No caption, but it appears from the position of Ice-T’s right arm that he’s the one taking the picture of himself and Rich. Most likely to show his friends while he says, “Seriously, even the DUDES were wearing these outrageous hats!”

Comment by South of Sherman Monday, May 7, 12 @ 2:32 pm
Ice-T has just learned that Rich “the producer” of a political blog.

Seriously, though. How cool is that?
I loved Ice-T back in the day, along with the Beasties. RIP Adam Yauch.

Ice T and Rich Miller, in discussions on new Law and Order spin-off, Law and Order: SBU (Special Bloggers Unit), a show about the sordid underbelly of the blogging world.

Comment by Sir Reel Monday, May 7, 12 @ 3:05 pm
Shortly after this picture is taken Ice T breaks out into rap: “Rich is a nightmare walking, psychopath talking, king of the capitol, just a gangster stalking, living life like a fire cracker quick as his pen!”

That cardboard cut out …of Rich Miller … is a celebrity favorite.

“Exibit 91-R, That is me, Your Honor, with “Ice T” at the Derby. There is no way I ate the last Deep Fried Snickers, no way!”

“will you take off the sunglasses?”
“No.”

“Rich, just call me Ice T, not Mr. T, that is someone else …”

“When I first saw you, I thought you were Denzel.”
“When I first saw YOU, I thought, ‘is that Mayor Daley?’…”

“I just want to say, I loved you in ‘The Game Plan’ …”

One of you is inappropiately dressed for the occasion.

Comment by capncrunch Monday, May 7, 12 @ 3:37 pm
While Rich followed the rules in the Derby Scavenger Hunt, his team was penalized for NOT getting an Ice Tea, but taking a picture of Ice T.

“Excuse me, are you from Long Island?”

“Thank you so mcuh. I am going to hang this up between my pictures of me with George Ryan, and me with Rod Blagojevich.”

Comment by Oswego Willy Monday, May 7, 12 @ 3:41 pm
Ice T and Rich should redo “99 Problems”.

“I usually don’t take pictures with the ‘Extras’, but that costume is too much, so what the heck.”

“Mr. Ice T, can you smile please?”

“Should I call you Dwayne or ‘The Rock’?”

Comment by Oswego Willy Monday, May 7, 12 @ 3:49 pm
It got awkward when Rich told ICE that his favorite episode of The Doctors was the one where they did the ultrasound of Mrs. ICE-T’s backside

For those who are confused how Rich Miller and Ice T were in the same Skybox at a horse race, it’s pretty obvious… two words … Jim Edgar.

Comment by Oswego Willy Monday, May 7, 12 @ 4:04 pm
===…more like a John Daly ===

Very good! My apologies to you, Commissioner Fritchey,… and I guess to John Daley too.

Comment by Oswego Willy Monday, May 7, 12 @ 4:06 pm
Hon. Fritchey …

I was melding the reference to Mayor Daley too …

Hat tip to the “John Daly”

Coming soon to a theatre near you, the much anticipated remake of the hit movie Goodfellas, starring Rich Miller as Morris Kessler & Ice T as Stacks Edwards, the 2 casualties following the Lufthansa heist.

What do I win?

Comment by TCB Monday, May 7, 12 @ 4:24 pm
Ice T looks like he got caught dishing Rich some news, and it must have been good because Rich is all red.

Tough guy from the ‘hood poses with Ice-T.

I see a slight Don Fanucci resemblance…

Comment by Wensicia Monday, May 7, 12 @ 4:46 pm
The real question is will Ice-T run the same caption contest on his blog?

Comment by Bluefish Monday, May 7, 12 @ 4:49 pm
“Politicians plan for power each and every day
We are all just puppets in the games they play
They manipulate the message to attain their goals
And for simple re-election they will sell their souls”

Comment by Jake From Elwood Monday, May 7, 12 @ 4:58 pm
Ice-T: OK, well since you asked, Rich, it’s called For Men Only and most of us in “the biz” use it. I mean, aren’t we all just tryin’ to keep the young up-and- comers at bay for at least a few more years?

Comment by Responsa Monday, May 7, 12 @ 5:26 pm
It’s 85 degrees, humid, cloudy and NO breeze. Why is one man wearing sunglasses indoors and one man wearing a hat, tie, and sportcoat?

Det. Fin Tutuola: Okay, always wanted to know this.

Rich Miller: What?

Det. Fin Tutuola: Will Bill ever stop writing me to help prove that Blagojevich is innocent?

Sorry, Bill. Couldn’t pass that one up.
