I am using "Dr." Hunter S. Thompson's book, Better Than Sex: Confessions of a Political Junkie, in my honors American Government class. The students really enjoy it. HST makes references to many political figures, and literary figures: we look them up on the internet. We have just learned bout William Faulkner, checked out his web site, looked at pictures of his home. HST mentioned Faulkner's comment about refusing the invitation to John F. Kennedy's inauguration: "Just too far to go and I hate crowds," was his reply. Faulkner's web site.
