Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask and he will tell you the truth. - Oscar Wilde
I just read an obit that Hunter S. Thompson (best known today as the writer of Fear and Loathing In Las Vegas and as the inspiration for Duke in Doonesbury comic strip) has died. All of you may take that news for what it's worth, but I for one will remember the passing of one of the truly original writers of the 20th century.
ANDERS BERGSTROM has been writing, talking -- and blogging -- about movies, music and culture for some time now. In the past he has contributed movie and concert reviews to The Sheaf, the University of Saskatchewan student newspaper, and maintained a strong circle of film and culture loving friends.
