Adieu Hunter

Some light googling turned up this archive of recent columns Hunter S. Thompson wrote for ESPN.com. I didn't know he wrote a column for ESPN.com! I've only delved in a little, but this one from Feb. 15, about a phone call he made to Bill Murray at 3:30 one morning, had me chuckling.

I'm sad he's gone! Soon I'll blog about the time I saw him speak in 1989 at Metro (then Cabaret Metro) in Chicago. It was quite a time, an author event like none other I've seen. But I've been up, crazed half the night working, and I need to rest.
