For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow, so saith Ecclesiastes 1:18.

I don't blame Hemingway much. He was starting to break down mentally, and he knew it. He lost his nerve. Thompson, on the other hand, was just a poseur.

" The hole in his forehead where the bullet went in was about the size of a pencil. The hole in the back of his head where the bullet came out was big enough to put your fist in, if it was a small fist and you wanted to put it there.

"I reckon you could have put your foot in the back of his head where the two barrels of heavy duck load splattered out even if it was a medium-sized foot, and you didn't want to put it there." W.S. Burroughs
