CELEBRITY Q AND A:RICK HOFFMAN FROM USA'S SUITS-EXCLUSIVE!

Several years ago, I was walking near the, Universal Studios Studio Store on the lot. Hoffman,wearing his trademark black suit and Satan red tie walks-by me. I stop,turn and say "Excuse me, Are you the guy from Cellular?" He also played a fey,mean-as-a-snake lawyer in that flick, as well. 

Rick Hoffman (smug, but pleased smile): "Yeah. That's me."

I go to shake his hand. When he returns to the favor, (Honest to God) he goes in does- a early 80s, ultra Black handshake with me. I felt trapped in an episode of Different Strokes or something. Afterwards, we finish with a modern Fist bump complete with daps. He looked so proud of himself.

I'm not sure whether: to be offended or impressed he knew Black handshakes, better than me. So I tell him, "Great to meet you man" and he responds "Yeah, Me too." Apparently, the handshaking took a lot out of him- as he appears to be breathing heavily, as we turn to go our separate ways.
