Yep - we came, we came to, then we came to believe. We couldn't, HE could and Now we let him. It is a WE program.

RE: So whats wrong with being a friend of Bill W's

You are sooo right nwnstar - I for one will always have another drink left in me - but I do not know if I have another recovery. I am not willing to take the chance and neither are a lot of other people I know.

Will you settle for two out of three

RE: So whats wrong with being a friend of Bill W's

Never fear my friend. Good things alway come to he/she who stays sober and waits. I am a friend of Bill W. too and it saved my life in more ways than I can count. If I got to get drunk to find a woman - heck I will just stay single then.

Ways To Drive A Woman Crazy

Be careful what you ask for. I am ex Florida Native. Crocs were as common as dogs where I grew up - ever hear of Alligator Alley?

Ways To Drive A Woman Crazy

1. Call her by the dog's name and then deny it.

2. Answer all her questions with a question, preferably one on a totally
different subject.

3. Superglue the commode seat in the up position.

4. Shrink her jeans and when she overreacts because she thinks that she's
gaining weight, give her a condescending smile and say that you prefer
her with some meat on her bones.

5. Firmly refuse to ever ask for directions even if you find yourself in Georgia when your original destination was California.

6. Call her by your mother's name and then deny it.

7. Start a conversation with the dog in the middle of one with her.

8. Buy her power tools for Valentine's Day.

9. Never give her a straight answer.

10. Take up yodelling and practice a lot.

11. Quote Tim Allen to validate your position during arguments.

12. Leave the newspaper open to an ad for plastic surgery.

13. Pretend you forgot how to speak English.

14. Answer every question with "Yes, dear." (Use with caution as PMS is
a valid murder defense in many states.)

If there are any more please feel free to add on.

Coffee - Nectar Of The Gods

Yikes! It seems like someone has already started a thread like this. I am sorry folks. I did not search them out well enough. It is ok if ya let this one die.

RE: Influenced By Your Environment

I am not big with change. Takes me too long to readjust. I like my quiet little life. Work for myself, nice little suburban home with a green yard, trees, a summer garden, a little porch to sit and watch sunsets on...peaceful, serene - I would not react too well if that were to change

Coffee - Nectar Of The Gods

Being both an ex smoker and a recovering alcoholic - I could never bring myself to drink a cup of tea. I got to have atleast one vice left that I can hang on to - coffee is it

Glasses or no glasses?

I am thinking about getting contacts for the first time in my life. I've been told I look a whole lot better without glasses.

So I am kind of taking a poll here. On a PHYSICAL level ONLY are you attracted to someone who wears glasses or someone who don't? We are talking about first impressions only here. Thanks for your opinions.

Coffee - Nectar Of The Gods

Yes just two donuts - I am a fitness nut and too many donuts are fattening Good morning my friend

Coffee - Nectar Of The Gods

3. Sugar

4. Cream & Sugar


I take mine with 1tsp sugar and hazelnut cream and two donuts if I got em!

RE: Relapse And Recovery

Hey Rainbow my friend. Sorry I did not catch this thread sooner. I have been signed off and attending online meetings on paltalk.

Anyway, as you know I got quite a few 24 hours in this program myself. It is my way of life now. If you are having problems with guilt and some of the steps there is a good site you might want to visit. I know I am not supposed to do this, but in the interest of recovery here it is I send all my sponsees there and often print out the steps from it to guide them through. I am what is called a big book thumper myself. All my answers are right in there.

However, the book "as bill sees it" covers just about every single topic a person will run into during his journey in recovery.

Hang in there bro - and if ya need a friend, I am but an email away.

RE: To Web Cam Or Not......

I have a webcam and I use it all the time. Nothing like chatting thru a mic and watching the person you are speaking to on web cam at the same time.

RE: WAKE UP CALL

That is right. Angel (Pantherkiss) does have a man. ME and I just became aware of this thread. Who the hell are all you people to go taking someone elses inventory like this? This is nothing but "contempt prior to investigation". You got nothing better to do than to pick on some one else. Hell, NO NE of us a perfect on here. I have known Angel for quite a long time now. She is a woman of rare honesty, intelligence and emotion. What the heck do you all care what she says or does? I am the one dating her, not any of you. Like they say, one persons trash is another persons treasure. You all believe she is trash, I believe she is a treasure. Your loses are my GAINS. Clean up your own backyards before you go trying to sweep up someone elses!

RE: Are guys - Scared or intimadated by you?

No woman intimidates me. I am me - for better or worse. It is the only person I know how to be. If I like someone I WILL write her or send her a flower. If she does not respond - well I can't miss what I never had and that is her friendhsip.

RE: THE PHONE CALLS STOP

Many, many years ago - I knew another girl - pretty much the same thing, calls, letters, IM's ect - we even met f2f and got along great. One day I never heard from her again. No calls, no letters, no internet, nothing. I kept feeling inside that it just wasn't like her to call it quits wihout telling me something. So I went on a search for her. I found her. She had been in an accident and was in a hospital in a coma. she died 6 weeks later too. She never came out of the coma. I suppose instead of trying to find her and find out what was going on, I should have just moved on like you said

RE: Body & Soul

Coffee, prayers, vitamins, a good gut busting workout, and a hot shower afterwards, usually sets my day right as rain

RE: THE PHONE CALLS STOP

This actually happened to me once. I was involved with someone, things were going great, we talked on the phone every day for hours on end, we exchanged emails, and chatted on IM till the weeee hours of the morning.

Then one day, I lost my job. I kept trying to find work to no avail. My internet got shut off without warning, so did my phone. The two were tied together, when one got disconnected the other did too.

I went to the library to let her know what happened, and on my way there, the transmission blows in my car!!

Nobody I knew had free long distance, and the ones who had long distance, would not let me make a call.

It took me two months to relocate, get another job, and fix my car. And get interned and phone service again. When I did, I called her first thing, no answer...then I get on the internet, and I find her. Here she has a new boyfriend.

I was a little ticked that after all the phone calls ect ect we shared, that she did not have enough faith in me to know that sooner or later I would have found a way to get in touch with her.

And yes, I could have wrote her a letter too. Only I did not have her mailing address at the time.

Now her and the boyfriend have broken up and we are gonna give it a second try. But in the back of my mind I am always going to wonder what will happen between us IF I should ever fall on hard times ever again?
