Gonzo

He wrote, before taking his life:

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.

He shot himself four days later.

Written in black marker, the note was titled,
“Football Season Is Over.”

[Hunter S. Thompson.]
