However you feel about Smash Mouth's music, his death is a tragedy of self immolation.

Alcoholism is serious, folks. Do your best to talk to your drinking friends about it sooner than later.

Also, don't judge alcoholics, they often have very real pain they are drowning in. From what I understand Harwell lost a child to leukemia many years ago and has been in a downward spiral with alcohol since.

He lost his 6 month old. I have battled with alcoholism before, I don't think I'd be able to keep up the fight if I lost my kids.
