Wayne,

After watching these films its apparent that HST had cameras around a large amount of the time. was this something hunter organized himself or was it more due to promptings by those who wished to film him?? if the filming was done at HST’s request, it makes for a good argument that he was one of the first to come up w/ the concept of “reality TV”. considering some of the content on today’s reality shows, hunter wd have been a ratings blockbuster in his heyday.

any response wd be greatly appreciated.

Enjoy keeping up with your work…

I see it’s up now and I’m going to go read it. I’ve seen that video. I wrote an essay on Hunter at my show today. Here it is:

Hey Wayne, I’m a big fan of all your films and love the new video blog. I’ll be checking it often for new content.

I see that right now you are using one of the basic WordPress headers for your page. Being someone who uses the same layout for my own site and having crafted a few custom headers for myself I thought it’d be fun to make one for you and see if you’d like to use it while you make one of your own.

I tried attaching it to an email sent to the contact email on your site, but it bounced back. Contact me through my site and I’ll send it over to see what you think.

Keep up the good work!

I’m enjoying the video blog and your stories. I never met Hunter Thompson but met people that knew him. I thought he was a great writer and my favorite book is Hell’s Angels. Keep up the good work.
