True enough, Hollywood. Just remind me, will you?// You want to get me started on Al-Anon and AA, do you? Have a supply of stories and experiences. As J. said- sober 30+ years- there are a lot of p----s in the program. You are just mad because I still drink and you don't. I helped start an Al-Anon group. I wrote an article on Native Americans and their struggles with booze. After my last experience, you couldn't get me back with chains. Even my daughter and #2 son promises me a life with a view and a bottle of whiskey. As you dispose many authors and artists who prefer ardent spirits to whet their passions, do you take cream or sugar in your coffee?
