I envy your writing. I wish I had written this. You are Hunter S. if he hadn't used drugs to the point his brain fried.

Thanks, Mason, although undue praise.

It isn't. Hunter started as a beat reporter, chasing cash mostly devoid of style. He ended as almost a complete parody of the glorious middle age of his writing. You write the way Hunter did during the time when he was famous for voice, and still present to care about substance.

In 1975, as a college reporter, I had a delightful interview, and lots of bourbon with HST. Hilarious guy.

That sounds interesting. My brother used to be a bartender at a place he hung out at in San Francisco - The Tosca - and has some fun stories about him.
