Chappelle Chapelle has time to kill

This item, about Dave Chappelle, is floating around on the internet:

The 34-year-old comedian, who broke the Laugh Factory’s endurance record by taking to the stage for six hours and seven minutes in April, topped his record by telling jokes for six hours and 12 minutes on Sunday.

Endurance record?” When we speak of an endurance record here, are we referring to the audience?

This is starting to get a little strange. We look askance at any comic who wants to be on the stage that long. Do it once, it might be one of those once-in-a-lifetime, I’m-so-glad-I-was-present kinda things. Twice? Somebody’s got “issues.”

If Chappelle stops into the club where you’re working and asks to go on, make sure he goes on last!
