Okay, you lazy bitch.

On January 22, 2001, Hunter S. Thompson sent the following expletive-filled fax to Holly Sorensen, then Production Executive at indie movie studio The Shooting Gallery. The furious written rant concerned the movie adaptation of Thompson's novel, The Rum Diary, to which Sorensen's studio had acquired the rights. Progress had been slow and confused on their part. So slow in fact that Thompson reached boiling point.

Note: The Shooting Gallery went bust later that year. The movie is still in production.

Hunter, you magnificent bastard. :love:

You can't teach or be taught how to write off the cuff like this.

Too bad he could not spell. That kinda ruins it for me. Trust me, my letters are better.

He was typing on a typewriter. Those things are a pain in the ass, hence the pen scribbling. They didn't exactly have Microsoft Word back in those days. ;)

They did have it, it was in 2001--Hunter just liked his typewriter. Used it to the end in fact.

Same difference, though. :)

INB4 the Apricity feminist crowd: This thread is offensive to women. We all know they can't lift up sticks or light matches without male assistance, so stop picking on them.

He did not like his typewriter enough. Otherwise he would have learnt how to type. Or spell.

Oh, now I want reread Don Novello's The Lazlo Letters (1992) for some reason. :D
