Eulogy for a master wordsmith

Hunter's dead. His ashes have been blown from a cannon across his sprawling ranch outside of Aspen. Just thought I'd post my favorite Hunter S. Thompson quote, in honor of one of the 20th Century's most-inspired voices.
Hope you'll leave yours, too:

"The music businessis a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side."
