Bourdain Day

In honor of the late Anthony Bourdain
chefs have dubbed what would have been his 63rd birthday
"Bourdain Day"

to celebrate his deep passion for life
and mindful appreciation of the world's cultures.

And less than two weeks ago
on June 14th

President Trump
spent almost a million dollars on Facebook ads
encouraging people to sign his birthday card

because certainly otherwise

people would forget
that such a man is aging.
