i gotta friend in jesus

so i'm reading this RS article about HST's funeral, which is making me a weepy little bitch. i think they should treat thompson like the dalai lama, and immediately search out his reincarnation. i'm dead serious. anyway, it says in this article that dr. gonzo's remains were fired off to the tune of "spirit in the sky". cheeky bastard. what a cryin' shame to lose him.
