Poor CJM.You came in here like a Bill Wison wannabe, telling these people
how to work the program and you got caught up in a buzzsaw and got chewed
up.

I've got two things for you to remember:

1.) This ain't your father's AA meeting
2.) I knew Bill Wilson and you're not a pimple on Bill
Wilson's ass.

How fucking dare you call this group ALT.BULLSHIT! We have more experts
in this group than any group I have ever read. Since I have been reading
the posts on ARAA, I am not even sure that god is changing the red
lights to green for me. Bring up any subject and one of our experts will
shove it where the sun doesn't shine. Overall our experts know more
about the unknown than is actually known in the civilized world.

Here's another concept. Why don't you monitor the group and then you might
actually find a captive audience with some unsuspecting newbies. Then,
unlike what probably happens in your homegroup, you might attract a
following and become a pigeon collector. Notice I used the term pigeon
collector instead of sponsor.

I'm guessing that you'd better pounce fast on those newbies. A lot of them
learn to spot full of shit, know it all types pretty fast.

Ain't life grand ?

Just what it is about AA that makes one bond with the fellowship?
Ideally, I think, it would be finding comfort, support and renewed hope
for the future in a fraternity bonded by the experience of a common
struggle and accomplishment. Of course, that is not always the case.

When someone claims to be a member/representative of AA and yet resorts
to ranting and name calling (assholes, etc.) it does not reflect on AA
(other than that not *everyone* can carry the message) but rather the
individual. Even an alkie who is still drunk commonly has the intuition
to sniff out a poseur.

Don't know Ken, but having known you for a number of years, I kind of
suspect you harbor some of the same feelings as I. I know how hard I've
worked over the last 14 years to attain some kind of status on ARAA, and
being of a *not* *yet* perfectly, recovered alcoholic variety, and also
knowing and accepting that I most never am likely to be even close to
saintly, I most of the time fall back into my old *all* or *nothing*
mentality, i. e, "Gawd Damn It! If I can't be best, I'm damn sure not
gonna settle for middling nor mediocre, so I'll shoot for the bottom
instead of the top." So rather than striving to become and portray
myself as the most erudite around, I've endeavored to at least be the
biggest idiot on the ground. I work damn hard 24/7 to maintain that
distinction.

It just pisses me off when these guys show up and come in here and make
me look so inept at my efforts and small day to day achievements at what
I'm trying to do with my pitiful struggling efforts, and they do it with
such finesse, grace, sequential transparency, facility, ability, they
make me look like a Sasquatch or quadriplegic octopus trying to do
Ballet in Hob Nailed Jack Boots. Fscken wannabe or Pseudo-Idiot, or even
an Idiot-Savant with no developed abilities at all other than Idiot
Recognition...

*Does* *NOT* *EVEN* stand the chance of a snow ball in hell at excelling
in his aspirations.

Fuck it! I give up! How does one compete with natural, inborn talents or
seeming genetically transfered, virtuoso like idiocy?

Just Another Failing 'nd Flailing Idiot am I!

Have you guys been able to get them toys-R-us UbuntuCE (Christian
Edition) laptops w/Dan's Guardian factory installed on them to let you
log onto any of those South Park Youtube videos or subscribe to ARAA or
even any Usenet Newsgroups yet?

I'm with ya on the How dare you.... if there is going to be name
changing it ought to at least be something along the lines of:
alt.clusterfuck.aa!

The wonderful thing about this place is the removal of one's insanity
without ending up sane. The ability to say no to the 1st drink and
still be a functioning practioner of insanity is right up there with
red light green light! Unlike the drunks who have all the answers to
all the worlds problems, but can't get out of bed in the morning, here
you can find all the answers by people who can get out of bed in the
morning. Some if not most are actually sober too.

You're right about the experts here.... this is the place to come to
double check and find out is the civilized world has a clue ...if you
read or hear something in the CW and then come here and it doesn't
match up then you know it's bullshit and can ignore it. This is an all
inclusive expert problem solving site ... hardly any important topic
is bypassed ... here solutions are freely offered up ...gives new and
expanded meaning to practicing *this principles* in all your
affairs...which I think is what AA suggests too.

What one finds here (imo) is a mixture of those who would not
ordinarily mix with those who wouldn't ordinarily mix. People who have
taken the time to reach deep inside to find the deep reality and are
perfectly willing to share it and give it away freely. They range from
intellectuals to nutbars, span oceans, and are full of hopes
..sometimes conflicting hopes, but hopes nevertherless.

Here you don't find the blind leading the blind ... you discover the
blind walking the road hand in hand. A place where if the shoe doesn't
fit ... well then you just don't have to wear it! If next week it does
fit you can change your mind and put it on! Very few doormats can be
found here, but for sure there are plenty of welcome mats.

If an unsuspecting persons stumbles in ... they get the choice of
being welcomed or leaving .... they don't have to leave nor do they
have to stay ...it's their choice ... the party line is there are no
party lines.

And by the way CJM, in case you hadn't figured it out, this thread is
mostly about having fun amongst ourselves. Once it became clear you
/weren't/ a struggling newcomer in need of help, everyone pretty much
ceased giving a shit about your opinion of our little Shangri-La.

Funny how finding out about the death of a contemporary can give the
sorry quality of your own life an instant makeover into something that
doesn't look half bad.

You and your 4,730,825 pals watching this are worse than fools,

Neither one of you can get it right. *Cesspool* damn it. And most damn
days it's about as entertaining, inspirational, exciting and
enlightening and all that stuff as watching a cesspool evaporate with
not even a breeze blowing over it to ripple the surface because
cesspools are not sewage disposal units, they are simply sewage storage
units to contain the shit until it can be pumped, dipped what ever out
and disposed of or utilized to fertilize the turnip fields in Europe or
rice paddies in Asia. They is commonly refereed to as honey pits in
those parts of the world, not to be confused with ordinary shit pits
unner the out house of trench holes in soldiers bivouac areas and the
receptacles or containers that is used to transport the shit is honey
pots. They are not equipped with agitators nor nothing to stir em like
some high class septic tanks or commercial sewage disposal units. The
honey pots can range from five gallon buckets carried on ends of stick
over an Asians shoulders to larger capacity vats or tanks on wheels
pulled behind tractors or oxen

But it they ain't stirred occasionally, they got a tendency to crust
over 'nd solidify.

They is stirred with a big ladle about the size of a boat oar.

Now yew guys knows whut is a Shit Stirrer and purpose of one. I miss
some of out shit stirrer extraordinare like Craig S. My jeep driver rear
ended a 1000 gallon honey pot in Korea once...

I would tell you what it's like to be immersed in a 1000 gallons of
liquid shit, but being alcoholics I doubt there is any need. You prolly
all know what it is like to be at least figuratively if not literally.

Probably know what it smells like also. ;-)

Sooooo don't none yew fergits damn it. Charlie knows shit as opposed to
most here who don't know shit. ;-)
