HST's ashes to be fired from cannon

The cremated remains of Hunter S. Thompson will be shot from a cannon next month.

Really, not much to add to a headline like that.

Amen to that.

HST would be pleased as punch.

rock!

my husband would *love* an ending like that. actually, his request is that part of his ashes be commingled with chemicals to make fireworks.

Also a great way to go.

Mark Gruenwald had his ashes mixed into the ink for the first printing of the Squadron Supreme graphic novel. I always thought that rocked.

Sheesh. When I die I'll be happy if someone will just roll me out of the gutter.

Wow.. first the Blaster Pastor (http://kstp.com/article/pstories/s9124.html/), and now Hunter S Thompson. Maybe it's the start of a new fad.
