"In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is getting caught. In a world of thieves, the only final sin is stupidity." Remember the radical Gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson, 07/18/1937-02/20/2005. He lived to excesses and left his imprint on history with a fascinating existence. My third time drawing this legend and it's always enjoyable. If you'd dig a print of this, I'll have it up on my site later for $20 each. "Just another freak, in the freak kingdom." 💙 👓📖📝💊🥃🥴 #huntersthompson #gonzo #gonzojournalism #artwork #art #fearandloathing #therumdiary #kingdomoffear https://www.instagram.com/p/Co4B5qZuIBe/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Every now and then when your life gets complicated and the weasels start closing in, the only cure is to load up on heinous chemicals and then drive like a bastard from Hollywood to Las Vegas ... with the music at top volume and at least a pint of ether.

HB Hunter!  Dr Hunter S Thompson was born this day in 1937 in Louisville KY, and would have been 86.

According to Thompson, their meeting came at the apartment of a pot-dealer whom they both knew:   I met Allen in San Francisco when I went to see a marijuana dealer who sold by the lid. I remember it was ten dollars when I started going to that apartment and then it was up to fifteen. I ended up going there pretty often, and Ginsberg—this was in Haight Ashbury—was always there looking for weed too. I went over and introduced myself and we ended up talking a lot. I told him about the book I was writing and asked if he would help with it. He helped me with it for several months; that’s how he got to know the Hell’s Angels.

Of course, this story has all the hallmarks of Gonzo mythmaking. … Indeed, when I recently dug up a hitherto-unpublished  interview Ginsberg gave in 1993, I was not exactly shocked to see him directly contradict Thompson’s story. The first question was “When did you first meet Dr Thompson?” Ginsberg replied:

If you look at the poem, “The First Meeting at Ken Kesey and the Hell’s Angels,” there’s a description of a party where Kesey invited the Angels down to La Honda, his house. I was there and Thompson was there. So that’s where we first met.”
