No Reservations with Anthony Bourdain on the Travel Channel is the best thing on t.v. right now.  I keep harping on this, but nobody wants to listen.  No show on the tube does a better job contrasting disgusting displays of wealth with disgusting displays of poverty - last night's Sao Paulo episode is a perfect example.  And it's all done through food with a healthy dose of smart ass commentary.  They're re-showing the Lebanon episode this Sunday from last year that was being filmed just as the shit hit the fan - compelling stuff.

thanks for the suggestion.  i'll check that out.

Go out and rent or Season I and II of Rome. Fantastic TV.

he is an amazing writer, too.

and the fact that he is an extremely attractive man doesn't hurt, either!

Kitchen Confidential is one of my favorite books ever.  Anyone who's toiled in restaurants for years knows all of those people.  Attractive?  Well, I guess years of binge drinking, chain smoking, and hard-core drug abuse have had a positive effect on Mr. Bourdain for some of us.

this was a great episode. my favorite moment was when anthony took his friend to that chili place. the friend did not want to eat the chili/noodles combo, but anthony said, "the bottom line is: you would love this if you were stoned."

I find the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame to be disturbing.  Marky Ramone pointing to a glass case full of sanitized Ramone Memorabilia?

Kevin Nealon is the best: "Don't ask me, I'm fucked up on cornbread!"

the first episode of the new season was a bit of a let down.  nothing was resolved, at all.  that's my only complaint with the show, you never feel satisfied.
