Smith Fugit

Kevin Smith has a nifty "cameo'' in "Live Free or Die Hard,'' playing a computer genius named Warlock.

The inside jokes fly, among them, Warlock having a soft spot for daughters.

Smith's own daughter, Harley, just turned 8 on June 26; Kevin turns 37 in July.

Warlock is a fast-talking geek who knows all the nuances of computer technology, which is apt since Smith has been a pioneer in the blogosphere and interactive Websites, with his http://www.viewaskew.com/ arriving years ahead of almost everybody else (around 1994).

And vanity does not seem to be Smith's name: he now has a large bald spot at the back of his head, and he makes no attempt to conceal it in "Live Free or Die Hard.''

Gotta love it.
