Best show I have ever seen on a unique area, where hipsters hang with desert derelicts.

The San Bernardinos had snow covering its peaks. Must have been February or March of this year.

...was interesting, although Bourdain's (producers) editing leads me astray at times...
We went to see him on stage, to give one of his 'talks' when he was in Sacto a while back - there was a good turnout, but I was a bit disappointed in
his presentation - most of his stories were interesting, but not really all that organized, IMHO...Can't put my finger on it, but he comes off as a
bit of an elitist...perhaps a bit more 'work' on his personal appearances to large groups...he works alone, without any assistants, I understand, and
it shows...just my two cents worth...
It is fun to see some of the off-beat places he visits on his shows...durrelllrobert - 8-15-2011 at 01:12 PM
