I don't necessarily feed bad but it does seem strange.

Sure Mr Bourdain was smart, funny, and very interesting. Many of us lived vicariously through his wild adventures.

Some of you had the luck to meet him for a few minutes... but by in large most of us only knew his 'in front of the camera' persona... much like Robin Williams... a guy the appeared to have the world on a string but obviously he had a dark side.

But in the end he was just another human being, very sad that he chose to take his own life. However how many of us know people at work that we see every day, maybe chat with them in the hall or the lunchroom... then they die and we don't think anything of it.

P.S. I hope no one thought me quoting the song was supposed to be funny... more just relevant to what he himself said in the interview.
