Chapt 6: Questions & Answers - p.157-191

Hi fellas,
We had an interesting meeting last week... all five of us! Geez, you leave town for a week and everyone forgets about you!! lol
This week we're reading Chapt 6: Questions & Answers - p.157-191 Which brings me to a bit of business. 

After the meeting I'm calling for a group conscious meeting to discuss two topics: 

1- This weeks reading is the last chapter in "A New pair of Glasses" so we need to select our next book for reading. I actually apologize for waiting til now to bring this up but what what kind of alcoholic would I be if I didn't leave something for the last minute!
2 - It's come to my attention and to others that all great AA groups have great group names.... I heard some great names like the Hair of the Dog Group in West Chester, PA, the Last Straw Group in Covina, CA, or the High we Cannot Buy Group of LA....  On the other hand, our group's name is..... "The Big Book Study Group" 😴 Which is lame and not even completely accurate since we've read other stuff too! If you've got suggestions, bring 'em or e-mail 'em to me!!
See you Wednesday night my friends!

Regards,

A Drunk, Like You p398-406

Hi everyone, My apologies on sending this out late this week, I've been battling a little bit of a cold lately. Anywho, I'd like to thank Dave W. for sharing his excellent story with us last week, nothing helps recovery along like a heavy dose of humor & depravity and Jesus Dave delivered in spades!! Also I'd like to remind everyone of the upcoming AA convention in Manuel Antonio that's taking place from May 6-8th. We're still working on the details of organizing our group to get out there but let me know if your interested and go online to  register now  -  It's FREE!!  (to register anyways, you pay later!!) This week we'll be reading  A Drunk, like You p398-406 . This was the first time for me reading it and I got a lot out of it. Aside from the fact that I always love listening to another  Member of the Tribe  breaking barriers by showing that alcoholism is no respecter of race, religion or creed, proving you  jew *i mean too*  ...

Gutter Bravado p501-511

Good evening Folks, This week we will be reading & discussing  Gutter Bravado p501-511.   One of the great joys of my life is hosting this Wednesday night meeting of which I've had the privileged to serve for some time now. So it gives me a great sense of satisfaction whenever I hear someone, especially a new comer, say that there is  something  special about our meeting. To me it means that the same  something-ness  with which I fell in love with is still there.  Last week, Fred brought up an article originally written in the July 1976 issue of "24 Magazine". In the article, the unknown author compares the quality of someone's AA program to Strong/Medium/Week Coffee.  See the article here:  http://www. barefootsworld.net/ aagreshamslaw.html  It's a bit long but well worth the read (kind of like my e-mails!! lol).  Basically it describes how the rapid growth of AA in the early 40's created a situation in which y...
