"Any $100-an-hour psychiatrist could probably explain this problem to me,
in thirteen or fourteen sessions, but I don't have time for that. No doubt
it has something to do with a deep-seated personality defect, or maybe a
kink in whatever blood vessel leads into the pineal gland . . . . On the
other hand, it might easily be something as simple & basically perverse as
whatever instinct it is that causes a jackrabbit to wait until the last
possible second to dart across the road in front of a speeding car.
People who claim to know jackrabbits will tell you they are primarily
motivated by Fear, Stupidity, and Craziness. But I have spent enough time
in jackrabbit country to know that most of them lead pretty dull lives; they
are bored with their daily routines: eat, fuck, sleep, hop around a bush now
& then . . . . No wonder some of them drift over the line into cheap thrills
once in a while; there has to be a powerful adrenaline rush in crouching by
the side of a road, waiting for the next set of headlights to come along,
then streaking out of the bushes with split-second timing and making it
across to the other side just inches in front of the speeding front wheels.
Why not? Anything that gets the adrenalin moving like a 440 volt blast
in a copper bathtub is good for the reflexes and keeps the veins free of
cholesterol . . . but too many adrenalin rushes in any given time-span has
the same bad effect on the nervous system as too many electro-shock
treatments are said to have on the brain: after a while you start burning
out the circuits.
When a jackrabbit gets addicted to road-running, it is only a matter of
time before he gets smashed--and when a journalist turns into a politics
junkie he will sooner or later start raving and babbling in print about
things that only a person who has Been There can possibly understand."
Dr. Hunter S. Thompson
Quoted from his book "Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72"
