    Could be worse though. At least the guy is self aware and knows he needs some sort of help. Better to be checking himself in than having to be escorted in in a straight jacket.

    He got through 5 shows for season 3 then bails...and has all these "friends with no names" giving up there account of what he is going through?

    "Freaked out", "drugs", "difference of opinion w/comendy central" "pushing the racial envelope"

    Mnnnn? Seems like he is putting together some great material to play off of to me...and even if he isnt, he can play off it anyway and nobody will be the wiser.

    Dave is a genius. I believe he going to out do himself this time. He's winding up w/a 50,000,000 swing IMO.

    A woman? Money conversion rate? Hiding from someone? The sell weed on the streets there? Real Estate? Hell, who knows...my answer would be, "because he can" Plus, if he checked in a place in Ohio, maybe it would affect his family name or something. Who in the hell wants to be in Ohio anyway.

    You heard that it's a publicity stunt on MTV or you just heard about it on MTV?

    I heard on CNN that the 3rd season is cancelled.

    I've been pretty stressed as well lately... felt like I needed to get away for a while. I've been trying to choose... Relax on a beach in Mexico, or check-in to a loony bin in S. Africa.... hmmm.... I suppose either one is good.

    STFU dick I was making a point... If he was here it could be verified, there I would say it is a publicity stunt... Well, we all know how nice the medical practices are in africa

    Its about the keesh, he was upset that he barely made any profit off of the first season dvd it made over 60 million in sales. Comedy central was not going to share it with him. Know he is basically seeing who else would be interested in him.

    Who knows the truth, but that would be one hell of a stupid move to claim to be put in a mental institution to see who would want him next. Too much drugs if you ask me, get that dude a steak and some dbol and tell him to chill out. Besides he is a million aire already, what stress could he possible have.

    Two weeks after going AWOL from his Comedy Central show, comedian Dave Chappelle has finally spoken out about his flight to South Africa. Denying that he is in a mental health facility or that he is on drugs, Chappelle chalked his disappearance up to a combination of stress, creative angst over the ideas for his show, and the fact that he's sometimes a "difficult dude."

    You'd be surprised how alone/depressed/bored/etc. you can feel even when you have financial freedom.

    I used to think like that myself, and although I'm not a millionaire (YET!!!!!!) I can tell you that money solves very little as far as happiness and individual problems one may encounter. Money is nice to have, yes, but it's not an end all to problematic situations.

    I hear ya, but still I feel if I had, lets say a ridiculous amount like 20 million, that I would find things that interest me, start new bussiness's, give to charity's, help family and friends. I guess its how you look at it. But I do know what you mean, my neighbor has a couple of mil. in the bank and he is lonely and one mean mofo.
