Apparent Hunter S. Thompson suicide note published

Apparent Hunter S. Thompson suicide note published

Gonzo journalist to the end:

The brief message, scrawled in black marker and titled "Football Season Is Over" (an apparent reference to the end of the NFL season he avidly followed as fan), reads as follows:

"No More Games. No More bombs. No More Walking. No More Fun. No More Swimming. 67. That is 17 years past 50. 17 more than I needed or wanted. Boring. I am always bitchy. No Fun -- for anybody. 67. You are getting Greedy. Act your old age. Relax -- This won't hurt."


In Rolling Stone, of course, though it doesn't seem to be on line yet.
