Sandy Beech, and I'm an alcoholic. Hi. Hi. Just for Chuck's benefit, I have to correct the anonymity break that I made in the program. And so we'll just call Sandy Beech the location of the meeting when this gets back to GSO, and I'll start over again and say, my name is Richard, and welcome to Sandy Beech. I came into AA on Pearl Harbor Day in 1964, and I haven't been drunk since my first meeting. And I've been to an awful lot of meetings since that first night, and I've done a lot of listening. And I'm convinced deep down in my heart that I owe it all to not drinking. That is my opinion of why I haven't been drunk since my first meeting.

And, you know, there may be somebody new here who hears about the spiritual awakening and peace of mind and all of those things. And I hate to break the news, but this not drinking part really fits in there. I thought maybe in the beginning you could work the steps and then you'd have a spiritual awakening and you wouldn't have a problem with drinking anymore. And it's very difficult to have a spiritual awakening when you're thrown up in the toilet. It's a problem. And so if you've been having trouble over the years, you know, check your drinking. It's just a suggestion like the rest of the program. It's funny about those suggestions. You notice in the 12 and 12 it's very carefully hidden, but in almost every step there's a little sort of a cautionary flag, and it says something like, failure to properly…
