No one mentioned Karl Hass, who died a couple weeks ago:

WABE still plays his show weeknights, and I find myself listening
to it at least one night a week.

didn't kevin record hunter in "quad" last year at the rainbow
gathering??

no it was just a flashback..........nixon!

I've been kind of wondering if he decided to checkout with self
inflicted firearms because that's the way Hemingway went. Everybody
remembers righteous cool death over "dying slowly with a colostomy bag
at your side".

The guy was 67, kind of up there given his hard life, so maybe he
figured checking out with style would be the finale to his career...hey
it worked wonders for Kurt Cobain...

I tried to watch the "Fear and Loathing" movie a while back and it was
bad....truly horrible and if anybody could pull off/channel HST it
would be Johnny Depp.

Maybe the book was just unfilmable.

Maybe HST was depressed about his portrayl in that movie. NAH he
wouldn't have given a rat's ass.

I lived in FL back then, and they had this DMV safety program called
"Arrive Alive".

FL did not require front tags so the big thing for stoner buds was they
came out with these license tags that looked like FL license plates,
but said "Arrive Stoned".

I used to call them "Arrive Stoned, Pulled over and Searched" tags.

Seemed like a really bad idea, even back then...

p.s. And yes my last day of high school did resemble the movie "Dazed
and Confused", except for the substition of boiled down "Shroom Juice"
in Mason Jars....

stoned teenagers are not the Rhodes scholars they appear to be
even ones coming from a state college:-)
we had a bowl that looked like a 8 ball with 4 hoses coming off it
it had a suction cup and we would attach it to our windshield as we
cruised down the highway
saved us the trouble of passing joints around in the car

Awesome observation. :-)

Still hoping he left the definitive, gonzo suicide note.

Being that celeb deaths often occur in 3's:
Singer/actor John Raitt also went on Sunday.
I'm not sure how I think that would effect 'balance' ...

Still hoping he left the definitive, gonzo suicide note.

USA Today's Tuesday feature on HST included the
statement "...kept writing until the end"
