Introduction
There I stood, staring frustrated in front of my bathroom mirror, once again trying
to flex my scrawny toothpick of an arm in hopes of seeing SOME signs of
progress for all of my hard work at the gym. My hopes dashed once again, I left
the house for my monthly trek to the local grocery store and bought the
bodybuilding magazine that had the largest ÐmutantÑ pro bodybuilder I could find
on the front cover.
Running home into my bedroom as excited as a 13-year-old boy who just found
his momÓs VictoriaÓs Secret catalog in the mailbox, I thumbed through it,
desperately searching for something (hell ANYTHING!) that would give me some
clue as to what I was doing wrong with my weight training. I breezed past every
single article giving me the same old adviceÈÐeat this much proteinÑÈÐdo this
bench press for this many repsÑÈyeah, yeah, yeahÈblah, blah, blahÈbought
that supplementÈdidnÓt workÈbought that oneÈdidnÓt workÈdidnÓt buy that
oneÈÑ You get the picture.
And then I saw it!
It was a small ad in the back of the classified section that read:
Tired of trying to flex toothpick arms
in front of your bathroom mirror?
We have the natural anabolic
compounds that will finally help you
achieve massive amounts of muscle
with no side effects.
Legal Steroids!
Call now ### - ### - ####
It was as if the ad were speaking directly to ME! And here was the best
partÈthe number to call was actually located in MY home town!
I immediately picked up the phone and dialed. I spoke to a guy who answered
the phone. He seemed cool enoughÈso I stuttered with excitement as I told him
about my frustration with not being able to build as much muscle as I wanted to.

I told him that I saw his ad and, ironically, I noticed that I lived in the same city as
him, and I asked him where his company was located.
I couldnÓt believe it when he told me. He was only 3 BLOCKS AWAY!
When I told him I was right around the corner, he was as surprised as I
wasÈand then he asked me to Ðcome on overÑ and he would Ðhook me upÑ with
some serious supplements that would finally do the trick!
I jumped in my car and drove straight to the address he gave me. Expecting to
arrive at a small manufacturing building or business park, I was more than a little
shocked when I pulled up to a SINGLE STORY HOUSE in my residential
neighborhood. I sat there scratching my head, trying to determine if I had heard
him correctly or maybe I jotted down the wrong number in my haste to take him
up on his personal invitation before it was retracted.
Confused, I walked up and rang the doorbell and was soon greeted by a ripped
giant, still in his workout clothes, and wearing a telephone headset on his head.
He motioned to me to come in as he was talking with (undoubtedly) another
frustrated hardgainer on the other end of the line desperately searching for the
same solution I was. I listened intently as I walked into the living room of the
Ðsupplement companyÑ and took a seat on the couch he motioned me over to.
I listened intently as he Ðmade the saleÑ to the other guy on the line and jotted
down his order and credit card number.
ÐThe total will be $113.56. Will that be MasterCard or Visa?Ñ
Wow, I thought. I hope IÓm able to walk out of here holding on to more of last
weekÓs paycheck that THAT guy!
When he finished his sale and had hung up, he extended a cheerful hand and
greeted me with a big smile and said, ÐCÓmon JeffÈfollow me!Ñ
I walked behind him to a small room connected to the living room and found a
large table on which there were small bins, some cardboard boxes with pictures
of cows on it, some funnels, and a strange metal machine.
ÐWelcome to my Òproduction facilityÓ!Ñ he said.
ÐThis is it?Ñ I replied in shock.
ÐYepÈthatÓs all it takes!Ñ he said, beaming proudly over his work.
