I've watched his shows on CNN (not a lot, but a few) he always looked so satisfied, but of course he was in turmoil inside to have done this deed.

Makes one wonder that money and success and having it made don't add up to happiness :oops:

I wonder if that other high profile suicide ofthe designer hand bag lady triggered his suicide?

His show always seemed like a nice way to make a living. Don't think I could handle all the liquor, but traveling and eating hell yeah. lol I guess you never know what demons somebody else is fighting.

Just goes to show that we don't know the internal "demons" that people are fighting every day.
