Legendary writer and journalist Hunter S. Thompson has been found dead at his home in the U.S. 

Wiped out by a bullet from his own hand, Hunter was always a man living by a rapidly ticking clock.

It would be counter to all the bullshit he endeavoured to sever for us to prattle on about the man as if we knew him. Nobody did, not really.

Just be upstanding and salute the master. To paraphrase Hunter himself:

"You’ve got to live it before you can write about it".

Amen and a bottle of Chivas Regal to all that.

R.I.P
