thesearetheirstories.blogspot.com/2011/04/ice-t-appears-on-today-show-to-discuss.htmlIce-T (Law & Order SVU) appeared on the Today Show on April 26, 2011 to discuss his new book "Ice: A Memoir Of Gangster Life And Redemption-From South Central To Hollywood.” Here’s a photo from his appearance with co hosts Hoda Kotb and Kathy Lee Gifford. I haven’t found the a video clip from the show but if/when I do, I will post it here. An excerpt of his book is also available on the Today show site

My parents raised me and my sisters pretty much the same way Ice-T's parents raised him. I agree with him that if parents coddle a kid too much, that kid won't know or learn how to take care of hmself or herself. My mom's way of not spoiling me and my sisters rotten was to either threaten us with sending us to live in a refugee camp or to tell us about when she and our dad were our age. Try telling that to my cousins' children.

That was when any one of us complained about the little stuff, by the way.

Thanks. Maybe if I saw Ice, I'd tell him that. ;-)

I like how he owns up to stealing and says that he could have just bought it.
