Learn how to survive Alcoholics Anonymous and the Twelve Step program. Using my 16 years of sobriety, this blog will teach you (1) who will benefit from working the 12 steps program and (2, more inportantly) who will get RUINED by working the 12 steps! I will teach you How to succeed in the 12 step Fellowship.

The week that spawned a slogan

Filed under: 3 What it is like now — August 9, 2006 @ 8:32 pm

A few postings ago I put up the story of how my employment and job seeking went from years 1 through 5. At the end of this story I make mention of the week where I have two great job offers and I was not sure how to choose.  This posting is that story. I am going to write this out telling you how I thought about it at that time. This is not sarcasm. (Well in this posting there isn’t any).

not so fast! A FULL refund please!

Filed under: The 12 Steps, 3 What it is like now, AA as a Hole — July 30, 2006 @ 7:48 pm

well there’s been some local AA action concerning my blog this last two weeks. Some of it is gratifying to experience, other parts are annoying. And as comes as no surprise to my old time readers, the question (or demand) of “why dont you leave AA then and go back out drinking?” has resurfaced.  I addressed this very early on in the blog’s history; you can read that posting here.

The infamous email, aka the forgotten plea

Filed under: 3 What it is like now — July 28, 2006 @ 11:21 am

I HAD to bring this up to the blog immediately. I just accidently found an email I sent out back in November 2002. It is of immense inportance to the whole “what the fuck happened to Harry” issue that all the AAers I know have asked.

The Currency of AA

Filed under: AA as a Hole — July 22, 2006 @ 11:42 am

First, let me remind you of what I have mentioned in this blog before: There is no planned conspiracy among AA members to lie or deceive any one else in AA. (More on this at the end of the posting.)

So you have seen one of the aa-a-go-go tee shirts? Maybe talked to me or one of my friends about the blog.  I dont expect most people in the southbay aa area to find my blog something they like.  BUT BEFORE you decide to either post comments on this blog or perhaps even to me in person this weekend, can you PLEASE finish reading this article here??

the no frills story line of employment in sobriety

Filed under: 3 What it is like now — June 28, 2006 @ 4:44 pm

I’ve been trying since the first week of this blog’s creation to write out the next installment of “my story”. So let’s try a “Just facts” method to getting this part of my story written out. This posting will be ONLY about the long search for employment and those jobs I found. That’s all it will discuss. We will leave out love life, social life, etc. Those topics we will pick up in other postings.

Yes there are genuinely good people in AA

Filed under: AA as a Hole — May 27, 2006 @ 4:36 pm

I can see where giving a fast read through my postings that you might get the impression that I think the fellowship of AA is as evil as the current leaders of the GOP. Well for the record, I do not think that.
