Word is from a friend of mine who works at HBO -- well, really a friend of a friend -- the whole Michael Richards freak-out: it's a plotline in the coming season of Curb Your Enthusiasm.  I told her, I don't know.  Him appearing on the Jessie Jackson show and all.  She said her friend wouldn't tell her anything else.  If true, I wonder if it was planned out in advance, or picked up after the fact.  It is the only thing that makes any sense.  Michael Richards out-borats Borat.  Which is why I think ultimately it's bullshit.
