"When speeding past a law enforcement officer it is neccessary to accelerate. When he pulls out behind you and turns on his lgihts, it is neccessary to turn on you blinker. This will confuse him, however it is to let him know you are looking for an appropriate place to pull over and talk." this is a perfect example of the zaney writing style Hunter thompson uses. Im not sure if he was drug addled when he wrote this or if he's rying to be clever.

I can relate to allot of cultural observations he makes. take this one for example. both their buggies were covered with ominous symbols: screaming eagles carrying American flags in their claws." although he never outright says it, it's pretty obvious that he thinks this is tacky. and i
couldn't agree more.

both characters seem very irritable and aggressive (probably because of the drugs.) like the scene where they are getting the shotgun mike, the attorney threatens to kill the store owner and burn down his house. also their is another scene where the author fires his driver just for making him spill his drink.

I wonder how this book could even be made into a movie. it doesn't really have enough substance that can be seen. most of it is observation which an pretty much only be read. I bet its allot different.
