Dave Chappelle was on my flight back home yesterday. He is a comic genius who seemed to suffer a breakdown at the peak of his career in 2005. In the middle of the third season of his fantastic and groundbreaking show, Chappelle’s Show on Comedy Central, he stunned his fans and the network by walking out, never to return.

He was the last one on the plane and sat in the very last row, carrying with him an HD video camera and a big smile. He appeared to be shooting material for a skit. I’ve heard he may bring the show back in  2009…

If you’ve never seen the show, here is a classic skit.
