Rip Torn…great actor…likes to get ripped and walk the walk. Here’s his mugshot from a drunk driving incident in ‘07 (the Ripper was 75 at the time…)…

Pretty good work for a 75 year old cat. It would be enough to allow him to rest on his true believer, crazy ass, party animal laurels, yes?

No.

This time around, Rip got liquored up and tried to rob a bank. From Gawker

State police responded to an alarm at the Litchfield Bancorp building in Salisbury, CT at 9:40 PM last night. Police say they found Torn “with a loaded revolver” and he was “highly intoxicated.” Law enforcement sources tell us Torn gained access through a broken window, which they believe Torn broke himself. Torn was taken to the Troop B barracks in North Canaan and is being held on $100,000 bond. Cops say Torn was charged with carrying a pistol without a permit, carrying a firearm while intoxicated, first-degree burglary, first-degree criminal trespass and third-degree criminal mischief.

The old “criminal mischief”.

Well, I looked around for current mugshot and this is the photo I keep seeing…

Not sure it’s an actual mugger but, great photo none the less.

Rave on Rip!

Ahh…this is a drag. The word on the street was that 50 Cent would be playing Mr. T’s part in the new A-Team movie. But, according to Wooha!, the role will go to former U.F.C. champ, Rampage Jackson…

The cast is all but set as the modern day A-Team will follow a group of Iraq War veterans (changed from Vietnam) who are trying to clear their name with the U.S. military. They were arrested for committing a crime for which they were framed, and break out of a maximum-security stockade to clear their name. Cast includes Liam Neeson, Bradley Cooper and of course Rampage Jackson as B.A. Baracus.

While I don’t think it’s possible to duplicate the artistic finesse and socio-political impact of Mr. T, my choice would have been Fiddy.

What do you think?
