So I finally know who I would pick for my "If you could choose anyone past or present to meet and hang out for a day, who would it be?" question. Hunter S. Thompson. I absolutely love what I've read from him so far, just brilliant, fascinating, hilarious stuff, so smart, so witty. And I'm pissed he killed himself, for selfish reasons I suppose. Who am I to question him choosing suicide? I don't really. I just have gotten into his writings, and know there won't be more to come. Reminds me when of when I got into Nirvana in 7th grade, and was like "Aw man, this stuff is awesome, can't wait to see them in concert!" and then found out that Kurt Cobain had killed himself like 8 or 9 years earlier....awkward. Except that I knew, via James, that Hunter S. Thompson had killed himself already and I hadn't anticipated on liking him so much.
