Especially that skate park from the Marseilles level in Tony Hawk 2, would love to visit that place.

Anyone have a link to the article comparing Anthony Bourdain to Alton Brown some years ago where they seemed to go with Bourdain being on top of the world, and Brown suffering from a spiritual crisis in the midst of a divorce?

Realized recently that No Reservations is on Hulu. Watched about 10 eps in the past couple of weeks. Most recently, the Penang episode.
