In case you don't know the man you see above is Hunter S. Thompson. He's dead now( he shot himself in Feb. of '05) and I'm still upset about it. He was a truly unique voice. This is what he had to say about my hometown.
"Houston is a cruel and crazy town on a filthy river in East Texas with no zoning laws and a culture of sex, money and violence. It's a shabby sprawling metropolis ruled by brazen women, crooked cops and super-rich pansexual cowboys who live by the code of the West -- which can mean just about anything you need it to mean, in a pinch."
That sums it up perfectly. You can read the whole article here. It's a scream.
