Crap, I liked some of the stuff this guy did. Read some of the Hells Angels stories somewhere.

Definitely bad news. I have a number of his books and watch "Fear and loathing in Las Vegas" just about every weekend. You've got to read his last column on espn2.com, kind of eery. Hope that Raoul Duke, doctor of journalism, gives a good eulogy.

Raoul Duke: There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. Some kind of high powered mutant never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, and too rare to die.

The only reason he lived so long was the Magic Filters he smoked his Pall Malls through...

Turns out the guy was in a lot of pain and wasn't one to die in a hospital. Amusing article about him chasing a bear off his property in the link as well, typical HST. :laugh:
