yup...in fact I'm turning this thread into a HST picture post because most people here have a 5 second attention span....pictures HELP to keep their attention

those of you who know him....most definitely like him....i don't think anyone disliked HST...besides maybe the political figures he attacked on a daily basis

for those of you who don't know who hunter s. thompson was....he created "Gonzo Journalism", was the basis of many films such as "Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas (played by johnny depp)"...."Where the Buffalo Roam (played by bill murray)" amongst others. Was the author of such books as "Hell's Angels" (for which he gained critical acclaim, living with actual Hell's Angels & almost dying from a beating received by them)...he was a featured writer for Rolling Stone for decades & several sports magazines/sports news shows as well.....He was arguably one of the most influential Journalist & writers during 1970-2005)....he is one of the most "little known" and "most famous" writers of all time

My favorite line from H.S.T.

(When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.)

1977



1980-something next to some Ducati's



In one of his last interviews before he died, for the documentary "FUCK"
