‘Mister state trooper, please don't stop me
Please don't stop me, please don't stop me…’
Bruce Springsteen





For a slightly more ‘modern’ version of Gangbusters.


‘You didn’t mean for your driver to get clipped. Not your fault. How you were you supposed to know he was going to get high right before the job? It was supposed to be simple. Now it’s anything but. You didn’t think you were going to make it on foot. Thank the gods of felonious behaviour she came round the corner when she did. 80 if she was a day, and not a clue what was going on. Now that you think about it, she did give you a rather peculiar smile when you drove away with her car. Who cares? Now you’ve got your gun, the goods, and a fairly decent getaway car. Smooth sailing…wait…what? Cops? Oh man, now what? Busted taillight? Can you believe that crap?’
