Rip Torn Got Another DUI


Sometimes you crave weird things when you're drunk. For the 30 Rock actor, it was a Christmas tree. On December 14th he got into his Subaru, headed down to the nearest tree lot in his Connecticut neighborhood, probably haggled over the price a bit, picked one out and had it strapped to the roof of the car. His downfall was driving home in the breakdown lane. Cops pulled him over and he couldn't pass the field sobriety test. (he's 77. how many people that age can toe-heel walk? Cloris Leachman maybe, but she works out.)

Anyway, no one was hurt, except for the tree.

Sam Shepard Arrested for DUI


TMZ is reporting that the playwrite/actor was pulled over for speeding in Normal, Illinois and blew a 0.175. That's a lot of whiskey, folks. And boy, does it show. At least we know that he is not a plastic surgery junkie. That is all-natural beauty right there. No doubt about it.
Okay, I'll give the guy a break. He is 65 after all.
