The "gonzo cannon" is all but completed, last-minute organizational details are being worked out and the countdown has begun -- on August 20, the ashes of the late Hunter S. Thompson will be blasted into the air above his home in Woody Creek.

It reportedly will cost an estimated $4 million, according to sources close to the effort. Those costs are being borne by actor Johnny Depp, a fellow Kentuckian and close friend of the late writer who portrayed Thompson in the film version of his seminal book, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas."
