On Sunday February 20th, writer/journalist Dr. Hunter S. Thompson commited suicide in his Aspen home. As far as I can tell, his wife went out for a bit and Dr. Thompson shot himself while she was gone. This is a great loss for anyone who has seen Fear and loathing, or has read any of his numerous books, or read his article on espn.com. I for one will miss him, he was an interesting, sometimes dark man, whos adventures and talent made him a well known writer. A salute to a crazy, drug induced, talented man.
