Well; Gonzo goes out with a bang today. He is to be shot out of that cannon at noon. No one ever saw the movie Fear and Loathing?

In Las Vegas? Read the book and saw the movie; hate to be "one of those" but forget the movie - the book's a lot better story. I loved Depp's portrayal, but it's not enough.

I agree but I did like the fact that the dialogue was taken verbatim from the book. After all the real value of Hunter was just a simple love of language. Sort of what drives all the best writers IMO.

Just finished "Death Comes For The Archbishop." Forgot how a book about religion could actually be moving and beautifull with not one sentence of preaching to be found. I would think that is the best counter to the people who dislike the Da Vinci thing. To me if I were a religous person; that would explain what it is all about.
