He threw it in the trash after five pages--doesn't seem like one who is very open minded about the material. The fact that he is famous doesn't make his opinion extra valid... people who aren't famous speak their ignorance all the time, people usually don't listen though. But when a famous person does it, all of the sudden it's like the Oracle of wisdom. I'm looking forward to Sean Penn's upcoming hard-hitting interview with Fidel Castro.

All I know is that Chapelle is one of the most famous comedians around today. I wonder if for a moment he imagined that he would be successful, earlier in his career, when he wasn't successful. I wonder if he ever visualized standing on a stage with people applauding and laughing, imagined himself with his own t.v. show, making fun of white people for a living... I bet he visualized plenty.
