	I hate writing in general.... It reminds me of the water in East Kentucky. Spent time in New Mexico again, 19 gin/tonics later Life starts at 8pm and your teeth fall out the hosts mention that you "look like nuts" and we are carted off to a casino. Life is fantastic on the way home we wondered through woody creek, wishing to see your memorial, but lost because of all those private jets in Aspen .. Lousy Ville *Oct. 06'

	I can't write anywhere else, i hope i'm not raising any ire'... It's been 7 months as my mind figures since i've written here.. Lots of things, death of a great man can't really seem to top that one ... nor write against it... He would want me to write thu' A woman today told me via the email at work that her husband said it was ok... I'm all for your liberal ways but dear christ is this how it really works? Count me out again.... Liebe machen Sie Ihren Krieg in Irak Missing HST... Writing letters not poems recently.......

	Eagle Rare it is tonight 10year. The little wrap they put around it is starting to tear, I almost feel like an aristocrat for spending 18$ on a pint of bourbon. Someday they will put a banner in this fine city to honor you. But the swine have control this Fletcher bastard has to go . Life on the fringe Welcome to America..

	I'm just one of those hapless crappity smacks, that your mother shakes her head at ... Whom bangs fists on every table and screams into some small living room why can't things be simple . Life is easy at the start and finish.. Ants smashing into each other is what they leave to the rest... When will this war end? When will people stop eating animals? "When will i be able to walk into a store and buy what I want with my good looks?" When will we stop destoying the earth? Abraham Lincoln was from Kentucky...

	Life can all boil down to a Bob Dylan song. It all depends on which way you look at things. Don't think twice comes to mind.. Sometimes I wish it would all stop. It's not easy to think it's ok.?

	Too many times I've been asked "What makes a man?" Two many times I have been asked what makes a man. Three many times I've wonder why I would care,

	Quote: Well at this point, it's just you and me talking back and forth. Yeah, well, at this point, there's also the occasional, lone (who's afraid of?) woolf, read in tooth and claw, sitting on the outskirts and pointing. Poetry? Yeah, well, poetry, okay, the friend-of-my-enemy-is-Google will give the claw some read truth: http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node=Collect%20Telegram%20from%20a%20Mad%20D... Collect Telegram from a Mad Dog (by Hunter S. Thompson) Not being a poet, and drunk as well, leaning into the diner and dawn and hearing a juke box mockery of some better human sound I wanted rhetoric but could only howl the rotten truth Norman Luboff should have his nuts ripped off with a plastic fork. Then howled around like a man with the final angst, not knowing what I wanted there Probably the waitress, bend her double like a safety pin, Deposit the mad seed before they tie off my tubes . . . Suddenly a man with wild eyes rushed out from the wooden toilet Foam on his face and waving a razor like a flag, shouting . . . We'll take our vengeance now! . . . We rang for Luboff on the pay phone, but there was no contact . . . Get a Lawyer, I said. These swine have gone far enough. Now is the time to lay a writ on them, Cease and Desist . . . The legal man agreed We had a case and indeed a duty to Right these Wrongs, as it were The Price would be four thousand in front and ten for the nut. I wrote him a check on the Sawtooth National Bank, but he hooted at it While rubbing a special oil on his palms To keep the chancres from itching beyond endurance On this Sabbath. . . . Later, from jail I sent a brace of telegrams to the right people, explaining my position. It's a Boss-darned, uro-grafitti'd, bat-belfry'd boulevarde of Truth Incorporated out there (9-to-5, and watch over your shoulder, not to mention the palisades of your cubicle), so it must be true. You poor bastards'll see that soon enough. Leer and Frothing on the Champagne Trial, Joseph Klaw (Subject: K4FK4 (Control Group) Pharmacology Experiment: THC1138 )

	Well at this point, it's just you and me talking back and forth. Some of that stuff esp. the last stuff written i honestly don't even remember writing. No idea. Mr. Lawry, Mr. Simpson.(Mr Simpson a year ago this week.).......... are two people that i've known personally who have pulled a HST .. Mr Toole.. A confederacy of dunces..... Another mad genius who decided it was time to go .. I guess this is just me dealing with the awful truth of suicide. I'm not talking to anybody in particular. It's just more of a ramble.. I feel bad about taking up space, i know they like to keep things in order. And one way to deal with it in my corner is taking heroic dozes of illegal substances and drinking entirely too much. God, as i get older it's catching up.. Well, thats about it, thanks for stopping by. Take care.. Just say maybe.

	Greetings. I'm a bit confused here, since I cannot follow what you're saying here, what it has to do with Hunter S. Thompson, and wondering if he ever published any poetry. Please forgive my ignorance, but I have no idea what is happening in this thread and who are the people that seem to be talking back and forth?? needin' some Light, Daniel 8)

	I guess you died a while ago, and there are plans to fire you out of a cannon. It's been about a year since I lost a little bit of innocence.. I'm not the least bit bitter about the way things are You know me Thanks, again Mr. Lawry & Mr. Simpson Mr. Toole, (points for a good preface).. """"It is a great pity that John Kennedy Toole is not alive and well and writing. But he is not, and there is nothing we can do about it but make sure that this gargantuan tumultuous human tragicomedy is at least made available to a world of readers. """"" & Mr.Thompson, "welcome to the real world kid, it won't last too long"

	For the first week i raised my glasses, those two lenses that keep my vision sharp those irish beer holding vessels and for the maryjane we both smoked and held so close to our minds all for you. We may be left with why? only becuase we looked up at you and waited for the next writing you let out. If this is the answer then we don't want to live. But I want to live and continue what you have started. I walk the highlands and wonder what may have gone through your head. Goodnight my friend. Thank you.

	"So we shall let the reader answer this question for himself: Who is the happier man, he who has braved the storm of life and lived, or he who has stayed securely on shore and merely existed?" HST age 17 A champion died yesterday.. His courage will be missed.
