Hunter S Thompson

So I usually find myself posting a few quick lines about events for some tour I’m working on. Of course it sort of meaningless in the grand scheme of things. I never said I was a literary force. I hated English class in high school, especially senior year. It’s ironic I always wanted to write a book or a movie screen play. I have a lot of ideas in my head. Getting them to paper is the problem.

This past Sunday’s shocking death of writer Hunter S Thompson got me thinking about it again. No, I’m not saying I want to be like him. I mean who can? It would be nice to be able to write something that people would say I liked it. You have some talent.

His death, along with some others who seem to have accomplished something over the past few years has made me wondering if I’ve wasted my own life. Sure I’ve been able to travel not only in the USA but also overseas. I’ve also met a lot of wonderful people. Many of them I consider good friends.

Maybe it’s time to do something else, or at least something more.
