Snootch to the Nootch

Got a good one for ya. Kevin Smith has a blog, which isn't all that surprising. But the thing I really wanted to link is Smith's nine-part account of his life with Jason Mewes. What you know is that Mewes and Smith are also known as "Jay and Silent Bob." What you might know is that Mewes had a pretty serious drug problem in the 90s (and into the aughts). What you don't know (or at least I didn't) is just how Smith fought and fought and fought to keep Mewes alive and around. I'm only two chapters in as I write this, because they're pretty long, but it's a tremendous story, and Smith is a hell of a writer (obviously). Give it a look when you have a little time.
