In Memorium: A Great Man Meets His Death. Reflections On The Life of Hunter S. Thompson
When I first heard of the death of Hunter S. Thompson, I had a desire to write an essay expressing thoughts on the memory of his passing. Since this is a page dedicated to the writings of the Beats, it seemed only appropriate to remember Thompson, but the more I thought about his death, the harder it became to write on the man without avoiding the standard cliches that often abound on the passing of a great man. For the past month, I have given a great deal of thought on how to express the emotions felt by the literary community on the hole left in the genre of modern fiction since his death. Eulogies are so hard to write, especially when a writer as unique as Thompson was leaves the literary world. His distinct personality will undoubtedly be missed.

Karol Griffen seeks to answer this question through her description of the art of producing tatoos in Nevada. Take a drive into the Western ethos in "Skin Deep".
