Definitely slowing down a bit here....I did finish this book a couple of weeks ago, and haven't posted about it, but I'm in the process of 2 other books right now, and just can't seem to get focused on reading again.
For those of you who don't know, Kevin Smith is director (Clerks 1, 2, and soon to be 3, Dogma, Chasing Amy, Jersey Girl, Red State, and some others) and is a very funny man. Now, that being said, I probably wouldn't recommend this to anyone who 1) isn't a Kevin Smith fan or 2) doesn't already know who he is. He claims to make his living "off of dick and fart jokes" so if you are offended right now by that, don't pick up his book. =]
However, I LOVE Kevin Smith. I had recently watched "An Evening with Kevin Smith" and "An Evening with Kevin Smith 2" and had been exposed to quite a bit of him through Zach, and decided to read this book. Above all, Kevin seems to be one of the most genuine, unfiltered, and open people in show business, and I just want to be best friends with him. [I do not care in the slightest if this is something he consciously works towards to create a persona, but I really don't think it is.]
The follow-up to reading this is that I got Zach tickets to An Evening with Kevin Smith for his birthday (he was doing a set at the Chicago comic book convention.) Seriously - I love him. I felt so much better about life after sitting and listening to him talk for 2 and a half hours. [And considering the morning we'd had getting to Chicago, there was a LOT of stress to relieve.]
Anyways, since this was a collection of articles, I'm interested in reading his other book.
And now to find motivation to read the next 41 books....
