Why don't they stuff him and hang him on a lamp post near the Las Vegas strip?
God. What a weird guy.

Whole new meaning to blown to smithereens. For some reason I have Wiley Coyote on my mind.

Good Lord, what a flake. :)

I'm trying to clean up what my bf said, when I read this to him.
He should be blown out of a phallic symbol. That's basically it, but the way he said it was too funny ;)

"I'd like to have several explosions. He loved explosions."
Thompson, 67, shot himself in the head on Feb. 20
This is an unfortunate combination of sentences.

He loved explosions." Thompson, 67, shot himself in the head on Feb. 20 after a long and flamboyant career
A question that we'll never get the answer to: Did he hear that last explosion?

"I'd like to have several explosions. He loved explosions."'specially that last one, eh, Anita?
She said the gonzo fist will be mounted on a 100-foot pillar, making the monument 153 feet high.
Sounds like they were all high when they dreamed this one up.
When they fire the cannon, I bet the 53-foot fist will fly backward off the 100-foot pillar and scatter Thompson's ashes over the assembled guests. Those it doesn't crush, anyway.

If you hurry, Ren and Stimpy might be on.I have no idea who they are but if they're not Thompson or some other alcoholic I might appreciate them.

I read over 2000 words a minute, and read constantly. I'm also double degreed. This guy is, without question, a looney. I posted the article as amusement. Your post that it was uninteresting provided the opportunity to direct your attention to something more worthy of your time. Your condescending "Education helps" is offensive. The premise that hostility and one-upsmanship is the only way to communicate is ridiculous.
PS: A sense of humor helps.

A sense of humor helps.
Agreed. But people like Thompson are like circus clowns. Juveniles find them funny, adults find them boring.
Jaqueline Onassis to Charles de Gaulle: "Which of all the world leaders you met had the best sense of humor?"
DeGaulle: "Joseph Stalin."
Now, that's funny.

I like books with pictures, and flunked out of DeVry.
