Raoul Duke: [narrating] We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like:
Raoul Duke: I feel a bit lightheaded. Maybe you should drive.
Raoul Duke: [narrating] Suddenly, there was a terrible roar all around us, and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, and a voice was screaming:
Raoul Duke: Holy Jesus. What are these goddamn animals?
[swatting the air]
Raoul Duke: Huh! Huh! Huh! Fucking pigs.
Dr. Gonzo: Did you say something?
Raoul Duke: Hm? Never mind. It's your turn to drive.
Raoul Duke: [narrating] No point in mentioning these bats, I thought. Poor bastard will see them soon enough.

It confused me. There was no clear story.
I know it was intentional, but still.

it about journalism and drug trips and what not.
most ppl dont get it but you kinda have to know about garbacho journalism to understand...
then it makes a world of a difference when you watch it.

I actually wasn't crazy about the movie. I think I missed something. I'm going to watch it again cause it's totally my type of flick, I just couldn't get into it.

I love every single second of that movie.

I am waiting for you to flee the scene
