Steve and me...





After seeing the movie Bullitt I knew I wanted to be a cop.  I wanted to be Steve McQueen—with longer hair.  I became a cop.  Then when Steve died, well, I was too superstitious to continue to want to be him.  So I bought a Mustang Cobra.  It’s the horsepower that whispers in your ear when you're 45 going on 19, but it’s the "sound” that yells, "FISH ON!"  I didn't hesitate to sign on the dotted line. When I drove it home and parked it in my driveway, I looked back and thought, " Raggio, you are such a schmuck!"  1999 … it barely has 30K miles on it. 



I know what Steve would say: "Time starts now …”
