I can't sleep.
One could argue that this is because it's the middle of the afternoon. But to those of us that are true, hard core slackers, this has never presented a problem before.
At 6:00 I will head out to catch the 7:30 showing of Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. At the risk of sounding pathetic, I've been waiting all summer for this. My small state of Iowa has been granted a preliminary glimpse at what is sure to be a fitting end to the Jersey chronicles, as well as the last cinematic appearence of he characters we love, the ones we emulate, and the ones we are pretty sure are based on people we know.
I can't wait.
But I just wanted to take this chance to say thank you to all the View Askew personel, as well as the posters on this board. When I saw Clerks, a long time ago, seemingly another life, I felt like I'd seen something very special, something that would define my life. And now, awaiting the hour of the last film, I feel as though this section of my life is complete.
It's been fun.
Thank you to all of you. The ones who kept this place going. The ones who spoke for all of us. Those of you who work the jobs the rest of us would commit homicide for, because you've made them so amazing.
And to Dr. Kevin Smith, all I can say is that we were lucky to have a hero like you. Someday, I hope to shake your hand, and tell you so face to face. Maybe in time, I will.
'Till then, Thank you.
Luke.
