your min page is ugly? Thats a little harsh, but if thats what you honestly think of it, I mean her, ah well.
Warning Comment
RYN: Thanks for the encouragement.
Warning Comment
RYN: That’s kind of you to say. 🙂 Be well,
Warning Comment
ryn: he is amazing. email me at a2dkelly@aol.com and I will forward your email onto him and intro. thanks so much
Warning Comment
RYN: No, but its funny you say that, because I think that is all that might help me as I just keeping going further downward on my own. I was just thinking about going inpatient today. We’ll see. Thanks. I know you care and its good to know.
Warning Comment
RYN: I was like “Toitle? What is a toitle?” I actually googled it! I feel so stupid now! A site for Teenage Mutant Ninja Totiles came up. LOL
Warning Comment
RYN: Well I did say maybe I was being harsh, and that American’s work hard and might just be exhausted. I know I’m American… it’s just that… we could be better, don’t you think? Like better dressed, environmental, and on-board with Metrics. That’s all. Oh and the gun thing. Maybe we could do something about all the guns.
Warning Comment
sweetie: write. that is all. love!
Warning Comment
RYN: I agree with you. You always have great advice, by the way. But what do I say if he reverts to the herpes excuse? Is there a come back for that?
Warning Comment
RYN: You seem a lot wiser regarding relationships than I, so I think you will be the winner here. I expect a full report! I kind of expect my answer will be: settle.
Warning Comment
RYN: Ya think? Actually, I’m not weird at all…just midly amused at certain things from time to time 😉
Warning Comment
RYN: I knew that…or at least, was hoping that 🙂
Warning Comment
RYN: Oh yeah! Thanks. I fergot. 😉
Warning Comment
Speaking of which, when are you going to write another entry?? *smiles*
Warning Comment
RYN: LMAO…again! Unlike most others, you appreciated the humor in my entry. Major points for that 😉
Warning Comment
RYN: Matthew had training wheels for two years. It didn’t help at all. As for the pope, I stand by my comments. I think the pope is just as dangerous as the president at this point. This is not the time to be electing extremists.
Warning Comment
RYN: They may not necessarily get worse, but I can’t see it getting any better.
Warning Comment
Poor old Hunter S Thompson..
Warning Comment
RYN: That isn’t the way the term is meant. Yes, there are feminists out there who blame men for the problem. There are also feminists out there who simply realize that men and women have to work together to eradicate sexual violence. Simply arming women isn’t enough–that would turn life into a war zone.
Warning Comment
Did you just stay in Vegas or what? Have you even GONE?
Warning Comment
Parli, reading your notes is fascinating, sort of like hearing only one side of a phone conversation you shouldn’t be listening to. I had a look at the 25 years later guy, I can’t believe all the huggers here fall for that shit. It would be nice if the fake diaries were at least well written, don’t think I’d mind then, especially if they weren’t bizarre pity parties. What’s your email now hon?
Warning Comment
hello?
Warning Comment
Happy Birthday 🙂
Warning Comment
You are THIRD from the bottom of my faves, followd ONLY by Chuck and Joebug. And I think Joebug’s is deleted.
Warning Comment
RYN: Terrifying. Are you trying to tell me something? 😉 Be well,
Warning Comment
Happy birthday, Duke. I didn’t send you the card 🙁 Did you get the other one, though?
Warning Comment
RYN: Probably because I am using pictures as backgrounds and they are not saved to the OD hard drive. If you are still using a dial-up that would compound the problem.
Warning Comment
I miss youuuu! More diary writing, more diary writing, more diary writing!!!
Warning Comment
Hey, you never know. You could be a cheap bast@rd.
Warning Comment
I would love to retire in the next six months! But I’m anal, I must check it. Every month. I’m a Virgo! Don’t you know my head will explode if I don’t open the envelope?!
Warning Comment
And write some damned entries, dammit! Unless of course you are and they’re all Favorites Only and I’m not a favorite, in which case I’ll just say this: “WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
Warning Comment
RYN: Thanks for the note. It’s always cool to be reminded I’m not the only one from Kansas City floating out here in the void of cyberspace. *smiles* I was checking out your AOL instant messenger name…stupid question here, are you or did you go to Park University?? Just had to ask. Take care and thanks again for the note.
Warning Comment
RYN (and it’s nice to see you noting): I drove by Deadwood and was tempted to go visit because of the name…. *smiles* Hugs

Well hell, have you stopped writing?

Hey. I am doing somewhat better. 🙂 Four days. On my own. I know to you that may not be shit, but to me, its like a month to normal people. 🙂
Warning Comment
Had a dream about you last night Parli, I tracked you down at your apartment and you wouldn’t talk to me until I told you I had Blather with me in the car. Then you came out and you and I played with children on the roof of the building.
Warning Comment
Where ARE you?! Not even a drunk dial lately. Have I offended you in some way? At any rate, I miss you and hope you’re okay.
Warning Comment
*ROTFLMAO* AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Eric

ryn: Hi. I dont’ understand your note to me…the link. It takes me to a diary that is favorites only. and why are you calling me a hooker, pimp?
Warning Comment
Seven days of normalcy. (sp?) I feel good. 🙂 I hope all is well in your neck of the woods. Its going to be a great memorial day weekend I think. 🙂 I am sure you have big plans with your pack. 🙂
Warning Comment
ryn: so what was thast note Lincoln left about? hookers? huh?
Warning Comment
Write a new entry already, will you. I”m tired of noting this same one. Pimp.
Warning Comment
RYN: No, I didn’t know, but I don’t really care. I still have, and use, my Nintendo 64, lol. I get hooked on certain games and that is all I need to be perfectly happy. I’m easy that way 😉

Warning Comment
🙁 I don’t have yahoo. I might have to get it just for you. I tried to call the number you gave me to have a chat but it doesn’t seem to work, might be something to do with cell phones and international calls. I thought that if you can’t make it to Chicago, which I doubt, we could chat on the phone while I’m there. Do you want to resend your number to me at catherine.kelly@green.ox.ac.uk?
Warning Comment
I’d email you, but again I only have your old work address. You’re elusive these days 😉

Oh, and in case the double negative above doesn’t read well I mean that I doubt you’ll be able to make it. Not the reverse.

DAMN IT!!!!! FOILED AGAIN!!!!!!!!

Warning Comment
RYN: That might also depend on the gauge it was pierced at. It’s typical for them to be pierced at 14ga, which is what mine was done at, but you can get larger or smaller. My friend Carrie had hers done at 12 and I’ve seen some done at 16. The stud also plays a big part, plus the person skill as well. Duck has said he’s been with girls that had them and he couldn’t tell muchof a difference either.

RYN: As long as he uses bar-b-que sauce, because I’m a little gamy. ;^) Eric
Warning Comment
he’s not only the richest but most into me guy I’ve ever been with. Still money is only able to buy so much. Other than Hawaii trip, most guys can take me to dinner and movies, which is mostly what we do. I was once crazy about GP, a bartender/actor who still lived with his parents. He only called at 2am though. Most guys here are so lazy/spoiled and commitment phobic that cartman is a rarity
Warning Comment
hard to believe but he’s one of the nicest guys, in the fact that he wants to be married with kids so badly and is really mushy and romantic
Warning Comment
RYN: read my entry today.
Warning Comment
ryn: am I sensing some frey jealousy? hows about sending me a black and white of YOU with your shirt off? anyway, when are you coming to NY to be my new boyfriend?
Warning Comment
The baseball game I feel I should’nt have had to pay since they(3 guys) invited us and tix were only $5. Cartman has way more issues than his dangling $ carrots at me. Plus I’m thisclose to breaking up with him regardless of how much money he has. The neighbor is right next door and single. If he were butt ugly and mean then it wouldn’t matter either.
Warning Comment
Point is, yes money matters. It’s like guys liking thin, young big breasted girls. But it’s not the most important thing. If I met a cute, nice British guy who spoke Chinese, he could be broke. I’d still date him. Cartman whines about his addictions, loneliness and pain all the time. It was nice to be loved/needed but it’s starting to wear on me..especially when I feel he exaggerates/manipulates
Warning Comment
Do you ever go to Rhode Island? I’d love to meet you in person next time you go. I’d even drive down to that awful state to meet you.
Warning Comment
ryn: actually I don’t give a f*ck about my credibility. I can type and manage to get from bed to computer chair. it feels like hell, but I can make it to the bathroom and eventually I can get my pants down to pee and do all the little motions you take for granted. i can’t open cupboards, etc for food. I can’t open bottles. most importantly, mentally I’m completely spent…
Warning Comment
I am depressed and scared out of my mind being 4 flights up when I can’t walk down them. I’m scared alone with my thoughts. I can’t stop picturing it and feel isolated. Of course I have friends. Some say they will come by tom. after work and walk the dog. The dog peed all over the floor NOW and I cannot reach and grab to clean it up. these things are depressing and upsetting. knowing pool
Warning Comment
is more important than being with me is just completely destroying me. weak, I know, but again, I dont’ give a f*ck.
Warning Comment
Do you hate me P? Did I do something wrong?
Warning Comment
Well, I don’t like any type of upsets, or arguements, or negative things, and I am sorry for that, I know how you feel about me, I have known for awhile. I’m sorry for upsetting you. I wish you would not remove me, but if you chose to, I understand. Take care and I will greatly miss you. It hurt what you wrote, for a reason, because I care what you think of me, (cont’d)
Warning Comment
I just kind of, I don’t know. I feel like I am losing a friend, cos I am. I don’t think I have ever been deleted off someones favorites before……………

Warning Comment
dang. you must mostly write favorites only entries. I remember reading this way back in February. Hunter S. Thompson was the idol of many of my classmates when I was in journalism school in the early ’80s. I was sad that he couldn’t go on. I’m here from Fat Rey Slim’s diary to tell you that (hahahaha!!!) she confessed to me that I am that combination of Sylvia Plath & Bridget Jones. (c)
Warning Comment
Oh! There she is! Telling you what I’m about to tell you! I AM both (well, except that I can’t write like Sylvia, but my experiences as a wife have occasionally led me to believe that my husband was hoping I would end up a famous poet with my head in the oven). tra la.
Warning Comment
ryn: well, my LAST entry happened to be bitching about my husband. Great thing for him to see, “oh, that’s the site she goes to to bitch about me!” I wish I had something exciting and scandelous to write about. Nah, not really!

Warning Comment
RYN: Thanks for the advice. Strangely enough, I only missed myself once today and that was when I got flustered. It’s amazing what ‘change’ will do to a person. *smiles* But thank you, between you and my ‘dealing circle’, I just might actually get it. Hugs

RYN: “Your final quote from above is actually from a statement released by her family.” Yeah… it was the quote her in-laws made, but in this case it was used by a poster over at Red State. Anyway… yes, I’m sure you’re quite right. While the right slams her, the left will use her. That’s the way it goes. But my point is that she has the right to her protest, and vilifying her for (cont)

RYN: WOW! You were so DEAD ON with your response to my female noters about Linda and PMS. So much so, its scary. She DID know last night, she even said so while she was screaming at me and insulting me about how I raise my son. She just couldn’t calmly talk about it until this morning. Eric

RYN: Um, rushing into buying a house wouldn’t be on an 18-24 month plan, now would it? Plans change and people do too. I’m just happy that he’s back to thinking about OUR future as opposed to HIS present being the dominant thought. Hugs

RYN The point of the article was not gather the dead before the living, thats an absurd statement, the point is why are they there in the first place. Govt and everyone below bungled the crises and bush made it worse. Clearly we can see the racist nature of govt agencies when blacks are involved.

ryn: that link…proves my point even more. read it more carefully. I did (for the last 2 years) let my boss know abou tmy blog, never named names nad never gave out trade secrets. He even told me to continue the diary–he loved the idea.

Anything is better than Madden in the booth. Anything. And when one bad call means the difference between losing and winning, pointswise, you sort of cling to it. When it happens EVERY G’D*MN year, you start to feel persecuted. In any case, it was a good game. Hopefully, we’ll return the favor the first Sunday in November.

I don’t take anyone on OD seriously. Too many arm chair lawyers and people who walk on water here. It is a place to express feelings and tell out your life if you dare, or just post fictional stories. There is no reality to it so to take reality and try to apply it here is a waste of time. People are always beautiful and right in their own minds even if the world doesn’t revolve around them.

And Stephanie Klein got a book deal–um—her book deal was that they turn the diary into a book. duh, again. If that slut can do it, there is a small chance I can too.

what I need (and want) far more than your chicken soup of advice is to be taken out to dinner. I want to get dressed up, straighten my hairs (!), smell lovely and go out for wine and fancy adult food. If you can’t provide that, shut up. Thank you very much.

Warning Comment
ryn: AFter writing the entry wonder what happened to Misty, someone left an unsigned note with her new diary name. When I went to it, it said I was blocked. I was so shocked that she blocked me. I wrote an entry saying I wanted an explaination for being blocked. Just a few months ago she was fine and now she has me blocked. Who the hell is she to do such a thing? …
Warning Comment
janeanger noted the entry saying I was rude and judgemental, and that Misty can do whatever she wants. Reading peoples diary’s is a priviledge and obviously she didn’t want to extend the priviledge to me. I told janeanger she is taking open diary way too seriously. As a result, janeanger removed me from her favs list out of “caution”. Because, you know, I’m so dangerous.
Warning Comment
I left janeanger a halfass apology and I said I was fine with her removing me. But I”m able to access Misty’s diary through another name and it’s not like Misty is writing about something great. It’s the same stuff she always wrote.

and would never know me if you met me on the street. I think you would, and I think you were right when you said what you did about all the ‘nicey nice comments’.

In my other persona, our noting paths cross quite often. I assume that you write “faves only,” and yet I could wish it were not so – your notes are so witty and cogent, I’d like to read more of you. How about giving the hoi-polloi a chance again? We’re not ALL ‘tweens, out here.
