WE ARE NOT A GLUM LOT

Why can't an alcoholic climb a ladder to change a light bulb?

They give up around the fourth step and leave the room in a blackout.

What do you call two drunks and a resentment?

An AA meeting.

Its not called alcohol-wasm.

How many alcoholics does it take to change a light bulb? Just one, they hold it up and the world revolves around them.

Steps One, Two, Three and Four.

Step One We admitted we were powerless over alcohol--that our lives had become unmanageable.

Step Two Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity.

Step Three Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood him.

Step Four Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves.
