So you probably know that Dr. Gonzo, Hunter S. Thompson, was said to have killed himself over the weekend with a self-inflicted pistol shot to the head.
A twisted ending to a twisted existence.
Of course, the rumors are flying.
Some folks are wondering if it was bad medical diagnostic juju.
Some folks are wondering if it was Kerry�s loss in the last election cycle.
And of course, the lefties are wondering what Dr. Thompson knew that they didn�t.
Which leads me to wonder if large quantities of lefties are going to follow in his footsteps? I am not wishing for that (at least not a whole lot).
An avid reader of HST, I did not expect him to go out like a lamb, but he seemed too full of piss and vinegar to go out like this.
Watch for the good Doctor to get the full �Wellstone Treatment�* in the coming weeks.
Happy travels, Dr. Gonzo. I tip my glass to you for surviving this long. Let the peacocks roam.

*The �Wellstone Treatment� is basically the conspiracy theory that �The Bush Cabal� had someone killed.
Clearly he was distraught over the fact that Sandra Dee had passed away earlier that day. You see, he’d been secretly carrying a torch for her all these years, and all his acting out was a desperate attempt to gain her attention…
