CHRISTOPHER HITCHENS: GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN

There was Hunter S Thompson.

There is still PJ O’Rourke.

And then there was Christopher Hitchens.

“Hitcho” died on Thursday.

We met him a few times and it took us a few days to recover from those meetings.

He worked hard, he played harder and his brain worked on Overload all the time.

He was a “Man’s Man” and a womanizer when it suited him.

He was saint and sinner.

Charmer and argumentative shitbag.

And one of the best goddamn writers we have ever known.

Have one on us, mate.

You lived longer than many of us thought you would.

Go get some rest now, you hear?

Or knowing you, you’d be creating hell no matter where you are.

Pour us a Johnny Walker Black, will you?

Ta.

Cheers, mate.
