    I gotta say, you write in a very similar way to Anthony Bourdain. The cadence especially. I actually read it in his voice, well done.

      It was totally accidental, but that’s one one of the finest compliments I’ve ever been paid. I read Kitchen Confidential at a formative age, so I’m glad to have memorialized him however fleetingly in my dotage.

        Didn’t he rape children overseas and that’s why he killed himself? Because you knew it was going to get out?

        Nope I was WAY off. Don’t believe anything you hear, I should have looked deeper before accepting it as fact

          Couldn’t literally be the opposite. His partner Asia Argento, ironically a big proponent in the #metoo movement, got outed by fucking a 17 year old actor on set. Apparently he didn’t want her seeing him, despite being open, but after some posts of them together on social he killed himself a few weeks later.
