Just discovered a
classic photo as I was rummaging through my closet:
my Dad Joe McGuinness and the WTIC morning legend Bob Steele at one of
Bob's always entertaining egg cooking demonstrations. I attended one
such event in a Food Mart in Middletown and was given the honor of
fetching the eggs, butter and cottage cheese on aisle 10. The 3 main
ingredients in Bob's' "eggs a la Steele." Yesssirrreee Bob. The year
was 1984. I'm guessing but I believe Bob was in his early 70s. The most
often asked question from the crowd was-"Hey Bob when are you going to
retire.?" His stock answer was always "8:00 tonite." LOL Always
remember Bob as a heck of a nice guy. He thanked me kindly for fetching
the foodstuffs. No radio "ego airs" about him. Where's "Uncle
Stainless" when you need Em.'
