I laughed my _ss off! That's the one thing we can take away from that video, Dave Chapelle is a funny dude.

I would personally agree and disagree with him. I think a positive attutide goes a long way towards creating a successful and happy life. I also don't think IM works the way The Secret sort of implies. For example, I agree with Dave that it would be inappropriate to go to a starving African village and tell the people to "be more positive". I don't think a starving person in the midst of a nation wide famine can visualize and manifest a roast beef sandwich (to build on Dave's analogy) out of thin air...
