Hey Rube

Blood Sport, the Bush Doctrine, and the Downward Spiral of Dumbness

By: Hunter S. Thompson

Narrated by: Scott Sowers

New York Times best-selling author and acclaimed Gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson is known for such groundbreaking works as Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. A provocative collection of rants and reflections from Thompson’s columns at ESPN.com, Hey Rube offers outrageously brilliant insight on topics ranging from the 2000 election to his unconventional take on professional sports (“eliminate the pitcher” to improve Major League Baseball).

Definately awaken the sheeple in me..

Any additional comments?

I wish I would have paid more attention to Hunter a long time ago when I was getting Rolling Stone, I caught Ralph's drawings but was too young and silly to realize Hunter's Depth... Don't know how I missed it... but Extremely glad I am reading him now !!!

it may start a slow but it gets crazy good

whenever I first learned of Hunter Thompson I thought that he was a schizophrenic threat to himself and the world, now I read the books and I laugh and I smile and I realized that he is a pure soul that love to write and love to be loved. I love Hunter Thompson, tell Thomson!
Rest easy
