I am concerned about Dave Chappelle
So the stories are flying fast and furious about what happened to Dave Chappelle. I really hate the whole celebrity-mongering thing (which, it seems to me, is part of the poor guy's problem right now), but I'm a fan and I hope he gets his shit together and makes a triumphant comeback soon.

He seems ok from his recent interviews. Time (aka Jesus Weekly) has a good article.

Thanks; yeah, I actually read that one yesterday. So, I'm hopeful. If Time is Jesus Weekly, then Newsweek is Pope Weekly... (based on the issues I have received since my subscription started a month and a half ago...)

I'm concerned about that weird brown stain on his shirt. did he burn it when he was ironing?

Doesn't this count as celebrity-mongering?

Well, yes, which is why I qualified the post. Although I wouldn't mob the guy in public. I'd let him enjoy a quiet lunch at the bistro without hounding him for an autograph. Seeing as I find myself luncheoning at the bistro so often.
