My idol was "Dick West" from The Range Rider. He was the side kick. I was about 6-8. Dick had a black suit, with lots of shiny buttons He was a thin, athletic character on the show.. He was just sooooo cool. It's been so long that I only remember that I just about worshiped him. I used to pretend my name was Dick West.
