Get Some Help, Artie Lange!

This is getting too serious for our taste.
Funnyman Artie Lange, whose heaviness, history of drug abuse and overall mental health are constant fodder for some unfortunately hilarious banter on The Howard Stern Show, was busted Friday on suspicion of DUI after being involved in a fender bender in New Jersey.
Police found no indication that Lange was "under the influence of illicit drugs," Toms River Police Capt. Steve Henry told the Asbury Park Press.
But the police detective who happened upon a minor traffic collision at around 1:30 p.m. determined that Lange was under the influence of something. After he was taken into custody, a sample of one fluid or another was taken at the police station and sent off to the lab for analysis.
Meanwhile, Lange has been charged with driving under the influence of an intoxicant and careless driving.
Lange was "100 percent cooperative," Henry said.
That's all well and good, but maybe this will finally be the misstep that gets Lange into the more intensive rehab he seems to really, really need.
And what will Howard and Robin say about this on Monday?
