That's your goal.
If you become a hang-around?

I've seen it take years.
With me, I was a hang-around a few months, then I was a prospect.
And at the time...
the club, the Hell's Henchmen in Chicago, they were having a little squirmish with another motorcycle club by the name of the DC Eagles at our club in Chicago.
And it was just the, I say the schoolyard stuff, the seeing each other in bars, fighting, you know, no shootings, no bombings, nothing what became later, right?
It was just a little tit for tat stuff.
And as a prospect and being young, I was out and wanting to be part of that.

till four or five o'clock in the morning with the fellows going home, making my lunch for the day and getting on my job site at 637 in the morning.

So you can do all that.
Right.
And, you know, and now I'm learned what testosterone was at 19 from from some of the fellows in the gym.
And I started taking some testosterone and a few antibiotics, the deckers and stuff like that.
And I grew.
My dad was a bigger frame guy, not from bodybuilding, just a bigger frame guy.
