Poor Mike Wallace. After a hard day of working on his 60 Minutes show, all he wanted on his way home from work was some meatloaf, and he ended up being arrested for disorderly conduct. I give major props to Mike - he's the start of one of the longest running tv shows in the history of tv, and he went into the restaurant to pick up his meatloaf hisself; he didn't send some flunky or assistant to get it. I'm sure most celebs would not dare pick up their own carry-out; I know Jessica Simpson wouldn't. I bet that as Mike was being hauled off in handcuffs, he was looking around for Ashton Kutcher thinking "Did Andy Rooney punk me?" They only kept Mike at the police station for an hour, and then he went home, where he heated up his meatloaf in the microwave.
I would think that with all of the new terroristic threats against the NY Stock Exchange and other key financial conglomerates in and around NYC, you'd think that New York's finest would be a bit more concerned with preventing another terrorist attack than arresting an 86 year-old man because he ran into a restaurant to get his meatloaft while his driver was double parked.

Mike Wallace looks damn good for 86. And he said the meatloaf was very good. You go, Mike!
