Dennis: Where Are My Booking Photos?

Anyway, I started wondering...where are my booking photos? Hey Larry Craig can't have all the memories, can he? And while we're on it, where are Butch Otter's booking photos? Remember when he was arrested for a DUI? But where are they? The Director of the Passion of the Christ ? Yep, Mel Gibson's got one...but where are Butch's and my mug shots ?? Oh, you're thinking that politicians have a "get out of jail-photo" card? Nope ...  Former US Rep. Tom Delay (pictured) personally told me that he dressed up in a suit and a tie and smiled when he was booked...so when it landed on the front of Time magazine, it would look like any old political photo (Smart guy.) ... Find my photos and the photos of my co-conspirators from that day and I'll place 'em on my blog!/Dennis Mansfield. More here.

DFO: "I've never been arrested but I should have been, during my misspent youth."

Question: Dennis' post here is a coffee spitter. Which caused me to wonder whether there are any of you out there who are willing to admit that you've been booked into jail -- and have a booking photo floating around somewhere?
