so i had a ton of stuff that i wanted to link to but forgot it all i have this brilliant pic that LL took Sunday night when we were stuck on the Williamsburg Bridge for 2 hours i shit you not. it was snowing like a motherfucker and there was an 8 car pile up. all we wanted was to get in some quality lesbian time at Starlight since we have all but had our lesbian memberships revoked because we do not EVER hang out near or with dykes- not to mention that we are obliged to 'beat time" with JBL so off we went at 11:20 on sunday night to have a few beers and put in our time. we end up trapped in the middle of the bridge where we were when we heard on the radio that Hunter S Thompson killed himself.
this piece of info will not affect my life in any way. i read fear and loathing and threw it in the pile with Naked Lunch and moved on - for the record, i have read FAR more William Burroughs than I would have read HST. not because i didn't like him, but because i read WB first and one of those kinds of writers is enough for me- and?!?! I am SOOOOO going to get hate mail for this little outburst
the point of all of this was that we were stuck on the bridge and LL took this picture she decided to call it "Hunter S. Thompson blew his head off" im not sure at all if it was taken before or after we heard it on the radio but the photo is brilliant. and so was HST.
