82		122.5892	I've been catering	123.2732

85	DCB_int_01	126.6098	Do you-	127.4406
87		127.7776	do you do that a lot?	128.8661

89	DCB_int_01	129.5968	Do you cater a lot?	130.2508
90	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	130.5277	Um,	131.0582
92		131.9124	initially when I first started,	133.1469
94		133.3004	it was a favor.	134.5483
96		134.7126	That's how it started off. Because I always knew I can cook	136.9815
98		137.5120	cause my mother's from the south, so.	139.2586
100		140.1187	Her southern cooking and my city	141.7637
102		142.6712	met. But	143.2918
104		143.8156	how it happened was, a friend knew I could cook and wanted me to cook for her- her grandmother's repass.	148.5936
106		149.0683	I was doing it as a favor.	150.1393
108		151.0101	Um, but	151.6374
110		151.7684	<clears throat> when I was packing up and leaving,	153.5017
112		153.7603	her mom came to me	155.0049
114		155.6421	and then was like, um,	156.6198
116		157.0202	hold on I got something for you.	158.2213
118		158.8127	She was handing me some money. I was like, no it was a favor for your daughter. She was like, no.	162.6731
120		163.3338	Um, take this because you did a good job. And then	166.0147
122		166.5110	a lot of her family members were aksing me, well you have any business cards? I was like, what, no. Cause I- <laugh>	170.7227
124		171.1063	I don't do this r- <laugh> I don't do this on a regular basis.	173.2017
126		174.0425	So, um,	174.9067
128		175.8977	after that, I got to thinking, I said, maybe I should. So,	178.0239
130		179.1784	I think she had another event like a birthday party and I came with business cards	182.8795
132		183.4467	after I did the party and I passed them out. And I guess	185.8290
134		186.5731	word got out through them, they passed on cards to other individuals.	189.3920
136		189.7169	Other people started finding out I can cook so I been doing it for like the last four years.	193.1536
138		193.5215	And this was something I had never really initially	195.5635
140		195.9305	wanted to do	196.6412
142		196.9114	on my own.	197.3674
143	DCB_int_01	198.0459	Hm.	198.3328
145		198.6598	But see, it's one little-	200.2313
146	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	200.3590	That's all it takes.	201.2398
147	DCB_int_01	201.1964	Just one opportunity [opens up] a door, you just never know.	204.1727
148	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	202.7413	[Mm.]	203.0249
149		204.2794	Yup.	204.5630
150	DCB_int_01	204.7399	Um, where were your parents born? Where were your father and mother born?	207.1998

170	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	231.8037	Dad was	232.9437

174		237.0730	um, and dad worked in maintenance as well.	239.3285
175	DCB_int_01	241.8243	Okay.	242.2547
177		242.5992	I'm gonna-	243.0899
179		243.5735	That's all I need to write.	244.6508
180	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	244.8080	Mm.	245.0516
181	DCB_int_01	245.9925	Alright.	246.2694
183		246.6498	So we're just gonna-	247.4631
184	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	247.6174	[<clears throat>]	248.1546
185	DCB_int_01	247.8943	[kind of] just talk. Um,	249.3432
186		250.3242	So tell me a little bit about	251.7422
188		251.8523	Bruce Place as w- as you remember growing up.	254.2113
189	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	255.1464	Um,	255.4224
191		255.5268	l- looking at it	256.3542
193		257.0018	/I'll just say/ from other individuals from the outside, I mean,	259.6875
195		259.7609	to them,	260.3248
197		260.4490	it look- they	261.1397
199		261.3432	I guess	261.8486
201		262.2041	would see that as a bad neighborhood.	263.8423
203		264.0859	Of course growing up	264.9234
205		265.5173	in what they call like, the crack era which is, you know, from the eighties,	269.1053
207		269.5821	mid-eighties on,	270.4596
209		271.0969	um, I wasn't really exposed to that.	272.7694
211		273.4200	I mean I had a lot of friends	274.7279
213		274.9415	growing up that were	276.1161
215		277.3271	I guess you would say selling drugs or in the streets, but.	280.2374
217		281.4386	Uh, one of 'em was my older brother,	283.0346
219		283.3938	I mean.	283.7642
221		284.1746	But	284.5817
223		285.0263	I think	285.4500
225		286.5110	my personality was to-	288.1026
227		289.1102	I learned from what- my brother not to do. I mean, that's the only thing I can say he ever taught me	293.1373
228	DCB_int_01	293.6655	[Mm.]	293.9748
229	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	293.7990	[was-]	294.3328
230		294.8934	All the wrong he done	295.9619
232		296.7193	I didn't wanna dabble in it.	297.5968
234		297.8504	And plus I was scared of my mother so I- <laugh>	299.5554
235	DCB_int_01	299.7422	<laugh>	300.0359
236	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	300.6231	Yeah cause- I mean, growing up	301.7809
238		302.3256	on Bruce Place,	303.1638
240		303.2698	um,	303.7805
242		304.8614	it was pretty m- It's five of us, it was five of us.	306.8733
244		307.4239	I have,	308.1179
246		308.8261	um,	309.3466
248		310.2441	a older brother, a younger brother, and a younger sister, but my older sister passed like, two thousand two.	314.1880
249	DCB_int_01	314.3122	Mm, sorry to hear that.	315.1030
250	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	315.3065	But, um, it was pretty much my mom.	317.1083
252		319.0602	She was mom and dad at the same time.	320.9813
254		321.6675	And growing up /?/ in- in that neighborhood, I mean,	323.6221
256		324.6031	that was around the time, of course,	326.0345
258		326.7360	no electronics	327.8070
260		328.1107	at all. We was outside, all day.	330.0092
262		331.2037	I mean, it was violence in the- the neighborhood,	333.0897
264		333.7603	so to speak. Whereas	334.8647
266		335.0983	that's what everybody was-	336.2294
268		336.7232	I guess	337.3238
270		338.0912	the gang thing was more so more fighting than shooting.	340.4565
271	DCB_int_01	341.1183	Mm.	341.4019
272	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	341.6321	But,	342.0092
274		342.7199	I mean, I never dabbled in- in, I- I never felt the need to.	345.6869
276		345.8504	I never wanted to.	346.7580
278		347.5788	But	347.9124
280		348.5697	I think that	349.2570
282		350.1821	it's a lot of things that I know I wanted as a child,	352.9532
284		353.5354	but I was satisfied with the things that I had because I saw at a early age that	356.6217
286		357.6469	my mother was busting her tail	358.9327
288		359.7422	to support all of us by herself, so.	361.8476
290		362.1487	I mean, I t- that was enough for me.	363.6269
291	DCB_int_01	364.9315	So,	365.4553
293		365.7156	couple of things I wanna ask you about.	367.0769
294	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	367.0502	Mm-hm.	367.3555
295	DCB_int_01	367.3405	When you say you played outside, what'd y'all do?	368.9307
296		369.3165	Like what [kind of games and stuff?]	370.4672
297	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	369.6035	[Uh, f- uh],	370.4022
298		370.6879	uh, basketball, football, tag,	373.0315
300		373.8518	um,	374.4057
302		374.9762	I was more- more so into sports.	376.8580
304		377.0215	I still am actually.	378.0459
306		378.4229	But	378.6665
308		378.7999	sports, anything then was sports. And I think back then it was a lot of rec centers	382.0519
310		382.5644	we can go to.	383.2384
312		383.6488	Um, of course the Boys and Girls Club. Um,	385.9878
314		386.4958	I don't know if you remember, it was a o- o- a organization called OSAY.	389.3552
315	DCB_int_01	390.0926	Mm-mm.	390.4432
316	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	390.8567	I can't remember what it stands for but it was like a- um, it was similar to the Boys and Girls Club.	395.0783
318		395.6355	Whereas though after school you go there to do activities	398.4849
320		398.6326	they involved you in sports, we went fishing.	400.5911
322		401.3218	And it faded out cause I think it was funded by the- um,	403.6708
324		404.9062	the government. I think it's a organization that, um,	406.9948
326		407.3419	Marion Barry was affiliated with as well.	409.2003
328		409.4647	So it was r- pretty much in like the DC-	411.2498
330		411.8871	DC area.	412.5878
332		413.4453	Um,	414.0125
334		415.1570	that was pretty much it. I mean, /and/ as far as activities we played tag, football, basketball.	419.2584
336		419.9391	Um,	420.4229
338		421.0135	or	421.5106
340		422.4557	in somebody yard doing something playing music or something. I mean, because	425.5287
342		426.1026	that was when	426.9067
344		427.2904	<clears throat>	427.6411
346		428.4457	I guess, y- if you- if- if	430.0873
348		430.1974	you in a- like a closed in like, neighborhood,	432.3495
350		433.3672	um,	433.9110
352		434.2422	you knew everybody on the entire street.	436.0206
354		436.7313	And everybody mom knew you on the entire street. So we-	439.3171
356		440.4190	if you did something out of order,	441.5935
358		441.9005	you got c- <laugh>	442.5010
360		442.8414	you got corrected from them and when you got home from your mother.	445.5073
362		446.1387	But it- it was more activities then.	447.5635
363	DCB_int_01	448.4443	Like what?	448.8963
364	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	449.6054	Um,	450.1226
366		450.4296	involved in	451.1736
368		451.3471	interaction [with other individuals yeah, where as though] now, you got your phone,	454.7014

376		458.2090	We didn't have that.	458.8129
378		459.0231	So we had to make up stuff to do.	460.3124
380		461.1885	[Sit on a- um], somebody's porch playing that's my car.	464.1856
381	DCB_int_01	461.1885	[<laugh>]	462.1139
382		464.4425	<laugh>	465.1332
383	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	465.7471	It- when you decide to be bad, you w- I remember one time I did get in trouble.	469.3306
385		470.1989	It was like a wooded area we went up, it was like on a hill.	472.6180
387		472.7047	We rolled evr- <sigh>	473.7190
389		474.2996	We used to roll tires down the hill into the street.	476.1122
391		477.2833	I know it was- I know it was wrong.	478.4712
393		478.6980	But still. [<laugh>]	480.0660
394	DCB_int_01	479.8125	[So you] would sit on the hill,	481.3706
395	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	481.6184	/Yup./	481.8917
396	DCB_int_01	481.8686	wait til a [car come], and roll a tire into the street?	483.7686
397	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	482.4592	[<clears throat>]	482.7562
398		483.7805	Yup, roll a tire down the hill into the street.	485.3153
399	DCB_int_01	486.1461	So the car would hit the t- so you would try not to hit- you try to dodge the car? What- what was the objective?	491.3687
401		491.8792	How do you [win?]	492.6552
402	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	492.4364	[Uh], the objective was to see if the car could stop /to/ hit on brakes before the, uh, the [tire came from- (laughing)]	498.1428
403	DCB_int_01	496.4680	[<laugh>]	498.6128
404	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	499.5617	I mean, I know I was wrong.	500.5927
406		500.7161	I know I was wrong. Stuff like that.	502.0941
408		502.8348	Uh, throwing snowballs at the bus	504.5332
410		505.4315	when it droves past, I mean.	506.6027
411	DCB_int_01	508.0441	You were mischievous. [So not so] much bad just you like to cause mischief.	512.1155
412	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	509.1752	[Uh.]	509.6056
414		512.1155	<clears throat>	512.4358
415		512.6827	Um, yeah but the [funny thing is]	514.6213
416	DCB_int_01	513.9206	[But you were bad,]	514.7446
417		514.8949	you were bad.	515.4688
418	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	515.7524	I never-	516.3830
420		516.5298	I never got a beating and I never got a punish.	518.5860
422		519.6904	Cause I watch what- like I said what my older brother and my older sister	522.5732
424		523.0804	all the trouble they got into, I was like, nah I'm'a do the exact opposite.	525.8239
425	DCB_int_01	526.3177	[So you the] third.	527.2152
426	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	526.3477	[I've never b-]	526.7815
427		527.6056	Yes I'm a middle child.	528.4564
429		529.1137	And I have a younger brother and a younger sister.	530.5593
431		530.8863	But I never got in trouble before.	532.0774
433		533.9659	[They used to] say I was the spoiled one because I never got in trouble but I did what I was supposed to in school	537.5402
434	DCB_int_01	534.0160	[/?/]	534.1999
435	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	538.3310	to the point where my mother was like, if I did something small,	540.6566
437		541.7919	to her it wasn't as bad.	542.9230
439		543.7104	Because I guess as a parent sometimes you weigh your options. I'm not gonna	546.2773
441		547.2639	punish him that much, he- he doesn't never get in trouble and he does well in school. Where as though my brother	551.1718
443		551.6823	skipped class every day,	552.7801
445		553.0303	got suspended every week.	553.9721
447		554.0688	So any little thing he done	555.2500
449		555.5903	did,	555.9476
451		556.3077	she was on top of 'em.	557.0863
452	DCB_int_01	557.6423	Right.	557.9316
453	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	558.0494	Literally.	558.5098
454	DCB_int_01	559.0003	Cause it's	559.3673
456		559.5316	two d- I mean, you doing all this versus [oh just] one little thing.	562.6447
457	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	561.4568	[<clears throat>]	561.8072
459		562.5913	Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, as a parent you gotta weigh your options.	565.4215
460	DCB_int_01	566.1556	[So]	566.7582
461	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	566.6227	[As a] disciplinarian. (laughing)	567.4272
462	DCB_int_01	567.5236	I can- I can just imagine little /RD-NAME-2/.	569.2719
464		569.8091	I'm still going on the h- hill, cause my tire just blew out the other day.	573.2700
465	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	573.4034	[<laugh>]	574.2042
466	DCB_int_01	573.5436	[Some- there was a-] there's something in the road and the car in the [other lane]	576.7567
467	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	576.3063	[Uh-huh.]	576.6609
468	DCB_int_01	577.2005	ran over it and it came into my lane and hit my tire so I had to buy a new t- It blew my whole tire out.	581.8158
469	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	581.9659	[Wow.]	582.2996
470	DCB_int_01	582.0727	[Like it] poked a- like the hole was this big.	583.9387
471		584.5593	And so, then I'm just like, oh my g- Cause I can just imagine this like- So right now,	588.4631
472	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	588.5899	It- [it wasn't- it wasn't-] it wasn't [me, /RD-NAME-2/.]	590.1923
473	DCB_int_01	588.7534	[you know, that's a sore-]	589.3814
475		589.9087	[that's a-]	590.1756
476		590.2623	that's a sore spot [right now.]	591.3850
477	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	591.0865	[I didn't] do it, it wasn't me.	592.0674
478	DCB_int_01	592.2643	The- it wasn't you? [But I- I just] think that was little /RD-NAME-2/, that was little /RD-NAME-2]	596.4725
479	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	592.9817	[That wasn't.]	593.5756
480	DCB_int_01	596.9830	reincarnated making my tire flat.	598.9883
481	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	599.2552	I mean, as a child, I mean, you- you didn't try /?/ I guess, you know, harm, you saw it as fun.	602.9230
482	DCB_int_01	600.0360	[<laugh>]	602.2787
483		602.9864	Yeah.	603.3077
484	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	603.3834	I didn't wanna harm nobody. But looking at it now I'm saying /I'm/ stupid, so. <laugh>	606.7766
485	DCB_int_01	606.7867	I mean, as the director of safety.	608.0822
486	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	608.0655	Ah [yes, it is,]	608.9297

490		611.0117	[You made it worse.]	611.7824
492		614.5793	[<laugh>]	615.2066
493	DCB_int_01	615.5903	Uh, thank you director of safety. [Uh], yeah, I used to roll tires and- and try to get people to slam on [breaks, um.]	621.3067

496		620.3791	[Yup, in t- in traffic.]	621.6670
497	DCB_int_01	622.1008	So did y'all live in an apartment, did you live in a house?	624.0369
498	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	623.9993	Town- it was a townhouse.	624.9302

508		632.7895	Yes.	633.3442
509	DCB_int_01	633.9740	Oh that's good.	634.6313
510	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	634.6346	The entire neighborhood. The whole block of Bruce. Because Bruce	637.4174
512		637.9554	ran into, um, Stanton Road,	639.9740
513	DCB_int_01	640.3677	Mm-hm.	640.6944
514	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	640.9183	and went all the way around to Robinson.	642.7801
516		643.7952	And like I said from, um, knowing your neighbors, it extended from Bruce all the way around to Stanton Road, all the way around to Ro- Everybody knew everybody.	651.1259
517	DCB_int_01	652.4378	Did y'all do anything together as like a neighbor- I mean, besides like, play did y'all like-	656.1255
519		656.3057	like have a community center or	658.0177

522	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	658.8315	[Yeah it was, um,]	659.9059
523	DCB_int_01	659.0617	[cookouts or something?]	660.1304
524	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	660.2696	at- um,	661.0503
526		661.3006	<ts>	661.3807
528		661.8786	directly across the street was the junior high school I went to, it's /RD-SCHOOL-5/.	665.4080
530		666.0360	And they had a rec center, /RD-SCHOOL-2/ rec that like all the surrounding neighborhoods went to. Stanton Road,	670.6447
532		671.1184	Bruce Place,	671.8658
534		672.5298	and, um,	673.4871
536		673.8286	like Congress Park, too,	674.9030
538		675.3134	which is like further down,	676.3644
540		676.8482	went to /RD-SCHOOL-2/ rec center cause every Friday	678.7776
542		678.8977	we skated,	679.4916
544		680.1289	or	680.6160
546		681.0898	the rec center have some type of activities there whether it was sports, or	684.3830
548		685.1813	anything, like, cheerleading competition	686.8229
550		687.4135	for girls. Everything was there cause it was big enough,	689.2815
552		689.6890	the rec center was to hold a lot of kids.	691.6509
553	DCB_int_01	692.0421	So now going back, cause you said there was gang activity like,	694.5979
555		694.7114	turf wars. So was that a big thing?	696.6232
556	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	696.9703	Yeah but usually I figure during that time I'm like, what,	699.1599
557	DCB_int_01	699.5569	[Ten.]	699.9173
558	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	699.7104	[ten.]	700.3677
559		702.1561	We didn't, I guess,	703.2647
561		704.1022	<clears throat> interact in that directly. It w- that was for like, the older guys like my brother at age like,	709.1412
563		709.6317	nine- from nineteen up.	711.0298
564	DCB_int_01	711.4702	Oh okay.	711.9155
565	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	712.0874	Yeah, us as kids, they saw us- they'll see us, especially the ones that, you know,	716.3761
567		717.5069	they knew it wasn't their lifestyle, we'll	719.8158
569		719.9626	be in their area, hey y'all need to go.	721.5516
571		722.0288	Go somewhere else.	722.7361
573		723.8639	It was like that then, whereas though now, I mean, I /would say that's-/	726.2696
575		726.5298	you walk past people that don't say nothing to you or don't really care.	728.8496
577		729.6103	Whereas though back then the older guys, they'll see us, the ones- the guys-	732.6833
579		732.8276	the younger guys, you know, that- they know we into sports	735.1065
581		735.6070	and we don't deal in that type of activity.	737.2052
583		737.7090	They used to tell us, and I've been told that as well,	739.6584
585		740.0555	we're walking in the area about to go play football, no, y'all can't come over here.	743.3420
587		744.0527	Go back that way.	744.7901
589		745.2280	We knew what it meant, so we- okay,	746.5726
591		746.7428	we leave,	747.2967
593		747.6504	go about our business.	748.4978
594	DCB_int_01	748.7648	Cause they know something about to pop [off.]	750.3830
595	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	750.1962	[Exactly], yeah.	751.0070
596		751.2480	Or we shouldn't be in that area at the time.	752.7995
597	DCB_int_01	753.9607	Oh wow. So everybody kind of looked out for everybody.	756.3029
598	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	756.3029	Exactly, yeah.	757.1337
599		757.2313	In all the neighborhoods. Cause like I said, everybody knew-	759.3701
601		759.6137	I mean, the neighborhoods were that close where	761.4688
603		762.0026	I can walk	762.6433
605		762.9144	across the s- like the, um, football field,	764.8896
607		765.4935	and I'm at, um, what's that, it's called Robinson Street.	768.2028
609		769.0612	Um,	769.5183
611		770.4392	and it's been instances where Bruce Street and Robinson Street, somebody from that area, from- somebody from my area	775.7610
613		776.6861	was- um, had conflict at the time.	778.2643
615		779.0551	And it's like, if you walk over there, it's like a five minute walk.	781.2005
617		781.8119	That's how close it was.	782.6894
618	DCB_int_01	783.1932	Mm.	783.4602
619	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	783.5736	Cause everybody was into- And some are like that now,	786.0660
621		786.6199	I guess claiming the street that you're from, which I never really understood and saw the point of it, but.	790.7281
623		790.8615	Cause it's not your street, [so. <laugh>]	792.1361
624	DCB_int_01	791.6023	[<laugh>]	792.6499
625	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	793.0804	But they were into that then.	793.8745
626	DCB_int_01	794.1622	Right.	794.4992
627	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	794.7428	So.	795.0331
628	DCB_int_01	795.6003	So tell me about school.	796.9249
630		797.1118	<clears throat> Cause-	797.8825
632		798.1828	Elementary school, let's start there, where'd you go to elementary school?	800.5059
633	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	800.4525	I-	800.5426
634		800.6260	elementary I went to Malcolm X.	802.0405
635	DCB_int_01	802.2943	Okay.	802.6280
636	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	802.7648	I went to Malcolm X, um,	804.2662
638		804.7600	<ts>	804.8468
640		805.8419	Left there and went to Johnson	807.4902
642		807.9039	which was-	808.6380
644		808.9183	if I walked to school, it took two minutes.	810.6032
646		810.7609	So I had no excuse for being late.	812.3257
647	DCB_int_01	813.1999	<laugh>	813.7266
648	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	814.0040	Um, I mean, the most fun I ever had	816.0627
650		816.3230	was in junior high school, I mean because	818.3758
652		820.7014	in elementary school I was kind of quiet, laid back.	823.1137
654		824.0288	All I did was draw.	824.8863
656		826.0274	I still draw sometimes, but	827.4741
658		827.6423	that's all I did in the elementary school my mother used to tell me, was draw. In the house,	830.4525
660		830.8729	if I'm not playing sports, I'm drawing somewhere.	832.6780
662		833.4388	But junior high school,	834.4631
664		834.7000	you know, the older you get,	835.6943
666		836.0855	the more you observe,	836.9997
668		837.9340	uh,	838.6346
670		838.8682	the more you take a liking to girls.	840.6266
672		840.9177	[So], (laughing)	841.4015
673	DCB_int_01	841.0612	[<laugh>]	841.9887
674	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	841.9620	that little shell you in, you	843.2900
675		843.4869	quickly come out of it.	844.3869
677		845.3520	Um,	845.8692
679		847.2605	and I- and I think that's when I had the best teachers, I mean, cause	849.6470
681		850.8715	back then, majority of teachers were nowhere near your age.	853.3214
683		854.1756	Way older.	855.0164
685		855.2633	Cause if you figure you in junior high school you like, what,	857.4254
687		858.4464	fifteen,	859.1838
689		859.5750	fourteen, something like that?	860.5960
691		860.8362	Teachers was in their fifties and sixties.	862.4445
692	DCB_int_01	863.0117	Oh wow.	863.6356
693	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	863.7324	Yeah, teachers were older and experienced.	865.8878
695		866.8229	And it was more- um,	868.4545
697		870.0827	more interaction with the kids there and in elementary school. You know, they used to w- they had the, um,	874.2309
699		874.6413	the green light to discipline a student.	875.9226
700	DCB_int_01	876.0460	Mm-hm.	876.4194
701	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	876.8443	[Whereas though n-]	877.3856
702	DCB_int_01	876.8943	[Paddle.]	877.2647
703	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	877.5149	Yeah,	877.8052
705		877.9387	/praddle/, I got it on my hand a couple times.	879.7972
707		880.8115	Um, whereas though now, it's the exact opposite, but.	883.3348
709		884.1923	Junior high school I think was my best years. And from there, I went to	887.2386
711		887.6923	/RD-SCHOOL-2/. I was supposed to go to /RD-SCHOOL-2/.	889.5775
713		890.4792	But,	890.7862
715		891.5936	I mean, because of the, um,	892.8048
717		893.5422	what is that called, like the boundary rules? Because I could actually walk to /RD-SCHOOL-2/.	896.4525
719		896.8930	But I wanted to go to /RD-SCHOOL-2/ because I heard it was a better school.	899.6656
721		900.1828	And at the time, my grades let me go there. Cause I wasn't supposed to go there.	903.0665
723		903.2800	But because of my grades they let me go.	904.8148
725		905.0817	And I wanted to play football there.	906.2462
726	DCB_int_01	906.8568	They had a better football team?	907.8544
727	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	908.5693	Uh, I thought they did.	909.7505
729		910.4545	But <laugh>	911.1919
730	DCB_int_01	911.3654	<laugh>	911.9392
731	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	912.4064	found out very quickly the exact opposite when I got there.	914.7862
733		915.0598	But I stayed though.	915.7447
735		915.8873	They had a- we had a better basketball team though.	917.4037
736	DCB_int_01	917.7357	Did you play basketball too?	918.5832
737	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	918.5899	Yeah.	918.7867
739		918.9636	Football and basketball.	919.7844
740	DCB_int_01	920.5493	Okay so you had to give up one for the other.	922.1809
741	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	922.1108	<ts>	922.1842
742		922.3410	Yeah.	922.5944
743	DCB_int_01	923.0217	So tell me about-	923.7991
745		923.9726	<clears throat>	924.2819
747		924.8568	tell me about your most fun time in school?	927.8572
748	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	928.7548	Um,	929.3520
750		931.1204	m- m- just like at home I was a class clown in school.	933.4702
751	DCB_int_01	933.8639	I can believe it.	934.6747
752	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	934.9516	But	935.3090
754		935.8825	it was to the point where I never disre- I did my work	938.2790
756		938.7161	all the time. And I think that's why	940.2209
758		940.6380	a lot of teachers let- let me get away with a lot of stuff because-	943.2238
760		943.9420	And half the time I was making them laugh too so they couldn't get- put me out of class.	947.0384
762		947.1518	I was never disrespectful though.	948.3096
764		949.3973	But, um,	950.2023
766		951.2066	I joked a lot in class.	952.4378
768		952.9216	a whole lot in class.	953.9669
770		954.7867	I never got put out but I was one of the ones, you- you joking with me,	957.4961
772		958.0140	my work's done, your's not.	959.2719
774		959.5422	But you gonna get in trouble, I'm not.	960.7000
776		962.1222	And it was always like that.	963.1699
778		964.0107	And I think	964.4611
780		964.6413	I had so much fun	965.6656
782		966.4965	in junior high school and high school because-	968.4859
784		969.4168	And when I went to, um, /RD-SCHOOL-2/,	970.8148
786		971.9659	and I think that's another reason why my mother really wanted me to go there,	974.6594
788		975.1866	I didn't know nobody there.	976.1842
789	DCB_int_01	976.8248	Mm.	977.0684
790	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	977.1885	Because everybody I knew from junior high school	979.5141
792		980.3691	and everybody in my neighborhood	981.8539
794		982.2343	went to /RD-SCHOOL-2/	982.9142
796		983.1385	because it was closer.	983.9860
798		984.7967	/RD-SCHOOL-2/ had to catch a bus to get to. It w- wasn't that far, but still.	987.8172
800		988.9850	I didn't r- I didn't- when at that- out of that entire school I only knew like two people when I first got there.	992.5761
801	DCB_int_01	993.6203	At /RD-SCHOOL-2/.	994.1283
802	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	994.1642	At /RD-SCHOOL-2/.	994.6413
804		994.9316	Didn't know nobody.	995.7190
806		996.2963	And she thought it was better for me, I think it was too, I mean, [because]	998.9430
807	DCB_int_01	998.4926	[Mm-hm.]	998.9597
808	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	999.3901	I don't think I was the type to follow behind anybody, but she just wanted to make sure that I didn't	1003.3640
810		1003.6050	follow that route.	1004.1923
811	DCB_int_01	1004.7962	Right.	1005.0722
812	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1005.1495	[Because it was nobody] to follow behind because	1006.9149
813	DCB_int_01	1005.1699	[/Nah-/]	1005.6737
814	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1007.2085	[you don't-]	1007.4819
815	DCB_int_01	1007.2286	[You don't know nobody.]	1007.8058
816	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1007.6023	[you don't] know nobody, nah.	1008.5142
817		1009.1905	So, I mean, I- I- I loved- I loved high school though.	1011.2745
819		1012.0608	I- um,	1012.6346
821		1015.0703	my first year I didn't play any sports,	1016.9096
823		1017.6203	cause I was kind of hesitant.	1018.6780
825		1018.8649	Because, I mean, I've-	1019.5656
827		1020.7119	Plus you know, now I'm	1021.4240
829		1021.6918	kind of tall. I was tall for my age.	1023.3467
830	DCB_int_01	1023.7271	[Mm-hm.]	1024.0908
831	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1023.8172	[So going] there,	1024.6212
832		1024.9616	I'm tall,	1025.5989
834		1026.1928	guys in the twelfth grade, some of 'em,	1027.8553
836		1028.2690	my- my height.	1029.1899
838		1029.8906	They looking at me like, /?/	1030.8782
840		1031.6923	when you- when- when you get here?	1032.8768
842		1033.3673	But I was like, man I'm in the, um, tenth grade.	1035.1932
844		1035.9907	You are?	1036.3811
846		1036.8148	Why you not playing sports? Oh, I didn't want to.	1038.6032
848		1039.6242	So I didn't play until my second year.	1040.9297
849	DCB_int_01	1042.6380	And then	1043.3553
851		1044.2496	were you on varsity?	1044.9903
852	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1045.5275	Uh, second year yeah I was.	1046.7662
854		1047.1365	Varsity basketball, football though, the football team was I felt-	1050.2362
856		1051.3139	um, it was a couple of players that was there	1053.2466
858		1053.6637	last year,	1054.2876
860		1054.9316	the year before, that should've graduated.	1056.2544
862		1056.5699	So,	1056.8868
864		1057.8453	stayed on the team.	1058.6527
866		1059.8105	So,	1060.2242
868		1060.5179	I played m- majority, um,	1062.2729
870		1062.8234	my last two years basketball. I didn't play that much football. I should've but I didn't.	1066.0574
871	DCB_int_01	1067.4454	So how did- Okay, so	1068.8748
873		1069.1746	tell me about playing basketball, cause I'm'a ask you about basketball in a minute.	1072.3977
874	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1072.9416	Um,	1073.6289
876		1074.2395	<ts> I loved it, man.	1075.0879
878		1075.8353	I really really loved it. Um, cause I think my-	1077.9273
880		1079.1585	when I was in the tenth-	1080.0518
882		1080.1795	One person I did know there, and I knew him from when I was in junior high school cause he was older.	1084.2476
884		1085.2085	I don't know if you ever heard of him but his name /RD-NAME-4/.	1086.9602
885	DCB_int_01	1087.4349	Mm-mm.	1087.7085
886	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1087.8920	He went to Georgetown,	1088.7929
888		1089.0931	played for John Thompson, he- he was good. But it- my first year [there-]	1091.8367
889	DCB_int_01	1091.6089	[The daddy.]	1092.0861

892	DCB_int_01	1095.0431	[Not-]	1095.2566
893		1095.5836	not the son. [/???/]	1096.8328
894	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1096.1508	[No he played for the] father [yeah, he played for the dad- yes.]	1098.5131
895	DCB_int_01	1097.1818	[This the eightie- oh, I'm-] we're in the nineties. [Yeah, the] daddy, [mm-hm.]	1100.1656
896	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1099.2505	[Yeah.]	1099.5475
898		1099.8820	[He played] for the daddy.	1100.7328
899		1101.4402	Uh, cause my first year there	1102.7448
901		1103.0350	was his last year.	1103.8959
903		1104.3263	He was like real	1105.1538
905		1105.3273	like-	1105.5475
906	DCB_int_01	1105.9020	Mm-hm.	1106.2657
907	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1106.9997	real hyped up player,	1107.9807
909		1108.7347	from a, um, area standpoint. Everybody was supporting him and was behind him.	1111.6542
911		1112.4091	And he knew- remembered me from playing	1114.2276
913		1115.5055	in junior high school.	1116.4364
915		1116.5532	And when he saw me, he was like, man why you ain't try out for the team?	1118.7094
917		1119.2366	Was like, I ain't-	1119.7037
919		1119.9073	nah, I ain't want to, I'm'a wait the next year.	1121.5055
921		1122.8401	But I love basketball, I still love basketball.	1124.8062
923		1125.4735	I still play basketball.	1126.5546
925		1127.1051	And I think the coach that I had there	1128.6399
927		1129.9153	<clears throat> we didn't really s-	1131.2900
929		1131.4902	I guess	1132.0174
931		1133.4187	see eye to eye on certain things because he wanted me to play a position I didn't wanna play.	1136.8763
932	DCB_int_01	1137.3634	What position?	1137.8606
933	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1137.8239	Center.	1138.2076
934	DCB_int_01	1138.7881	I was gonna ask were you a center.	1139.8959
935	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1139.9192	Yeah.	1140.1595
936	DCB_int_01	1140.1161	What'd you wanna play, power forward?	1141.1679
937	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1141.3047	Uh, [yes.]	1141.8914
938	DCB_int_01	1141.6150	[Or small] forward?	1142.2417
939	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1143.0097	Uh, power forward, small four.	1144.5194
941		1144.8248	I mean, because [of cour-]	1145.7702
942	DCB_int_01	1145.3662	[So four] or five.	1146.2088
943	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1146.4472	[Yeah.]	1146.7006
944	DCB_int_01	1146.6040	[You just] didn't wanna play three.	1147.4457
945	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1147.4682	No I did not.	1148.0855
947		1148.7770	Because	1149.3943
949		1149.8047	of course now,	1150.5153
951		1151.4830	the height I'm at now, if I was going to the NBA I'm considered short.	1154.0200
953		1154.5868	Six four,	1155.1015
955		1155.3509	this is not that tall [in the NBA.]	1156.6154
956	DCB_int_01	1156.1416	[You point] guard.	1156.9758
957	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1157.5230	[Pretty much.]	1158.1350
958	DCB_int_01	1157.6898	[<laugh>]	1158.0568
959	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1158.3638	So [imagine me-]	1159.3481
960	DCB_int_01	1158.5573	[<laugh>]	1159.4382
961	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1159.4457	I mean, I- I knew I was kind of tall for, uh, high school.	1161.9749
963		1162.2384	I was like, man I didn't wanna play center.	1163.5063
965		1164.4839	I didn't because	1165.4349
967		1166.5801	center don't have the ball that much.	1168.0682
969		1169.1226	You get the ball occasionally when you in the post, I mean, but	1171.4749
971		1171.7460	I didn't wanna play it. But now,	1173.2241
973		1173.6712	looking at it,	1174.2618
975		1174.8290	I shoulda want to play it more because me playing center	1177.2836
977		1178.4734	the average guy that was checking me was bigger and slower.	1180.7456
978	DCB_int_01	1181.2394	Mm-hm.	1181.6474
979	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1181.6998	He saw that as advantage,	1182.9577
981		1183.1346	I saw it as me not getting the ball all the time.	1184.8437
982	DCB_int_01	1185.0072	Right.	1185.3642
984		1185.7646	[And he] saw it as making you-	1186.9991
985	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1185.7713	[So-]	1186.0073
986	DCB_int_01	1187.1493	giving you [opportunities], yup.	1188.7185
987	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1188.1970	[Yup.]	1188.4472
988		1188.7375	I- and at a young age, I didn't see it as that.	1190.5362
990		1190.8771	At all.	1191.2208
991	DCB_int_01	1191.8447	What's your favorite college team?	1192.8607
992	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1193.3295	<ts>	1193.3862

995	DCB_int_01	1195.7985	Really?	1196.2479

999	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1199.7599	[Yeah.]	1200.0068
1000		1200.4072	That's all sports, I don't-	1201.8219
1002		1202.3265	I've never liked another team that's outside of the area.	1204.5254
1003	DCB_int_01	1204.7189	So you're a Wizards fan?	1205.7789
1004	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1205.8934	Definitely.	1206.3307
1006		1206.6708	Without a doubt a Wizards fan.	1207.6287
1007	DCB_int_01	1207.7126	So what do you think about the season?	1208.7236
1009		1209.2942	W- what- think- w- what- what you think gonna happen this-	1211.1960
1011		1211.8400	Jodie Meeks?	1212.8306
1012	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1213.0979	Yeah, I think they gonna, [um-]	1214.5693
1013	DCB_int_01	1214.3566	[He was]	1214.7436
1014		1215.0072	good. I went to the	1215.8647
1016		1215.9748	preseason game the other day, he was real good.	1217.4029
1017	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1217.6698	Oh you did?	1218.1469
1019		1218.2737	[<sigh> I'm-] /I haven't ?/ I need to find when is the next [one.]	1220.7395

1028		1226.9171	And the tickets aren't that bad, I think I'm'a go Sunday, cause I- I gotta [write.]	1230.4100
1029	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1230.1603	[So they] play Cleveland Sunday?	1231.3581
1030	DCB_int_01	1231.8052	Preseason.	1232.4439
1031	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1233.2441	I gotta write that down, I'm going to that game now.	1234.9391
1032	DCB_int_01	1234.8991	Go to StubHub, [Ticketmaster.]	1236.9744
1033	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1236.4339	[I usually go to StubHub], yeah.	1237.5783
1034	DCB_int_01	1237.5783	/??/	1237.8319
1036		1238.1564	Cheap.	1238.4934
1038		1238.6435	I paid	1239.2975
1040		1239.6478	six bucks	1240.5487
1042		1240.7122	for tickets. [Um],	1242.2437
1043	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1241.6631	[Mm-hm.]	1242.0498
1044	DCB_int_01	1242.5573	It was a Chinese team on Monday.	1244.2156
1045	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1244.2098	Yeah I- I heard, I heard, [yeah.]	1245.3442
1046	DCB_int_01	1245.1140	[But they] were g- Jodie Meeks showed	1247.0425
1047		1247.3428	[out.]	1248.0035
1048	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1247.8667	[Really?]	1248.2337
1049	DCB_int_01	1248.9711	I mean.	1249.5149
1050	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1249.6225	/?/ they beat 'em by like what, thirty or something like [that?]	1251.5911
1051	DCB_int_01	1251.4410	[Yeah], it was kind of- I mean, we coulda [left- we coulda-]	1253.4753
1052	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1252.6855	[<laugh>]	1254.2704
1053	DCB_int_01	1254.0402	[<laugh>]	1254.8855
1054		1255.5717	we coulda left in third quarter.	1256.9805
1056		1257.1607	But what do you think about-	1257.9087
1058		1258.1316	think about the outlook of the season? Think how- how they- h- for you how they end the season and then what you think is gonna happen for this season.	1263.3042
1059	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1263.2942	I think the way they ended the seas- season last year a lot of- a lot of people are	1266.8910
1060		1267.0612	I guess on the edge of they seats because they coulda easily won	1269.9982
1062		1270.4586	and- and went on to the next series and played, um,	1272.6441
1064		1273.5316	Cleveland.	1273.9689
1066		1274.7369	This year,	1275.3776
1068		1276.3919	I still s-	1276.9191
1070		1277.1159	I still think they have the same chance. But,	1278.7879
1072		1279.5349	you know, Cleveland has restocked,	1280.9038
1074		1281.0573	Boston.	1281.8547
1076		1282.2618	I mean, all the other teams	1283.4663
1078		1284.1670	they lost a lot of good players but they gained a lot of good players as well.	1286.8704
1080		1287.4176	I- I think they chances are good. I mean, I was real disappointed last year, though,	1290.2591
1082		1290.7108	losing to Boston	1291.4794
1084		1291.6259	in Boston /where-/	1292.4633
1085	DCB_int_01	1292.5067	Game seven?	1293.1507
1086	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1293.5177	Yes.	1293.8614
1087	DCB_int_01	1293.8380	Hm.	1294.1350
1088	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1294.2017	Hurts even more	1295.0292
1090		1295.8333	[because it was-]	1296.3204
1091	DCB_int_01	1295.9467	[But game] six was [good.]	1297.6670
1092	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1297.5183	[Yes] it was. I was [at that game too.]	1299.0940
1093	DCB_int_01	1298.4387	[John Wall.]	1299.4610
1094	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1299.6765	I was at that game.	1300.4773
1096		1301.3957	But, um,	1302.0797
1098		1302.5501	I think their chances are better this year. I mean, that's- it's good to see them making the playoffs every year, because growing up	1307.5283
1100		1307.6760	watching the Bullets,	1308.4801
1102		1309.5144	you pretty much was going to the arena to watch the other team.	1312.3064
1103	DCB_int_01	1312.5741	Mm-hm.	1312.9144
1105		1313.1847	Oh.	1313.4591
1106	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1314.7070	Because they wasn't that good.	1315.7046
1108		1317.0659	At all.	1317.4763
1109	DCB_int_01	1318.2638	No, but right- so, right when you were born though wasn't that Phil Chenier, wasn't that the year?	1323.4196
1110	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1323.4330	Yeah that's [when- well, you know, w- when I was-]	1325.0761
1111	DCB_int_01	1323.9301	[That was- but you were] like, three.	1325.6251
1112	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1325.6318	[Yeah so I didn't know nothing.]	1326.5744
1113	DCB_int_01	1325.8294	[So it- it didn't matter, yeah.]	1327.3472
1114	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1326.8604	[I'm talking about] the eighties.	1327.9849
1115	DCB_int_01	1328.4820	When they went just all the way [down hill.]	1330.0869
1116	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1329.5831	[Yeah.]	1329.8867
1117		1330.4906	At the Capital Center, yeah I remember that.	1331.9963
1119		1332.6002	Eighties and early nineties.	1333.7280
1120	DCB_int_01	1334.4687	/inaudible/	1335.2594
1121	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1335.2695	Every year,	1335.7366
1123		1336.0235	so.	1336.2738
1124	DCB_int_01	1337.1446	But now there's hope.	1338.0321
1126		1338.2699	Okay so talk about Bo- but think about Boston, they've re-tooled.	1341.3429
1128		1341.4596	I'm not sure Kyrie Irving is a better choice than Isaiah Thomas.	1344.9839
1130		1345.2408	Only because chemistry matters,	1346.6255
1132		1346.9024	then you got Gordon Hayward coming [and then they] lost some of their defensive prowess.	1350.2022
1133	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1348.1470	[Mm-hm.]	1348.4640
1134	DCB_int_01	1350.5301	I don't know.	1351.0673
1135	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1351.4377	I- I don't- I don't think Boston is gonna be as good everybody think they are, mainly because	1354.9591
1137		1356.4463	Kyrie is a player that ha- has the w- got to have the ball, that's why he left.	1360.0101
1139		1360.6742	He want the ball in his hands all the time.	1362.2465
1141		1362.7637	And the type of offense that they s- the coach run, Stevens run,	1365.3929
1143		1366.3872	everybody gets the ball.	1367.3048
1145		1367.5659	And then they lost two players,	1368.7804
1147		1369.7146	two good defensive players	1371.0693
1148	DCB_int_01	1371.1627	Mm-hm.	1371.7466
1149	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1371.9234	that went to other teams, so the chemistry gonna be off, I think.	1374.2457
1150	DCB_int_01	1374.7537	Yup.	1375.0173
1151	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1375.2075	That's why I think it's gonna be a- better for the Wizards right now cause they have the same core players.	1378.8276
1153		1379.3615	They added a couple players, so	1380.6703
1155		1381.0106	they should be better.	1381.7179
1156	DCB_int_01	1382.6589	What about Cleveland, what you think?	1383.6999
1157	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1383.8867	I- man, you know, <sigh>	1384.9711
1159		1385.6251	I don't like LeBron but as long as he's playing, he's-	1387.9282
1161		1388.3552	he has to be a favorite.	1389.3295
1163		1389.9668	I mean, that's how good he is. And because	1391.2414
1165		1391.7060	they lost	1392.4801
1167		1393.2508	Kyrie but they gained	1394.5221
1169		1395.1627	a lot too.	1395.8033
1171		1396.2971	Derrick Rose,	1397.1613
1173		1398.3166	he's gonna [help.]	1398.9605
1174	DCB_int_01	1398.7136	[Sh-] show me what Derrick Rose did in New York	1401.0203
1175		1401.4963	to tell me-	1402.2830
1177		1402.6408	to make me feel better about him being in Cleveland.	1404.8438
1178	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1405.0373	Uh, you know what the biggest difference is gonna be?	1406.9825
1180		1407.4963	He got somebody that's unselfish that will give him the ball.	1410.1556
1181	DCB_int_01	1410.4067	Who?	1410.6787
1182	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1411.1908	LeBron.	1411.6145
1184		1413.0926	Whereas though	1413.8133
1186		1414.0860	/???/ New York, everybody, their whole offense was based off one on one playing, one on one, um, when they got the ball.	1419.2861
1188		1419.4663	Carmelo,	1420.0102
1190		1421.5951	he has that /unintelligible/ (laughing)	1422.6436
1192		1423.0573	He's a ball hog.	1423.7413
1194		1423.8848	He's good, but he's a ball hog.	1425.0726
1196		1425.6331	Whereas though in Cleveland, I mean, they got a lot of players. Everybody just gonna get their touches.	1428.7737
1198		1429.3009	That's why Kyrie- I mean, guess why Kyrie left, cause he wants to be the person	1432.5474
1200		1433.3715	who has the ball in his hands at all times.	1435.1474
1201	DCB_int_01	1437.2428	Cleveland looks good on paper, right? You got Derrick Rose, you got LeBron, you got	1441.2175
1203		1441.4877	D Wade.	1442.1584
1204	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1442.2651	Isaiah Thomas.	1443.0459
1205	DCB_int_01	1444.7042	But when you put all that-	1445.8294
1207		1446.1164	but now	1446.6769
1209		1446.8838	to me sometimes [having too] much superstar	1449.1226
1210	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1447.7179	[<clears throat>]	1448.1517
1211		1449.2194	Mm-hm.	1449.5330
1212	DCB_int_01	1449.4897	power,	1450.0169
1213		1450.7909	that's too many-	1451.4049
1215		1451.5892	that's too many cooks in the kitchen.	1453.2575
1216	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1453.3776	Uh, y- know what, you're absolutely right because it g- it might get to a point your team has no identity at all.	1458.1523
1218		1458.7770	Prime example when the Lakers had Karl Malone,	1461.0225
1220		1461.2628	Gary Payton, and all- Kobe and Shaq.	1463.6459
1222		1464.0897	They got swept by the Pistons in the playoffs.	1465.8681
1223	DCB_int_01	1465.8748	Because	1466.2284
1225		1466.5154	everybody wanted to be the guy.	1468.2204
1226	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1468.2104	Yup,	1468.4773
1227		1468.5874	and it don't work all the time.	1469.6151
1228	DCB_int_01	1469.7218	Mm-mm.	1470.2590
1230		1470.5268	That's why they had that whole- Think about when John Wall and Bradley Beal kind of had they little	1473.7533
1232		1474.0369	tiff, [right?]	1474.6375
1233	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1474.5073	[Yeah.]	1474.7843
1234	DCB_int_01	1475.1179	But then when Bradley Beal conceded and said, this is John Wall's team,	1478.0116
1235	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1478.0316	Mm-hm.	1478.3753
1236	DCB_int_01	1478.3452	but we the- we're the back court,	1479.9692
1237		1480.9144	think about where they went after that.	1483.3176
1239		1484.3686	Cleveland,	1485.0125
1241		1485.3195	they all over the place, [it's a mess.]	1487.3448
1242	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1486.4306	[Yes they are.]	1487.0919
1243		1487.7252	I don't- I-	1488.0522
1245		1488.4500	I think it might- I mean, just cause LeBron on the team I think it might work, but	1491.4763
1247		1491.6732	can the Wizards beat 'em?	1492.5207
1249		1492.8477	I think so.	1493.4991
1251		1494.1631	I hope so.	1494.6938
1252	DCB_int_01	1494.7270	I think they're vulnerable, I think they're vulnerable more than they've been in the last couple of [years.]	1498.9578
1253	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1498.4673	[They coulda beat] 'em last year I think.	1499.7886
1254	DCB_int_01	1499.8753	I think so too.	1500.5368
1255	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1500.6603	Better match up than Boston- (laughing) [Boston was.]	1502.5955
1256	DCB_int_01	1502.1083	[That February] game was [crazy.]	1505.0912
1257	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1504.4640	[Yes it was], yeah.	1505.5413
1258	DCB_int_01	1505.8286	Were you there?	1506.3533
1259	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1506.3533	Mm, nah I didn't go to that game, I wish I was though.	1508.4754
1260	DCB_int_01	1508.6555	<ts> I had a	1509.1994
1262		1509.4063	dinner that night so I couldn't go but we watched, it was crazy.	1513.3433
1263	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1513.5978	And then they-	1514.1884
1265		1514.2818	couple of months- like a month later they went to Cleveland,	1516.2704
1267		1516.4206	b- beat the brakes off /of 'em/.	1517.7212
1268	DCB_int_01	1518.6269	[Yup.]	1518.9038
1269	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1518.7003	[So.]	1519.0643
1270	DCB_int_01	1519.5878	What about the Redskins?	1520.8557
1272		1521.2828	Tell me-	1521.6331
1274		1521.8267	talk about- talk about football. Cause football is [your heart, it seems.]	1525.2341
1275	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1523.9596	<clears throat> Y- yeah, it is], it is.	1526.0142
1276		1526.6122	I- um,	1527.2461
1278		1529.1421	I mean, they're better this year, especially de- on the defensive side, cause the def- defense has been terrible	1533.7466
1280		1534.6041	for the last	1535.1746
1282		1535.4090	what, decade probably.	1536.6135
1283	DCB_int_01	1536.5902	<laugh>	1537.6312
1284	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1537.5878	But I think-	1538.3798
1285		1539.6231	I think they have a good chance this year because it's no like, super team this year.	1542.6073
1287		1543.2909	Everybody's losing to everybody.	1544.6288
1289		1545.2928	But I think the games that's coming up they gotta take advantage of	1548.1598
1291		1548.9472	and win.	1549.4143
1293		1549.7847	Cause they play what, the forty-niners?	1551.1780
1295		1552.2271	Game like that they should be dominate- And it's good that they have a bye this week	1555.0440
1297		1555.5611	all the injuries they got.	1556.6422
1299		1557.9501	<clears throat> I think they should make the playoffs. Do I think they gonna go far	1560.6954
1301		1560.7755	with the team they got?	1561.5578
1303		1561.8114	I don't know yet.	1562.3567
1305		1563.5431	Cause them- it's the same thing with them.	1565.3217
1307		1565.4291	They don't have no identity	1566.4734
1309		1567.2842	at all.	1567.6808
1311		1567.9215	Especially offense.	1568.8424
1313		1569.4563	Don't know if they a passing team or running team.	1570.9478
1314	DCB_int_01	1572.5935	Mm.	1572.9972
1315	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1573.3342	They just do both good. None- neither one of 'em they do well, just	1576.3005
1317		1576.4806	average at both.	1577.1687
1318	DCB_int_01	1578.0221	Are you a season ticket holder?	1579.0006
1319	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1579.1674	No, I'm not.	1579.5974
1320	DCB_int_01	1581.1460	Hm.	1581.3829
1321	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1581.5998	I- I prefer to watch-	1582.6174

1325		1585.8014	the Redskin game when they played Oakland,	1587.3729
1327		1588.3538	like [two weeks] ago.	1589.1272

1329		1589.2647	Mm-hm.	1589.6551
1330	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1589.8328	I had a good time, but for football	1591.3342
1332		1592.2118	I prefer- I guess cause you get a better feel for the game by actually looking at it on TV.	1596.3491
1334		1596.5134	I prefer to watch football on TV.	1597.7780
1336		1598.4220	Basketball game, I gotta be there.	1599.9101

1358	DCB_int_01	1618.5741	but I'll go home and rewatch the game, [and I'm] like, oh my god that felt so different being there cause you see it from a totally [different angle.]	1625.1112

1366	DCB_int_01	1630.1870	I am a basket- I am a Wizards fan.	1632.3491
1367		1632.6603	After the Wizards I'm a Spurs fan because I was a Timmy fan.	1635.6069

1377		1642.9544	if it's Warriors and- if it's Warriors and Cavaliers I will go Warriors all day. I'm- cause I'm not a LeBron fan. I am- I'm a LeBron hater because I think LeBron is a- too much of a LeBron fan.	1651.7613
1379		1652.1117	I don't like people like [that.]	1653.1427
1380	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1652.8023	[Oh that's-] that's obvious, that's-	1654.0402

1391		1672.3972	And so when your team is the better- when your team is better,	1674.8638
1393		1675.6846	the individual performances will ps-	1677.4296
1395		1677.6165	will shine.	1678.2471
1397		1679.0712	That's why I don't like-	1679.7819

1572		1874.8386	that-	1875.2013
1574		1875.9272	It's- it's funny because (laughing)	1877.5584
1576		1878.9067	growing up- She's a little bit younger than me, like probably	1880.9262
1578		1881.1097	three years younger than me.	1881.8950
1580		1882.6078	But growing up,	1883.2585
1582		1884.3062	uh, her and like, a couple of my other sister friends probably used to like /me./	1887.1364
1584		1887.4000	Sister hated it.	1888.0840
1586		1889.7790	Sister hated it when they used to come over like, where your brother at?	1892.1947

1594		1902.2173	The first expression on your face like,	1903.9344
1596		1904.0912	ew, why- why you wanna, um, get involved with my brother and sister? But	1906.9115
1598		1907.4086	what happened was	1908.3529
1600		1909.6475	that a couple a years ago-	1910.8086
1602		1911.8805	cause her family and my family know each other.	1913.4954
1604		1914.5431	Um,	1915.1370
1606		1915.3338	her mom had a gathering	1916.5791
1608		1916.9562	at her house. And my sister went but I didn't know nothing about it.	1919.1202
1610		1919.8591	So,	1920.3562
1612		1921.8643	I think she hit me on f-	1922.8030
1614		1922.9496	on Facebook or	1924.1407
1616		1924.8514	she text me or something, asked what I was doing,	1926.5164
1618		1926.8967	to come past it.	1927.6308

1622		1929.6069	course we had fun,	1930.4844
1624		1930.8381	we exchanged numbers, we been talking every since.	1932.9044
1625	DCB_int_01	1934.3348	Hm.	1934.5950

1630		1939.2070	The wedding was nice.	1939.8684
1632		1940.0745	I didn't plan anything with it,	1941.5535
1634		1941.9238	neither did I wanna have anything to do with- (laughing) [<laugh>]	1944.1393
1635	DCB_int_01	1943.8457	[<laugh>]	1944.8734
1636	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1945.5707	I didn't wanna have anything to do with the planning,	1947.2452
1638		1947.8838	cause her sister is a- um,	1949.4420
1640		1950.3729	that's what she does on the side,	1951.5173
1642		1951.9010	like planning and events and stuff like that.	1953.6169
1643	DCB_int_01	1953.5768	Oh.	1953.8304
1644	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1954.1808	So she helped her.	1955.0950
1646		1956.0059	And like all the- um,	1957.5340
1648		1958.2047	<ts>	1958.3181
1650		1958.5058	the decorations,	1959.7303
1652		1960.1040	um,	1960.7613
1654		1963.2037	um,	1963.7876
1656		1963.8810	the tablecloths and everything,	1965.1557
1658		1965.4334	her and her sister pl- uh, picked everything.	1966.9649
1660		1967.5287	And decorated everything.	1968.5497
1662		1970.0078	I didn't take no part in the planning process. Neither did I want to. But it- it turned out really really nice though.	1973.9758
1663	DCB_int_01	1974.1327	How many people were there?	1974.9468
1664	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1976.0378	Um,	1977.5602
1666		1979.3886	maybe a h-	1980.0473
1668		1981.1970	close to a hundred.	1981.8944
1669	DCB_int_01	1982.2247	Oh that's a good size. [That's] a-	1983.6703
1670	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1983.3166	[Yeah.]	1983.5168
1671		1983.8137	Well I didn't- that's the number I didn't wanna go over.	1985.5121
1672	DCB_int_01	1985.6589	That's enough.	1986.4596
1673	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1986.4229	Yeah, it is.	1987.1570
1674	DCB_int_01	1987.4973	Cause you get past that and it's just too much.	1989.3091
1675	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1989.2832	Yeah, pretty much. I mean, cause you don't wanna get to a point where your- um,	1992.0025
1676		1993.4473	your wedding is about how many people you bring	1995.3499
1677	DCB_int_01	1995.6035	Mm-hm.	1996.0706
1678	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	1996.3943	to the wedding.	1996.9682
1680		1997.2351	Because that	1997.6822
1682		1998.3629	gets expensive	1999.0402
1683	DCB_int_01	1999.2337	Very much so.	1999.8431
1684	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2000.0579	So, no.	2000.6693
1685	DCB_int_01	2001.3866	Very much so.	2001.9639
1687		2002.0807	Do you have kids?	2002.8060
1688	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2003.0216	/Wes/, one.	2003.5821
1689	DCB_int_01	2004.3862	Girl or boy?	2004.8934
1690	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2005.0936	Girl, she's fifteen.	2006.5202
1692		2007.4200	Turns sixteen	2008.3709
1694		2008.6746	next year, in August.	2009.6388
1695	DCB_int_01	2010.2061	<ts>	2010.3162
1697		2011.4973	Does she have you wrapped around her little finger?	2012.9387
1698	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2012.9729	Um.	2013.7837
1699	DCB_int_01	2013.6806	Yeah, she does, that's- [that's a yes.]	2015.5177
1700	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2014.4810	[Yeah /thanks/ yeah], I'd rather hear somebody else say /unintelligible/ <laugh>	2017.2971
1701	DCB_int_01	2017.4906	That's a yes.	2018.2414
1702	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2018.1880	Yeah, she does,	2018.8720
1703		2018.9796	I'm not gonna lie.	2019.5942
1705		2020.4677	I love her to pieces though. Mainly because	2022.2394
1707		2023.1370	I know,	2023.6575
1709		2025.0230	um,	2025.6763
1711		2026.0473	society has changed.	2027.4887
1713		2028.2695	Like kids her age, uh,	2029.8434
1715		2031.2432	fifteen acting like eighteen, twenty-one, twenty-six, and- or older.	2035.4473
1717		2036.7152	That's why I'm thankful. And I make sure I talk to her	2039.2818
1719		2039.6188	every day or see her every day because	2041.8443
1721		2042.4082	I've never had any problems with her.	2043.7970
1723		2045.1417	Never.	2045.5124
1725		2045.6589	She's a daddy's girl.	2046.5497
1727		2047.5907	And I talked her to her at a early age as far as what I think	2049.9372
1729		2050.2508	is important	2050.9849
1731		2052.5330	in life	2053.1203
1733		2053.7209	in general.	2054.2075
1735		2054.5225	It's just stuck with her.	2055.3725
1737		2055.9906	She never got in trouble at school, she always get good grades in school.	2058.9134
1739		2059.6408	And then that's why I spoil her. I don't have no problem spoiling her though.	2061.5335
1740	DCB_int_01	2062.1541	Because she's doing what she's supposed to do.	2063.2952
1741	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2063.2618	Yeah, exactly, yeah.	2064.0545
1742		2064.8300	But I- I don't just give her stuff just to be giving her- I mean, I explain to her, you know,	2067.9766
1744		2069.0282	why I'm doing it. Not just-	2070.3729
1746		2070.5764	Cause I know she aks for a lot. But I- I- she- she know the difference between	2073.5635
1748		2074.4243	stuff that she wants and something that she needs.	2076.6577
1749	DCB_int_01	2077.0702	Right.	2077.3605
1751		2078.3857	Is she into boys yet?	2079.3433
1752	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2079.9547	<ts>	2080.0148
1754		2080.5019	Uh, no not yet but I know it's coming though.	2082.2161
1755	DCB_int_01	2082.6899	No not yet that you don't know of.	2084.2681
1757		2085.1197	Which is different. [She may-]	2086.3976
1758	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2085.8304	[You sounding] like my mother.	2087.1217
1759	DCB_int_01	2087.7323	I mean, I'm just being-	2088.5509
1760	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2088.5531	She- no, she told me the [exact same thing.]	2090.2280
1761	DCB_int_01	2089.3405	[Look, we work] around kids, [right?]	2091.4934
1762	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2091.0864	[Yeah], yeah.	2091.7870
1763	DCB_int_01	2092.1107	Um,	2093.0149
1765		2093.6355	and so we're the- we're the people that the kids go to when they don't go to their parents.	2098.5600
1766	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2099.8791	True.	2100.1724
1768		2100.5631	That's absolutely right.	2101.3538
1769	DCB_int_01	2101.5507	And so we know about all the kids [who like], you know, I really like this person, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.	2107.1270
1770	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2103.9706	[Mm-hm.]	2104.3409
1771	DCB_int_01	2107.6942	You did it	2108.3281
1773		2109.0597	when you were younger.	2110.1490
1774	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2110.2508	Hold on a sec.	2110.9122
1775	DCB_int_01	2110.8748	Uh-huh.	2111.2187
1776	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2111.2218	My /waitlist/ guy.	2112.0384
1777	DCB_int_01	2112.3529	Oh.	2112.5929
1779		2113.0802	Hey /RD-NAME-2/.	2113.8677
1780	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2114.0612	But, [um,]	2114.7385
1781	DCB_int_01	2114.5984	[You] did it.	2115.3091
1782	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2115.6736	Oh yeah, see, but this- this the thing though, /RD-NAME-2/.	2117.2852
1784		2117.7790	As a man, s- especially, y- your- your /atmosphere/ on life and the way you see life changes when you have a child.	2122.6145
1786		2122.8414	Especially when your child is a daughter, I mean, is a girl.	2124.8800
1788		2125.7476	it changes. I mean, because she knows,	2127.4467
1790		2128.6045	and I hate to say it,	2129.3586
1792		2129.7022	I hate every little boy.	2130.7956
1794		2131.2137	I don't like none of 'em.	2132.0078
1796		2134.0573	I know it sounds harsh /unintelligible/ (laughing)	2135.7957
1798		2136.9168	But I- seriously, I mean, I-	2138.0612
1800		2138.3348	mean, I know it's just me as a father talking, but I don't	2140.7546
1802		2141.0082	like mean it like- like, [directly, but.]	2142.7032
1803	DCB_int_01	2142.3495	[Right], but I [get it.]	2143.4940
1804	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2143.2271	[Cause I] know how I was as a, um, young man.	2145.6736
1805		2145.9706	They're worse now.	2146.8147
1806	DCB_int_01	2147.5488	Times twenty.	2148.4096
1807	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2148.5764	Yeah, and	2149.3171
1809		2149.5107	that's why I talk to my daughter all the time about what's important, I mean, what's gonna be there as she get older. And she don't need it now, I mean, it's- /it's just gonna-/ as long as you're living it's gonna be there.	2156.9529
1810	DCB_int_01	2158.2208	/unintelligible/ no need to [rush.]	2159.6032
1811	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2159.4587	[Nah.]	2159.9525
1812		2160.3629	I mean, but, um,	2161.2204
1814		2162.5483	She probably- I mean, I j-	2163.4634
1816		2163.7003	she probably has a interest in boys already I just don't know about it.	2165.7122
1817	DCB_int_01	2167.0936	[As long as you're] not ignorant to that fact.	2168.9796
1818	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2167.2437	[That's why-]	2167.5907
1819		2169.0296	Oh n- oh, no I'm not.	2170.0673
1820	DCB_int_01	2170.3509	[Okay.]	2170.6679
1821	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2170.5478	[I'm] not gonna lie I used to be.	2171.7278
1822	DCB_int_01	2172.6465	Cause you thought she was a perfect [angel.]	2174.0579
1823	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2173.7876	[Oh yeah.]	2174.2847
1824		2175.0663	Of course.	2175.5503
1825	DCB_int_01	2175.6202	Mm-hm.	2175.9375
1826	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2176.0506	But I wanted it- I don't wanna get- have it in her mind that-	2178.4363
1828		2178.9034	the hate that I have for little boys	2180.5016
1830		2181.0130	that she gotta,	2181.4850
1832		2181.6269	well I-	2181.9706
1834		2182.1207	I don't wanna tell him this.	2183.0783
1836		2183.6689	[I don't think] I should tell him because he might get mad or /I'm- I ain't/ gonna take it.	2186.0712
1837	DCB_int_01	2183.7122	[Yup.]	2183.9425
1838	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2186.4683	That's why	2187.1989
1840		2187.6269	<clears throat> I eased off that a little bit.	2189.4887
1842		2190.2895	And-	2190.6865
1844		2191.1103	and trying to get to the point where she's comfortable talking about anything, including boys.	2194.5077
1846		2194.8948	I might not wanna hear it,	2195.8023
1848		2196.9134	I mean, but hey.	2197.6975
1850		2198.0145	It comes with the territory, though.	2199.1297
1851	DCB_int_01	2199.2131	It does.	2199.9105
1853		2200.0406	And that's wonderful. Where-	2201.0583
1855		2201.2818	Does she wanna go to college?	2202.2245
1856	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2202.1794	Yes she does. Where, I don't know yet,	2203.7542
1857		2203.8610	but she does.	2204.4524
1859		2204.5725	Initially she does.	2205.4492
1861		2205.5568	I mean initially when I aksed her she wasn't really-	2207.8023
1863		2208.4363	Cause she in the tenth grade now.	2209.3905
1864	DCB_int_01	2209.6675	Mm-hm.	2210.0181
1865	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2210.4224	She wasn't really I guess	2211.7270
1867		2212.6979	that enthused about it cause I guess in her mind she was like, I'm-	2214.8800
1869		2215.0035	I'm only in ninth grade, why is he asking me about college?	2217.0982
1871		2218.3276	And I used to aks her all the time, now	2219.8369
1873		2221.3205	when I aksed her, she was like, I'm going but I just don't know where I'm gonna go yet.	2223.9702
1874	DCB_int_01	2224.2208	Right.	2224.5115
1875	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2224.5311	Whereas though like a year or two years ago, she was like, college, /unintelligible/	2227.2271
1877		2228.2180	Can I get through the eighth grade- <laugh> eighth grade first? Yeah, [so.]	2230.8623
1878	DCB_int_01	2230.6646	[I'm] just trying to get to eighth gra- I'm just trying to get to high school, Dad.	2233.5040
1879	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2233.6007	Yeah, so,	2234.3548
1881		2234.4616	I mean, if she-	2234.9621
1882	DCB_int_01	2234.9662	<clears throat>	2235.3299
1883	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2235.5001	she knows that I want her to go, I-	2236.7513
1885		2237.3786	I think she wants to go, too.	2238.3996
1886	DCB_int_01	2238.9601	Let's- so let's transition from family. How did you get to-	2242.6145
1888		2243.4120	[You're kind of in] this job, [right? So], in safety, and like, people just don't walk into, I'm gonna	2248.1507
1889	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2243.4220	[<clears throat>]	2244.0059
1891		2244.6365	[Mm-hm.]	2244.9391
1892	DCB_int_01	2248.3442	be in safety.	2249.1050
1893	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2249.2151	Yeah.	2249.4220
1894	DCB_int_01	2249.3886	How did you kind of get into this career path? Was it through college, or	2252.8086
1895		2253.3066	how did you get here?	2254.5745
1896	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2255.2618	Uh, /RD-NAME-2/ this was never initially on my career path	2258.1112
1898		2258.6418	leaving college and in high school.	2260.0473
1900		2260.8948	Never was.	2261.6088
1902		2262.0392	I mean, cause I could draw,	2263.1503
1904		2263.5574	really really good, and I wanted to be like a artist, engineer, or I be on TV playing sports.	2267.8324
1906		2269.5040	Safety- And the reason I- um,	2271.2490
1908		2271.8004	I got into it because when I was in school, I started doing security part time	2275.2938
1910		2276.4816	for /RD-WORK-5/.	2277.3358
1911	DCB_int_01	2277.9772	Mm-hm.	2278.3643
1912	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2278.3743	Um,	2278.9148
1914		2281.3438	initially, I mean, I- I di- I'm not gonna say I was a expert, but	2284.2809
1916		2285.2818	he- the guy I was working for thought I was. I mean, because I was making decisions on my own. That's w- how security p- pretty much is.	2291.1217
1918		2291.6355	They put you in a position where	2292.9168
1920		2294.4582	you can't make personal decisions	2296.0540
1922		2296.1674	because your	2296.7487
1924		2297.3419	personal decisions don't matter.	2298.7065
1926		2299.1770	Every decision you make, you gotta be, how would it benefit the organization I'm working for?	2302.4900
1927	DCB_int_01	2303.5921	Hm.	2303.9581
1928	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2304.7032	I mean, sometimes, you might not agree with it.	2306.9054
1930		2308.0640	But	2308.4277
1932		2309.1951	how you feel don't matter at the time because you gotta figure	2311.7042
1934		2313.5735	the decisions you make is gonna affect other people	2315.7923
1936		2316.1260	and the business.	2316.9434
1938		2317.4439	So whatever guidelines	2319.0655
1940		2319.4167	the organization has	2320.6207
1942		2321.0483	those what you gotta follow.	2322.0693
1944		2322.6832	So I started doing security there.	2324.0946
1946		2325.6694	Um,	2326.2184
1948		2326.3994	<clears throat>	2327.0580
1950		2327.6066	St-	2327.8298
1952		2327.9324	I'm not gonna lie, I started to like it	2329.3097
1954		2329.9532	a little bit.	2330.4630
1956		2330.9033	I mean, cause I- when I	2331.7388
1958		2332.0352	<clears throat> first started doing security, security was looked at the guy with the mean face	2335.6004
1960		2336.0287	standing in CVS telling everybody what to- <laugh> what to do and being mean [to people.]	2339.5675
1961	DCB_int_01	2339.1603	[<laugh>]	2340.0496
1962	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2340.2280	That quickly changed when I left there	2342.0587
1964		2342.5234	And I started doing security for /RD-WORK-3/,	2344.2585
1966		2344.3701	/RD-WORK-5/.	2345.1513
1968		2345.6490	Because, you know, at a hotel, they preach	2347.6940
1970		2348.5212	like it's in the Bible, hospitality.	2350.1348
1972		2351.6188	Every day, I mean, it's-	2352.5509
1974		2352.8314	and I- I didn't really see security and like hospitality like, connecting together	2356.9282
1976		2357.5736	/?/	2357.7878
1978		2357.9326	until I started working in the hotel /world/ because, of course, you gotta,	2360.2987
1980		2361.2059	you know, provide a p- uh, secure presence by standing in the lobby, at the same time	2364.4846
1982		2365.3208	you gotta be hospitable, too. A guest walk past, how you doing?	2367.9450
1984		2368.8890	Can I help you with anything?	2369.7607
1986		2371.1278	And I think that's learned behavior because if you-	2372.7023
1988		2373.0824	you- growing up, I mean, everybody don't have that personality.	2375.3650
1990		2376.3406	You don't.	2376.7177
1992		2377.8246	I mean, cause I was- I was a person- I used to laugh and joke, but was I open to like, having conversations with people	2382.3497
1994		2383.0706	at a younger age? I'm n- I'm not gonna lie. No I wasn't.	2385.5560
1996		2386.9804	But when I started working in a hotel,	2388.4535
1998		2389.1672	and I saw that everybody	2390.4008
2000		2390.5878	talk to everybody.	2391.6838
2002		2392.6668	Guests'll come up to you and hold a conversation with you for a hour if they could,	2396.1777
2004		2396.6874	about their day, their kids,	2398.3350
2006		2398.6909	um,	2399.1434
2008		2399.2731	things that's going on in the area.	2400.5701
2010		2401.2035	I started to like it.	2402.0631
2012		2402.7787	<clears throat> So the more I start to like it, I switched from part time to full time.	2405.8073
2014		2406.5068	And within-	2406.9713
2016		2407.1914	within like, two years I was promoted to like a, uh,	2409.5991
2018		2409.7258	lead officer or something like that.	2411.0862
2020		2411.7859	And then,	2412.3500
2022		2413.3906	as the lead officer I took on more responsibilities.	2415.5466
2024		2416.2718	Um,	2416.7212
2026		2417.1616	I'm good at writing reports.	2418.3206
2028		2419.3823	<clears throat> And I think initially that's what got me, um, promoted because	2422.0155
2030		2423.1345	it was a instance where my supervisor	2425.1229
2032		2425.7835	I guess she was older	2426.8663
2034		2427.2856	she was inclined to technology.	2428.8540
2036		2429.1164	I [used to do her] reports.	2430.1902
2037	DCB_int_01	2429.2615	[Mm-hm.]	2429.5739
2038		2430.9873	Mm, mm-hm.	2431.9826
2039	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2432.1395	I used to do her reports.	2432.9991
2041		2433.0775	And I think my director found out that I was cause he knew	2435.3246
2043		2435.7295	she wasn't that good.	2436.5549
2045		2436.8365	So he was looking at some of the reports and he was like, man no way in hell she wrote this.	2439.6205
2046	DCB_int_01	2440.1212	Cause it wasn't happening before.	2441.3254
2047	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2441.5396	It sure enough wasn't.	2442.4716
2049		2443.0175	And then	2443.5514
2051		2444.5498	he saw a report that I did and saw they were similar. He never came- I know that's what it was, he never came out	2449.1020
2053		2449.8772	and said it. Until one time	2451.2254
2055		2451.5610	she did a report,	2452.4146
2057		2453.1204	well, she was supposed to do it, I helped her do it.	2454.9881
2059		2455.3976	And he saw her and he was like,	2456.1819
2061		2456.3063	good job on the report you did yesterday. I'm saying to myself, I didn't do no report yesterday.	2459.4009
2063		2460.0464	Then I got to thinking, oh damn, he know.	2461.3555
2064	DCB_int_01	2463.2233	[<laugh>]	2465.0782
2065	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2463.4585	[But I think- And after that I] was- Cause m- m- I- I can say /RD-WORK-3/ was like, one of the best jobs I ever had.	2469.1781
2066		2469.8839	I mean, because I got to meet like a lot of, um-	2471.6755
2067	DCB_int_01	2473.0788	[/Need to get it? Uh,/ mm-hm.]	2474.2129
2068	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2473.1723	[/Let me answer this real quick./]	2474.0289
2069	DCB_int_01	2474.7022	Can't write everything [down.]	2475.7301
2070	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2475.3742	[<clears throat>]	2475.9315
2071	DCB_int_01	2476.0438	Okay.	2476.3756
2073		2477.1296	Um, so you were talking about	2478.2999
2075		2478.6324	he found out about the report.	2479.8898
2076	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2480.2706	Yeah, he found out about the report and, um, he told me good job. Of course,	2483.2990
2078		2483.5338	when he first initially told me I didn't know what he was talking about, and then it dawned on me, dang, he knows.	2487.4165
2080		2488.3515	But after a while, I- I guess the performance- um,	2490.8859
2082		2491.4409	my performance,	2492.3156
2084		2493.1420	uh, he took a liking to. And then when	2495.3537
2086		2497.6460	the assistant director left,	2498.9671
2088		2499.5251	he aksed me to apply to for the position as assistant director.	2501.9078
2090		2502.3461	I didn't really wanna do it, I mean, because I was like, man I-	2504.3941
2092		2505.0637	cause I- I-	2505.5320
2094		2506.1382	I didn't even plan on being there that long.	2507.4171
2095	DCB_int_01	2507.7640	Mm.	2508.1832
2096	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2508.4969	Being at /RD-WORK-3/ was like a stepping /stone-/ stone for me	2510.7569
2098		2511.7703	going on to something else.	2512.9263
2100		2513.7067	But I was- this was like the third year I was there.	2515.6250
2102		2516.3912	So I was there three years past. (laughing)	2518.0569
2103	DCB_int_01	2518.7144	Been here quite a long time.	2520.0597
2104	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2520.1954	Yeah, so I applied for the position, I interviewed with the, um,	2523.2250
2106		2524.0026	executive committee.	2524.8864
2108		2525.5831	And I got the position	2526.3824
2110		2527.2360	as assistant director. And my hours changed. Instead of the morning I came in the evening because	2531.2273
2111		2531.2273	f	2531.6164
2112		2531.6164	the assistant director was also the- um, the night manager on duty.	2534.6907
2113	DCB_int_01	2534.9229	Mm-hm.	2535.3150
2114	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2535.3874	Which means a- anything happen	2537.1097
2116		2537.5953	as far as from emergency standpoint whether it a guest or anything,	2540.3529
2118		2540.7540	they come to me aksing me questions.	2542.2994
2120		2543.3872	Um,	2543.9060
2122		2544.0817	/I just-/ I love working at the hotel. I mean, I- I've seen a lot,	2546.5670
2124		2546.7873	good and bad.	2547.5112
2126		2548.8624	Real bad.	2549.4235
2127	DCB_int_01	2550.0576	What's the craziest thing you've seen? Or the	2552.0212
2128	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2552.7933	<clears throat> [The craziest] thing, and I- I still- I don't still think about it but when I	2556.5493
2129	DCB_int_01	2553.1855	[/?/]	2553.3455
2130	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2556.9836	go past the hotel that cross my mind,	2558.6184
2132		2559.4208	it was a instance where	2560.5074
2134		2561.3006	it was a, um- And	2562.4739
2136		2562.5886	I was assistant director when this happened.	2564.0635
2138		2565.4155	I- um,	2566.0942
2140		2566.9840	I was walking on the floor. Though how it usually works is	2569.0682
2142		2569.7438	/so if/ a guest locked out of their room,	2571.2949
2144		2571.9525	or	2572.6583
2146		2573.1047	somebody needs assistance,	2574.3820
2148		2574.9627	whoever's there they call security and we'll respond.	2577.3161
2150		2577.6056	I was already on the floor and was responding to something else.	2579.7653
2152		2580.1061	I heard a call over the radio about	2581.5328
2154		2583.0145	a- um, a guest needs assistance.	2584.6674
2156		2584.7699	Never said what for.	2585.8075
2158		2586.1242	So I'm on the floor, I'm walking towards the room. As I get towards the room,	2588.7250
2160		2589.4428	one of the housekeeping supervisors walked out the room and said, /RD-NAME-2/ hurry up, hurry up, come here.	2592.8700
2162		2593.2893	So I'm running to the room.	2594.2756
2164		2594.7854	Soon as I get to the door,	2595.8561
2166		2596.2603	it was a- um,	2597.2056
2168		2597.5211	a older woman	2598.2058
2170		2598.6228	like, frantic,	2599.2924
2172		2599.7870	screaming and crying. I was like, ma'am, calm down, /uh/ how can I help you?	2602.6826
2174		2603.3100	She said, my husband, my husband, my husband.	2605.1054
2176		2605.9017	/RD-NAME-2/ I walked in the room,	2606.9905
2178		2607.3012	her husband was just laying on the bed,	2608.6163
2180		2608.9880	<clears throat> stretched out on the bed on his back,	2610.7918
2182		2610.9215	mouth wide open.	2611.7681
2184		2612.9092	I'm not a doctor	2613.7062
2186		2614.3758	by any means,	2615.1540
2188		2615.4104	but once I walked over there,	2616.6138
2190		2617.5941	touched him, cold as ice.	2618.9725
2192		2620.2250	Cold as ice.	2620.9157
2194		2621.0997	And I found out they were there	2622.5023
2196		2622.9366	on vacation	2623.7601
2198		2624.1069	to go sight seeing.	2624.9726
2200		2625.2569	It was him, his wife, their two kids,	2627.0696
2202		2627.5040	and his mother.	2628.1434
2204		2628.9035	So,	2629.3529
2206		2630.0225	she told me that,	2630.8618
2208		2631.0066	um,	2631.5827
2210		2632.1256	earlier that day, well, that morning,	2633.5613
2212		2634.1314	he said he didn't feel well.	2635.1388
2214		2635.2987	His ch- he was like, chest felt funny, and his stomach was hurting.	2637.7697
2216		2638.3971	So it was like, well, you stay here and rest, we'll go sight seeing.	2640.7407
2218		2641.4080	So imagine they went to go sight s-	2642.7925
2220		2642.9493	sight seeing, they came back,	2644.2433
2222		2644.8616	and found him in the room,	2645.8540
2224		2646.1224	his wife,	2646.7287
2226		2647.1004	his mom, and his kids.	2648.3284
2228		2649.0399	And when I get to the room, the kids were like, on the side	2651.3171
2230		2651.4619	/??/ cause they got conjoining rooms.	2653.0311
2232		2654.4819	And they had a housekeeper to t- to take them in the room cause they was like, real real frantic.	2658.0180
2234		2658.7808	So, of course, all of us are, um, CPR, First-Aid, um, certified.	2662.7863
2236		2663.4265	/RD-NAME-2/ like I say, I'm not a doctor. I knew he was- um,	2666.0627
2238		2667.0189	/and/ I had a feeling he was dead, I'll say that.	2668.5122
2240		2669.1883	So I aksed the wife, well, help me move him to the floor cause, you know, you can't do CPR on the bed because	2673.4140
2241	DCB_int_01	2672.7052	[Bed cause] the surface.	2674.3167
2242	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2674.3016	the resistance, so	2675.2517
2243		2675.5382	we moved him on the floor.	2676.5969
2245		2677.4204	Um, but when I first got there I told her to call downstairs and have 'em call the ambulance.	2680.9954
2247		2681.7886	Um, I started CPR process	2683.7220
2249		2684.8358	for like, five minutes, five- five to eight minutes.	2687.3002
2251		2687.9998	During the process, um,	2689.5592
2253		2689.9611	they showed up, the ambulance showed up,	2691.8523
2255		2692.2203	and they saw what I was doing. They was like, well, keep going, cause they started setting up for everything.	2695.4929
2257		2696.1120	So I- I was still doing CPR process until they took over.	2698.7210
2259		2699.6229	Um, from there-	2700.6122
2261		2701.8315	Course, the wife,	2702.5222
2263		2703.4995	s- lo- she's losing it.	2704.7482
2265		2705.3213	They took him to the hospital.	2706.5044
2267		2707.6083	Um,	2708.2900
2269		2708.6399	of course, he was pronounced dead	2709.8404
2271		2710.6427	before he even got there.	2711.6169
2273		2712.3325	But- um,	2713.1378
2275		2713.5873	and that's the first time I actually-	2715.0499
2277		2716.3713	I've seen- like,	2717.5302
2279		2718.2541	from a distance though,	2719.1077
2281		2719.2103	seen people get shot, or people die, but this was the first time I was actually this close	2722.6556
2283		2723.2256	to like, a dead body.	2724.0523
2285		2725.6658	And it stuck /for/ me that entire week.	2727.0502
2287		2727.2161	it was like rolling around in my head like,	2728.8487
2289		2728.9814	dang should I-	2729.4730
2291		2730.5951	what if I'd have got there sooner?	2731.6296
2293		2731.7563	I mean,	2732.1310
2294	DCB_int_01	2732.2902	Mm.	2732.5707
2295	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2733.0865	But, um,	2733.6482
2297		2733.7960	<clears throat>	2734.3963
2299		2734.6134	it got to a point where	2735.7566
2301		2736.9691	like I said, I was doing the CPR process,	2738.6582
2303		2739.2230	it didn't work,	2739.8986
2305		2740.5170	they took him to the hospital, he pronounced dead.	2742.0764
2307		2742.4293	The very next day, I'm walking in the lobby,	2744.3989
2309		2744.5444	I run into his wife.	2745.5639
2311		2746.9996	She look like she was lost. I mean, it's	2748.8513
2313		2749.3915	explainable, I mean, of course she would.	2750.7676
2315		2751.3317	I talked to her for a while, aksed her did she need anything, /I got/ the front desk-	2754.6495
2316	DCB_int_01	2755.4254	It might be /RD-NAME-2/.	2756.2187
2317	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2756.2187	Yeah, just hold on [a sec.]	2756.9939
2318	DCB_int_01	2756.7073	[Mm-hm.]	2756.9637
2319		2757.0210	Wanted to s- start early cause it's gonna start getting busy.	2759.3013
2320	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2759.3013	Yeah.	2759.6106
2321	DCB_int_01	2760.0282	So you saw the wife, [she was-]	2761.7375
2322	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2761.0317	[Yeah, I s- uh], and she was frantic.	2762.6303
2323		2762.7781	I mean, she was-	2763.4447
2325		2763.5714	you could tell she been crying all night, she didn't sleep when I was talking to her.	2766.2830
2327		2767.2519	I mean, of course,	2767.9969
2329		2769.4658	I'm not gonna say I feel your pain because I- I have somebody passing me	2772.3742
2331		2773.0710	as well, but that don't mean I feel the same thing she's feeling.	2775.2216
2333		2775.9515	So I aksed her, I was like, well, um,	2777.5863
2335		2777.9128	if there's anything we can do to help,	2779.3606
2337		2780.2594	just let me know. I gave her my business card,	2782.0420
2339		2782.5706	cause I didn't have a chance to the day before.	2784.1934
2341		2784.8630	We comped her- um, we just went ahead and comped their stay.	2787.3182
2342	DCB_int_01	2788.1114	Right.	2788.3488
2343	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2788.3354	I went over to the front desk,	2789.4846
2344		2789.8133	and I talked to the GM	2790.9505
2346		2791.6321	and, um,	2792.3952
2348		2792.9532	we comped their stay.	2793.8853
2350		2794.1153	They stayed for like another day.	2795.3157
2352		2795.4273	Cause they- they was from-	2796.5660
2354		2797.3788	<ts>	2797.5176
2356		2798.6879	I can't- forgot what city they was from, but it was nowhere near DC of [course.]	2801.7350
2357	DCB_int_01	2801.5239	[Right.]	2801.7803
2358	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2802.7545	Cause I worked at the /RD-WORK-3/ um, downtown on /RD-ADDRESS-2/ by the convention center.	2805.9525
2359	DCB_int_01	2806.0128	Mm, mm-hm.	2806.6281
2360	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2807.0805	So, um,	2807.8467
2362		2811.0748	of course, she- she said she didn't need anything but I let her know, well, I'm'a come back and check on you	2815.0328
2364		2815.4521	later today if th- if- if- if that's okay with- with you.	2817.7354
2366		2818.4563	Uh, she said that's fine, she was about to go, um,	2820.4228
2368		2820.9876	<clears throat> get the kids and have 'em eat breakfast. I was like, well,	2823.4459
2370		2824.4985	I'll be downstairs waiting on you.	2825.6357
2372		2825.8589	Of course, I comped their breakfast as well	2827.3919
2374		2827.8684	once they came down.	2828.7341
2376		2829.4519	I mean, when I- I saw her again when she left, she said she appreciated everything.	2832.5896
2378		2833.4975	I mean, it's nothing really that	2834.9694
2380		2835.2529	we could have [possibly done] [to change it] because she didn't know	2837.8718
2381	DCB_int_01	2835.9358	[Mm-hm.]	2836.3508
2383		2836.5450	[Yeah.]	2836.9649
2384	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2838.5383	and neither we- I mean, we didn't know either I guess	2840.6195
2386		2840.9513	he was sick,	2841.5425
2388		2842.3848	so.	2842.6875
2389	DCB_int_01	2843.9020	/inaudible/ oh.	2844.5203
2390	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2844.5655	No.	2844.7646
2391	DCB_int_01	2844.8400	Okay.	2845.1814
2393		2846.4748	Um,	2847.0148
2394	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2848.7950	[I mean, just-]	2849.3217
2395	DCB_int_01	2848.8735	[So he was] sick.	2849.7421
2396	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2849.8779	Yeah he was sick and ain't nobody knew it. Um, I would say it's nothing we	2853.2108
2398		2853.8570	coulda done, we did everything we could.	2855.4164
2400		2855.6276	And I- like I s- I- I- like I said I knew when I first got there he	2858.3211
2402		2858.4757	was pretty much dead, but	2859.6248
2404		2860.1466	I couldn't say that to her because like I said, I'm not a doctor.	2862.4098
2405	DCB_int_01	2862.7165	[Right.]	2862.9517
2406	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2862.8643	[So] I had to go through the, um, proper procedures	2864.9915
2407		2865.5404	from a CPR standpoint.	2866.8525
2409		2868.2701	Uh, I'm not gonna lie, it was mostly for her benefit.	2871.1815
2410	DCB_int_01	2871.7064	Right.	2871.9446
2411	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2872.5811	And I had no p- I had no problem doing it neither.	2874.1374
2413		2875.0551	I mean, that's the first time I ever- um,	2876.7050
2415		2876.9493	first and only time actually	2878.1528
2417		2879.0818	I ever had to, um, perform CPR.	2880.5326
2418	DCB_int_01	2881.1065	So that was when you were close to a dead body, do you ever feel like there was a time when you	2885.0577
2420		2885.7484	like, were like, oh my god I'm about to die? Like when you were in a situation	2888.8348
2422		2889.0550	where you thought you were gonna die or get killed?	2891.0035
2423	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2891.1400	No.	2891.4416
2425		2892.1564	Never.	2892.4098
2427		2893.5288	Never.	2893.8546
2429		2894.2316	The-	2894.4397
2431		2894.7293	/RD-NAME-2/ the c- the circle I hung around and still hang around	2897.1279
2433		2897.9815	I really never hung around nobody that was- that I'm close to that got into like situations like that or	2902.4063
2435		2902.5579	put theirself in position	2903.6407
2437		2904.0630	to be in- in that situation.	2905.4173
2438	DCB_int_01	2906.6479	So you were always- you were good.	2908.1900
2439	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2908.1779	Yeah,	2908.5308
2440		2908.6786	yeah.	2908.9573
2442		2909.7856	I hang around a lot of positive people, man.	2911.2153
2444		2911.4204	My closest friend is my barber	2912.7294
2446		2913.2942	and I been knowing him ever since we-	2914.6726
2448		2914.9441	I was like, ten years old.	2915.9575
2449	DCB_int_01	2917.6647	[That's a] good thing.	2918.5492
2450	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2917.7824	[Yeah.]	2917.9422
2451		2918.5613	Yeah, I mean, all of my friends- I have- really don't have- of course the p- other than the people here,	2921.9039
2453		2922.3165	but like close-	2923.1279
2455		2923.4114	close friends, I been knowing for decades.	2925.2527
2457		2926.0544	I don't have that many.	2926.8054
2459		2927.8520	But the ones-	2928.3135
2460	DCB_int_01	2927.8581	[That's probably] best.	2928.7268
2461	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2928.7268	Yeah.	2928.9500
2462		2929.0797	The ones I do,	2929.7440
2464		2930.0908	we're really close.	2930.8238
2465	DCB_int_01	2931.2702	So let's talk about DC for a few minutes. Um,	2933.8038
2467		2934.5134	you've grown up here,	2935.5600
2468	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2935.5902	[Mm-hm.]	2935.8809
2469	DCB_int_01	2935.7259	[you s-] you've seen a lot of things	2937.2733
2470		2937.4814	being kind of, [/you know,/]	2939.1214
2471	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2938.6637	[<clears throat>]	2939.2821
2472	DCB_int_01	2940.0278	in your job and stuff.	2941.1861
2474		2941.6747	How has the city changed?	2943.2746
2476		2943.4030	Or do you think it's [changed?]	2944.7605
2477	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2944.5968	[I-] it's- it's- yeah, yeah,	2946.0441
2478		2946.5149	it's [changed.]	2947.0828
2479	DCB_int_01	2946.7228	[<laugh>]	2947.0814
2480	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	2947.6902	The- the whole attitude has changed I guess.	2949.6539
2482		2950.1449	I mean, I'm- like I said, growing up you s- you see a lot growing up as far as	2953.2289
2484		2954.0152	<ts>	2954.1191
2486		2955.2743	<sigh>	2955.9689
2488		2957.4638	who you consider to be	2959.0339
2490		2960.1004	as trouble makers,	2961.2613
2492		2962.5470	um, part of the bad crowd. And these were always the older individuals	2966.1597
2494		2966.5033	that stayed in a lot of trouble.	2967.6244
2496		2968.6091	And they- they younger now,	2969.5881
2498		2970.8992	a lot younger now. Whereas though	2972.4009
2500		2972.6146	of course,	2973.0714
2502		2973.3718	when you had, like if you wanna call it quote unquote beef,	2976.2024
2504		2976.6033	with another individual or another neighborhood,	2978.4255
2506		2980.0404	you fought.	2980.4793
2508		2982.0511	For whatever reason, like I said, I still didn't understand the neighborhood thing because it's not your neighborhood, I never really cared.	2986.6945
2510		2987.7746	But, um, now, they- nobody fights anymore.	2990.1504
2512		2991.5582	At all. I mean, not that fighting was a good thing in general, I mean, but.	2994.0422
2514		2995.3419	Grab a gun real fast. I mean, I think the- the youth today, I mean, they have the right, I think,	2999.7805
2516		3000.8178	um,	3001.3550
2518		3001.5138	mindset as far as like, um, not being scared of anything.	3004.3814
2520		3005.2483	Scared of anything.	3006.0569
2522		3006.7327	But	3007.0908
2524		3007.9138	truly misguided.	3008.8581
2526		3009.7187	Have no guidance.	3010.6775
2528		3011.3394	And when you have no guidance as a child and you not scared, you- you straight reckless.	3014.5396
2530		3016.0731	And cause you, I guess, figure you-	3017.4102
2532		3018.1697	<clears throat> you have the mindset it's no consequences for your actions at all.	3021.3253
2534		3021.7512	You feel you'll never get caught,	3022.9583
2536		3023.7034	everything you do you'll get away with and it's a reason for everything that you do that's negative.	3027.2988
2537	DCB_int_01	3028.7577	So do you feel like the city is getting better or [worse?]	3030.8860
2538	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3030.7590	[Worse.]	3031.2961
2539		3031.4694	I think it's getting worse.	3032.2231
2541		3033.2662	A lot worse.	3033.9275
2543		3034.9238	It's no-	3035.3396
2545		3036.4255	We had a - we always had, uh, a safe haven when we were younger, always had extra activities when we were younger.	3041.4606
2547		3041.9765	Like I said the program called OSAY.	3043.5359
2549		3043.8195	The rec center, it was a whole lot of rec centers back in the day.	3046.3493
2550	DCB_int_01	3046.4301	Mm-hm.	3046.7728
2551	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3047.1232	Every corner it was a rec center. Now, I mean, it's- it's nothing.	3049.7488
2553		3051.6663	It's nothing to fall back on, and I mean, not	3053.1940
2555		3053.6041	to say that	3054.2077
2557		3055.1381	every, um-	3056.0824
2559		3056.3943	Cause I- I- like I said, I didn't think my neighborhood was bad,	3058.5573
2561		3058.7479	I mean, you j-	3059.2793
2563		3059.4647	I'm- I'm never gonna be a person- and I preach this to my daughter,	3061.9222
2565		3062.5200	you never be a product of your environment.	3064.2758
2567		3064.7384	You don't have to be.	3065.5384
2569		3066.7339	Just because you- you're in bad surroundings,	3068.6717
2571		3068.8045	shouldn't mean that you should have the same type of mentality, nah.	3071.5803
2573		3073.4978	Because the neighborhood I grew up in, looking at it now, now that I'm older, yeah it was, uh,	3077.3104
2575		3077.8937	pretty rough.	3078.3644
2577		3078.6734	It was bad.	3079.2597
2579		3080.3599	But me being a person at a younger age, seeing that, well, it's- it's bad, but	3084.2735
2581		3085.0850	that don't mean I gotta follow the same suit	3086.6681
2583		3087.3756	as everybody else.	3088.2362
2585		3088.6636	Now,	3089.1372
2587		3090.2000	everybody's following everybody.	3091.4279
2589		3092.4328	Kids are smoking at a earlier- <laugh>	3094.0125
2591		3094.5410	at a earlier age,	3095.5430
2593		3095.6239	drinking at a earlier age,	3096.8859
2595		3097.2619	stop going to school at a earlier age, I mean, cause it's no guidance at home.	3100.5309
2597		3101.3160	Um,	3101.8011
2599		3102.0062	and a lot of people use the excuse	3103.3346
2601		3103.9901	that,	3104.2954
2603		3104.7300	you know-	3105.0187
2605		3105.3855	<clears throat> a lot of, um, esp- and it's happening with g- more g- girls now than ever.	3109.1137
2607		3109.7525	Boys has always been like that.	3111.0000
2609		3111.6094	That it's no like, predominant male figure in the house	3114.0756
2611		3116.1121	I guess to show the young- young man, um, guidance. I mean, I'm not gonna lie, it's not.	3119.5977
2612	DCB_int_01	3120.1874	Yeah.	3120.5274
2613	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3121.0624	It's not.	3121.4331
2615		3122.0876	At all.	3122.4861
2617		3123.4218	But	3123.7221
2619		3124.0542	it wasn't one in my house either.	3125.2527
2621		3127.4913	I know times are different then, /but/ I- I know mothers and parents are younger now,	3130.8817
2623		3131.5233	but in my household, it was just my mother.	3132.8474
2624	DCB_int_01	3133.5997	Mm.	3133.9665
2625	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3135.2660	But, um,	3135.9042
2627		3136.0399	like I said, I /mean, to-/ I agree, I mean, not agree, but I- yeah, it's gotten worse.	3139.7341
2629		3140.4618	It's getting worse.	3141.3224
2631		3141.9005	And in my personal opinion do I see it getting better any time soon?	3144.6988
2633		3145.3688	No, unless it's a drastic change. No I- I don't see it. I want it to, though.	3148.7828
2634	DCB_int_01	3149.8889	[What does] getting better mean?	3151.0498
2635	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3149.9466	[Cause it-]	3150.1946
2636		3151.6476	<clears throat> Getting better to a point where	3153.5743
2638		3154.7641	kids are more respectful,	3156.0463
2640		3156.3438	they're staying in school,	3157.3718
2642		3158.1666	violence decreases,	3159.8329
2644		3160.4566	because it's going like, higher and higher each year.	3162.9691
2646		3163.7840	I mean, cause you- you- you get to a point where	3165.6669
2648		3166.0856	if you go to a jail,	3167.1166
2650		3168.3526	it's more- the population- I mean, /it-/ to me, jail is a business. I- my father been told me this a long time ago,	3173.6985
2652		3174.6319	that, um,	3175.4174
2654		3176.8642	more kids are getting charges like, at a high rate for everything now.	3179.9605
2656		3181.1561	Is it by design? Maybe it is.	3182.8513
2658		3184.5233	Cause I figure if you put	3185.3641
2660		3185.4870	<clears throat>	3185.9418
2662		3186.9526	everybody in the same confined neighborhood	3188.9279
2664		3189.8346	with no resources,	3191.1602
2666		3191.9260	what g- what good is gonna come out of that?	3193.4306
2668		3194.9814	No resources at all.	3196.1630
2670		3196.5240	Only thing you putting in there	3197.5550
2672		3197.9968	carry outs and liquor stores.	3199.1982
2674		3200.8471	I mean, what- what are you gonna have to do?	3201.9826
2676		3203.7702	You can't- It's- and it's hard to find a job now because-	3206.1498
2678		3207.1807	Is it true that, uh, you- you need a diploma or degree to work in McDonalds now or something like that?	3210.6669
2680		3211.0337	I [think-]	3211.3884
2681	DCB_int_01	3211.2474	[Think-] I think it's getting to that point.	3212.6451
2682	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3212.6457	Yeah, I mean, it's getting to that point. Now is that by design? Maybe it is.	3215.5835
2684		3218.4653	It just- I mean, it's- the system in general I don't- it's a lot of things I don't agree with.	3221.8383
2686		3222.7797	Because I've always believed in- My-	3224.4177
2688		3224.7931	I used to think my father was a Black Panther because he-	3226.8691
2690		3227.4326	he preached this stuff all the time. It's a lot of stuff I learned from him	3230.0380
2692		3230.8495	that we never got taught in school.	3232.3800
2694		3233.7547	A whole lot of stuff.	3234.7515
2695	DCB_int_01	3235.4648	Like what?	3235.8171
2696	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3236.4756	Um, like the Statue of Liberty.	3238.0004
2698		3240.1726	Um, originally it's supposed to have been of a- um,	3242.8496
2700		3243.7968	a gift from the Fr- I think from France, /a/ France that, um,	3246.9018
2702		3247.9501	when slavery was abolished	3249.2092
2704		3250.3620	of a black woman.	3251.2342
2706		3253.1546	I don't know- I don't know if she was holding anything. But if you go to the, um, Statue of Liberty now,	3256.8285
2708		3257.3108	you can see that it was changed, you can still see the shackles on the feet of the statue of liberty.	3261.2041
2710		3261.8395	I was never taught that in school.	3263.1043
2712		3264.0361	Never taught that. I taught- I- I- everything I've learned from my father I tell my daughter.	3267.5175
2714		3268.1009	Cause I know they not teaching it in school.	3269.3513
2715	DCB_int_01	3269.8486	Mm-hm.	3270.2992
2716	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3271.6818	Um,	3272.2132
2718		3272.4592	and it's- Of course,	3273.4885
2720		3273.6634	we get taught about the same- we- where we was in school we got taught about the same individuals.	3277.7012
2722		3278.4145	I mean, I ain't- it wasn't really no big issue at the time, but now that I look at it- but I'm starting to learn more.	3283.0986
2724		3284.2745	I- um,	3285.0109
2726		3285.8282	people of color- color contributed	3287.5003
2728		3287.8468	to this city	3288.4590
2730		3288.9938	than ever.	3289.4386
2732		3290.1952	We learned about Malcolm X, Martin Luther King,	3292.0030
2734		3292.1560	um, Harriet Tubman,	3293.2476
2736		3294.2676	um,	3294.7903
2738		3294.9318	Booker T. Washington,	3295.9021
2740		3297.0082	um, Frederick Douglass.	3298.1113
2742		3300.6561	No k- no in- no inventors, we really never learned about-	3303.0732
2744		3304.0638	Charles Drew, that's the only one I remember.	3306.1089
2746		3306.7327	But no vented- inventors	3308.2055
2748		3308.5289	that we learned about that contributed to the city. I mean, because you gotta figure-	3311.2643
2750		3313.1212	Like, um, I can't- I can't remember who it was.	3315.6688
2752		3317.4882	<ts>	3317.6730
2754		3319.3941	But anyway,	3320.0266
2756		3320.3500	slaves in general invented a lot of stuff. Because	3322.6204
2758		3322.9034	why would somebody invent	3324.1423
2760		3324.8296	I- I guess a slave owner invent like, a gadget or something to make them do their job better?	3329.0725
2762		3330.0890	If I'm doing the job, I'm'a figure out a way myself.	3332.2111
2764		3333.5694	Yeah, [to make it easier] for me.	3335.1173
2765	DCB_int_01	3333.9044	[<laugh>]	3334.6061
2766	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3335.3368	And just that	3336.0587
2768		3336.5237	if I see something like that, me being in the position of, I guess, a slave owner,	3339.9146
2770		3340.8907	I'm gonna take your idea and patent it.	3342.4205
2771	DCB_int_01	3342.7418	Mm-hm.	3343.1524
2772	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3343.7242	That's happened a lot.	3344.4433
2774		3345.3501	I was never taught that in school, though.	3346.5514
2775	DCB_int_01	3347.1694	Yeah.	3347.4264
2776	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3347.8423	I was never taught that in school.	3348.8853
2778		3350.6123	But do I think ch- things are going in direction- a positive direction in DC	3355.1381
2780		3355.3171	ch- as far as for change?	3356.5358
2782		3357.8036	As much as I want it,	3358.5689
2784		3358.9645	I don't.	3359.3255
2785	DCB_int_01	3360.4870	What about	3360.8270
2787		3361.0472	<clears throat> with all these new condos and	3363.0918
2789		3365.0936	[gentrification] and-	3366.6386
2790	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3365.3824	[<clears throat>]	3365.8358
2791	DCB_int_01	3367.6090	What is your- what do you think about that?	3368.8703
2792	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3369.9978	See a- a lot of people think that-	3371.5399
2794		3373.0791	Cause at first,	3373.7260
2796		3373.8675	DC was	3374.6848
2798		3375.3986	all black	3375.8607
2800		3376.3169	for the most part.	3376.9476
2802		3377.5616	Now they building these condos,	3379.3319
2804		3379.6120	um, new developments,	3380.9462
2806		3381.2759	and they moving a majority of the black people that was living in the area to PG.	3384.7269
2808		3386.7692	Same thing.	3387.4969
2810		3387.6587	You confine people into one area,	3389.3866
2811	DCB_int_01	3389.4058	Mm.	3389.8679
2812	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3390.0036	with no resources,	3391.1067
2814		3391.5746	what are you gonna expect to happen?	3392.7389
2816		3393.0422	So-	3393.4551
2818		3394.5034	and- and m- and me personally I don't think it's for our benefit they building these new developments because	3398.9137
2820		3399.7887	if you go down t- Man, I- where- where'd I drive to? I drove by the- um,	3403.1768
2822		3404.3261	the wharf.	3404.8488
2824		3406.5613	Haven't been past the wharf in a while.	3407.8811
2826		3407.9942	I drove past it, didn't recognize the neighborhood.	3409.8338
2827	DCB_int_01	3409.8078	Yup.	3410.0735
2828	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3410.7695	At all.	3411.1895
2830		3411.9997	And the stuff they're- I mean, that they're putting up, I mean, it's-	3414.1777
2832		3414.4232	Of course they're gonna put in condos that	3416.0259
2834		3416.2396	the average, um,	3417.4612
2836		3418.4552	person of color	3419.2782
2838		3419.9308	can't afford.	3420.6066
2840		3421.7849	So,	3422.1834
2842		3422.7667	we gonna move you out, but you have the opportunity to move back	3425.0689
2844		3425.4761	in once we finish rebuilding.	3426.7843
2846		3427.2088	I'm gonna tell you that	3428.0665
2848		3428.6325	knowing that once we rebuild and you try to move back you can't afford it.	3432.4768
2850		3434.4498	So now you have to move somewhere that's more affordable,	3436.5579
2852		3437.2856	in a neighborhood that's worse than the one that we just rebuilt.	3440.0118
2854		3440.3935	And nine times out of ten they have been moving a lot of people to PG.	3442.9117
2856		3443.6250	They redoing a whole lot of areas, man,	3445.1382
2858		3445.6032	in DC.	3446.1958
2860		3446.7358	Cause I drove through where I used to live at.	3448.3097
2862		3449.3435	It doesn't look the same.	3450.2359
2863	DCB_int_01	3450.6286	Mm-hm.	3451.1166
2864	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3452.5987	Um,	3453.2080
2866		3456.5527	I- I- I just don't think	3457.5635
2868		3457.9504	that a lot of people, I guess,	3459.3451
2870		3459.7958	black people realize exactly what's happening as far as like, the change that's happening in DC.	3463.7065
2872		3465.4652	They building a lot of condos.	3466.9068
2874		3468.3160	If you notice a lot of schools are closing, too.	3469.9910
2875	DCB_int_01	3471.1115	Mm.	3471.4985
2876	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3471.6660	A whole lot of schools in DC are closing.	3473.5003
2878		3474.3666	Um,	3475.0106
2880		3475.8654	and a lot of schools are getting overcrowded now, because	3478.2046
2882		3478.5113	if it-	3478.7827
2884		3479.5711	It's a school on /??/.	3480.7089
2886		3481.0468	I can't think of the name of the school. /??/ Street, DC.	3483.2589
2888		3484.0854	That just closed but around the corner, it's another school	3486.7104
2890		3486.8895	that's still open.	3487.5017
2892		3488.9976	Um,	3489.5521
2894		3489.7288	majority of kids that go to that school,	3491.2854
2896		3491.7272	have to go to that school because of the, um, the distance.	3493.8734
2898		3494.8351	/and/ the average person in the city, some of 'em	3496.7411
2900		3497.2435	don't have a car to take their kid to like a- uh,	3499.5394
2902		3499.8051	<laugh>	3500.0736
2904		3500.6027	a private school or something like that.	3502.0610
2906		3502.6011	Schools are getting overcrowded,	3503.8637
2908		3504.5561	the teachers are getting stressed out because they can't deal with the volume of kids that they getting.	3508.0510
2910		3509.3505	Um, they building more private schools and they building more, um,	3512.2880
2912		3513.6800	charter schools.	3514.4066
2914		3514.8062	I mean, which- I mean, I think it's good, but	3516.4696
2916		3520.3313	to build	3520.8857
2918		3521.0937	a- like a- um, I can't think of the neighborhood, but.	3523.3698
2920		3523.7684	I know they- they tore down the school	3525.3004
2922		3526.7024	to put up condos.	3527.7773
2924		3530.9943	That's what happening a lot.	3531.9502
2925	DCB_int_01	3532.2448	Yeah.	3532.5422
2926	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3533.8105	So, I mean, and- and do I think it's- in the long term is it beneficial for us? No, because before you look up,	3538.4340
2928		3539.3818	DC will look totally di- it's- it look totally different now but it's gonna get way (laughing) totally different than what it is now.	3544.3205
2929	DCB_int_01	3545.6201	Yeah.	3545.9493
2931		3546.2670	So let me ask you a couple-	3547.5954
2933		3547.8004	I- I totally agree.	3548.9391
2935		3549.0687	I- um,	3549.7300
2937		3550.1401	I think it's really interesting and like to hear- people who have lived here for so long	3553.7721
2938	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3553.7471	Mm-hm.	3554.0849
2939	DCB_int_01	3554.1629	to hear	3554.7295
2941		3555.2493	what they think about it, right? Cause	3556.7799
2943		3557.2621	I don't really have a stake, I wasn't born here,	3559.1302
2944	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3559.1392	Mm-hm.	3559.4193
2945	DCB_int_01	3559.6307	I went to college here and I work here.	3561.3346
2947		3561.7244	So my view,	3562.7737
2949		3562.8593	I- even going to college here now being here now is still very d- like, it's different, right? From when I went to college here ten years ago to now.	3569.2247
2951		3569.9784	Um, and I'm-	3570.8049
2953		3571.1284	I'm fascinated, like	3572.4452
2955		3573.9729	not necessarily in a good way.	3575.1685
2957		3575.8298	Um,	3576.7718
2959		3576.8844	but then to hear people who've	3577.8865
2961		3578.1608	grown up here all their lives to talk about it.	3580.0148
2963		3580.3354	And they're like,	3580.9187
2965		3581.6124	my city's changing.	3582.7242
2966	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3582.8599	Yup.	3583.0708
2967	DCB_int_01	3584.2634	My city's- you know, it is what- you know. So it's just interesting. But I wanna ask you about a couple of things. A piece- a couple of	3590.3256
2969		3590.8598	DC specific [things.]	3592.4626
2970	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3592.3326	[Mm-hm.]	3592.5868
2971	DCB_int_01	3592.8357	Do you listen to go go music?	3593.8744
2972	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3593.9937	Ye- uh, what? Yes.	3595.0969
2974		3595.5070	Born and raised on it.	3596.3127
2976		3597.3696	I still do.	3597.8692
2977	DCB_int_01	3598.4040	Tell me about it, tell me about go go music.	3600.6806
2978	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3601.5316	I mean, go go music was- I mean,	3603.1719
2980		3603.7327	of course, it started like the-	3605.2863
2982		3606.1873	a lot of people know the seventies, it wasn't the eighties.	3608.0850
2984		3609.3241	It's a lot of bands that we never heard of	3610.9355
2986		3611.9636	<clears throat> that are not known or- or relevant now that started out.	3614.6528
2988		3615.9205	Like Trouble Funk or, um,	3617.8092
2990		3618.3954	<ts>	3618.5196
2992		3620.7120	t-	3620.8044
2994		3621.0932	I can't think of the name of them. But it's a whole lot of bands. But	3623.0598
2996		3623.6288	it- I became, I guess, interested in it because	3626.5287
2998		3627.7329	hearing my brother listen to it all the time.	3629.6451
3000		3630.9390	Um,	3631.5686
3002		3634.0319	and, you know, usually at go gos,	3635.9032
3004		3636.0655	it's our crowd.	3636.8308
3005	DCB_int_01	3637.0791	Right.	3637.3391
3006	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3639.0256	And it can happen- it- you can go to- uh, to- uh, I guess- Well, growing up it used- they used to play like, rec centers,	3644.1174
3008		3645.2151	um,	3645.8799
3010		3646.9109	<ts>	3647.0610
3012		3647.4105	football fields or something like that.	3649.0158
3013	DCB_int_01	3649.0952	Mm-hm.	3649.5099
3014	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3649.5590	And I just enjoy the fact that	3651.2201
3016		3651.5493	we can go somewhere and listen to music for free.	3653.6343
3018		3654.9108	Pretty much.	3655.5577
3020		3655.9475	And that's how it was. And I saw how-	3657.4295
3022		3658.9023	in general	3659.5723
3024		3659.7543	how it brung like, a lot of us like, together.	3661.9785
3026		3662.5445	People you didn't know, because	3663.7603
3028		3664.0693	if a band played	3665.1031
3030		3665.2591	on like, Benning Road,	3666.6597
3032		3667.0871	and it's a well-known band,	3668.1475
3034		3669.1236	people from- it ain't gonna just be people from Benning Road that go over there to see that band play.	3672.3435
3035	DCB_int_01	3672.7628	Right.	3672.9975
3036	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3673.3953	People from Northwest,	3674.4031
3038		3675.3677	Southwest,	3676.1272
3040		3676.4390	Southeast.	3677.0715
3042		3678.0337	All the neighborhoods came /here./ I mean, of course, there was some altercations, I mean, for the- the dumbest reasons.	3682.3481
3044		3683.5674	But I think that's why they starting to fade it out and close a lot of clubs because of that,	3687.5757
3046		3688.9884	what happens afterwards.	3690.1436
3047	DCB_int_01	3690.6085	Mm-hm.	3690.9464
3048	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3690.9348	But I- I love- I love go go.	3692.3874
3049		3692.5203	I listen to it almost every day.	3693.7418
3051		3694.1057	[My daughter-]	3694.6116
3052	DCB_int_01	3694.1640	[What makes] go go	3695.4462
3053		3695.8910	[unique?]	3696.2981
3054	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3696.2057	[<clears throat>]	3696.5349
3055		3698.1926	Um, it's cause-	3699.1658
3057		3699.8392	it's different	3700.4428
3059		3700.9106	from any other music that you ever listen to.	3702.5711
3061		3702.7559	I feel it is because-	3703.8764
3063		3704.1739	Of course some of the songs they do	3705.5346
3065		3705.6559	are like, cover songs	3706.7533
3067		3707.3049	of other artists.	3708.1909
3069		3708.9221	But the way they do it is totally different	3711.1637
3071		3712.2696	from the actual version.	3713.3439
3073		3713.9504	Um, it's more upbeat.	3715.1402
3075		3715.9661	You can dance to it.	3716.9167
3077		3717.2517	Like they take slow songs,	3718.5917
3079		3718.9787	and make it a fast song,	3720.0154
3081		3720.2898	which I think is good.	3721.1561
3083		3721.9941	Um,	3722.5168
3085		3722.6988	what makes it unique is	3724.0532
3087		3725.7455	the fact that	3726.3866
3089		3726.7077	<clears throat>	3727.2824
3091		3727.7848	there's	3728.9804
3093		3731.0135	four or five	3732.0788
3095		3732.2731	instruments,	3732.9287
3096	DCB_int_01	3733.1106	Mm.	3733.3346
3097	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3734.1416	um,	3734.6758
3099		3735.5017	coming together,	3736.2311
3101		3737.0496	at one time to play one song.	3738.7310
3103		3739.7417	Of course it takes practice	3741.1047
3105		3742.3644	to do it. Cause you can't- well,	3743.7275
3107		3744.0740	we're not s-	3744.6227
3109		3744.7526	yeah you can't now.	3745.5793
3111		3750.2286	I think it's really really	3751.5685
3113		3751.7996	unique that	3752.6168
3115		3752.9518	in go go	3753.6449
3117		3754.3385	I could be in a band,	3755.3291
3119		3756.7268	your band playing,	3757.6336
3121		3758.0003	I could come on your stage with your band	3759.7740
3123		3760.3516	never miss a beat.	3761.1515
3125		3762.2951	Cause everybody's in tune with ev- Cause of course, you know, in go go people do some of the same songs.	3766.1279
3126	DCB_int_01	3766.1741	Mm-hm.	3766.4109
3127	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3766.5582	A little different from others,	3767.7888
3129		3768.7847	<clears throat> but it's the same songs.	3770.4255
3131		3770.7345	Cause I think go go is like, a- um, in my opinion it's like a connection	3773.8505
3133		3774.9190	of instruments	3775.7883
3135		3776.0314	and individuals.	3777.0075
3137		3778.0587	Um,	3778.4486
3139		3778.6363	just-	3778.9048
3141		3779.0897	I mean, and- and you gotta figure you go to a go go,	3781.1458
3143		3781.5507	you gonna be there for a couple of hours.	3782.9111
3145		3783.4422	It's not /just that/ you going in and see them play one	3785.7554
3147		3786.0846	or two songs, nah.	3787.1912
3149		3787.8929	A variety of songs you will hear one time	3790.0213
3150	DCB_int_01	3790.8183	Mm.	3791.1620
3151	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3791.1885	from other artists that you'll- And then it's- and they do songs that they know you will like.	3794.3854
3152	DCB_int_01	3797.4615	Mm.	3797.7272
3153	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3797.6839	But I l- I love go go, man.	3798.8072
3154	DCB_int_01	3799.2751	What's your favorite- who are your favorite bands?	3800.8981
3155	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3800.5208	<ts>	3800.6080
3156		3801.1076	Now, um,	3802.1963
3158		3803.3803	of course Northeast Groovers who's been around forever.	3805.3456
3160		3807.0282	Um,	3807.7213
3162		3808.8885	<ts>	3809.0127
3164		3809.9859	I like Junkyard and Backyard a little bit.	3811.7215
3166		3811.9323	But	3812.1258
3168		3812.4955	Northeast Groovers.	3813.2492
3169	DCB_int_01	3813.2781	Northeast Groovers?	3813.9714
3170	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3813.9972	Yeah.	3814.2340
3171	DCB_int_01	3814.4448	What about mumbo sauce? Are you a mumbo sauce eater?	3816.9375
3172	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3817.3592	Um,	3818.0618
3174		3819.0948	<laugh>	3819.7908
3175	DCB_int_01	3820.7587	<laugh>	3821.9687
3176	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3822.9188	Yes I am.	3824.5765
3178		3825.1257	Not as much I was as a child.	3826.9277
3179	DCB_int_01	3827.2107	Mm-hm.	3827.5602
3180	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3828.7529	But yes I am.	3829.5542
3182		3829.9369	<clears throat> Not that I'm a mumbo sauce connoisseur,	3832.3777
3184		3832.7329	it's two different kinds.	3833.7205
3185	DCB_int_01	3833.6685	Okay tell me about the mumbo sauce.	3835.1154
3186	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3835.2164	Uh, it's one 'em got a more tangy like, tastes like barbecue-	3838.9568
3188		3839.3322	close to barbecue type flavor.	3840.5971
3189	DCB_int_01	3840.6981	Mm-hm.	3840.9835
3190	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3841.2041	And the other one is a little more sweeter	3842.9743
3192		3843.6876	and more brighter.	3844.3460
3194		3844.9092	One is the same color as barbecue sauce,	3846.8094
3196		3847.7312	and it tastes like barbecue sauce a little bit like a tangy, like, Kansas City barbecue sauce.	3851.7597
3198		3852.2044	The other one,	3852.9437
3200		3853.7818	is the one when you eat it and it gets on your fingers and you eat it,	3856.2782
3202		3857.1548	the color of the barbecue s- I mean, the mumbo sauce is still on your fingers.	3859.6216
3203	DCB_int_01	3859.6245	Mm-hm.	3860.0085
3204	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3860.3522	It's like a brighter color though.	3861.4380
3205	DCB_int_01	3861.6084	[Where do you] get your mumbo sauce from?	3863.2697

3266	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3931.3630	I still go to the carry out, but not as much as I used to. Like,	3934.4299
3267		3934.9647	to go get a steak and cheese from the carry out, I don't do that no more.	3937.5032
3268	DCB_int_01	3938.2222	Mm.	3938.9240
3269	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3939.2792	I don't do that no more. I think I'm more health conscious now because I'm getting older.	3942.0261

3282	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3953.5613	I'm more conscious now. And, of course, if I want something,	3955.8293
3284		3956.8569	I cook it myself.	3957.6770
3285	DCB_int_01	3957.9456	Right.	3958.2696
3286	DCB_se3_ag3_m_02	3958.8033	So I'm not even gonna lie, when it comes to, um, cooking, I'm kind of arrogant.	3961.4684
3288		3962.9884	To the point where if I eat something, man I can make this better than this.	3965.6817
3290		3966.5294	I'm like that with all the food now. It's /just/ time	3968.4210

3432		4129.2702	Real cool guy.	4129.9552
3434		4131.3154	But I bring that up because I think that	4133.1514

3438		4137.5941	We do have a lot of problems in our city.	4139.2113
3439	DCB_int_01	4140.2972	Mm-hm.	4140.6235

3446		4148.5056	Other than my family,	4149.3921
3448		4149.9899	that was my concern.	4150.8646
3450		4151.4373	But going to that program, seeing all these people with all these problems,	4154.3396
3452		4154.7728	drug addiction,	4155.5092
3454		4156.1965	uh,	4156.4304
3456		4157.1471	kids leaving the house running away,	4158.8712
3458		4159.2610	seeing it from the outside, all these individuals. And	4162.4642
3460		4162.8223	those just the ones I came in contact with. I knew it was more, had to be more	4166.4119
3462		4167.2037	that, um-	4167.8997
3464		4170.2129	<clears throat> From then on, I always took a liking to like,	4172.8905

3467	DCB_int_01	4175.5473	Mm.	4175.8881

3472		4181.0723	can play a part in a child's life	4182.5896
3474		4183.4173	in any type of way.	4184.3679
3476		4185.0610	I mean, because I ran into problems when I was coaching whereas though	4187.6139
3478		4187.9979	it was a single mother, child's really really really spoiled.	4190.5745
