How Hunter S. Thompson Looked for a Job

There was never a dull moment with Hunter S. Thompson. He wrote this cover letter in 1958. Nicholas Kristof of the New York Times shared it today with his Facebook fans and remarked that it was the best job application letter he ever read. It also appeared in the Fear and Loathing Letters Vol. 1. We miss Hunter S. Thompson in Colorado. When he died it kind of took the high out of our high country. Don’t think his chutzpah led to a job with The Sun though.
