Links to my reactions to the death of Anthony Bourdain

I first posted at deathwatch on JournalFen: Anthony Bourdain (1956 – 2018), celebrity chef, author, and TV host. When I reposted at my personal journal there, I wrote, "This hits me hard, as I have been a fan of his since I read "Kitchen Confidential." People also said I sound like him."

At Crazy Eddie's Motie News, I made a less personal point: Anthony Bourdain's and Kate Spade's deaths call attention to rising suicide rates in the U.S. This is part of a larger trend displayed in the following graphic from Business Insider.



I'm not done with this piece of news. I plan on using it to update U.S. life expectancy falls prompting Russian analogies from 2016. I'll post a link here when I do.
