    Love him and even though he would hate my veggie ass, I still have him on my 43people list. :o

    I read part of a book by him, and I didn't like it. However, I like No Reservations. I think he has a lot of talent.

    Nasty Bits?
    I don't think so. It may have been an article. It was just very abrasive, which makes sense. He is still abrasive on screen, but he also recognizes his role as culinary ambassador. At least it seems that way to me.

    So...

    - You travel all over the world
    - You meet different people from different cultures every week
    - You get hammered with them
    - You eat all sorts of delicious dishes with different origins
    - They pay you a shitload of money for doing it

    Where do I sign? That must be the best job description EVER: "Occupation: Whatever Anthony Bourdain does"

    LOVE THIS SHOW!!! Been obsessed with it since I got back from my Asian trip (Fell in love with Hong Kong).

    I wish I had a job like that :(

    I know! I want to become a food writer when I watch that show, but then I realize my foodie path should be coming to an end, but then I realize I don't want it to come to an end because I want to eat the best pizza throughout the world, but then I realize I don't have the money to eat the best pizza throughout the world . . .I feel conflicted when I watch that show.

    You would have the money to eat the best pizza throughout the world if Anthony Bourdain gave you a job as part of his crew ;)
