Solid post Greg. Yeah bro, thats a lot of drinking. I'm stoked for anybody who is willing to look at his life and desire change. Proud. I've always enjoyed your wit and persona here on the Taco. Hope you navigate this thing bravely and efficiently. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step! See you in the hills.

REgarding cocaine.... In NY AA, there is a saying. "You know when they (the person qualifying, or sharing their story formally as the speaker at a meeting)bring up coke, the part of their story where they hit bottom is coming soon."
Seen plenty of professionals who started doing coke and found themselves getting clean off a horrible run on crack.

hey there say, folks... just saw this film clip coming out of the
community of south texas...
were i used to life, for about half my life...
drinking, sadly, is an abused past time, down there,
in certain areas...
here is a gal, after her mistakes, getting out INTO
the community, to speak to these kids...
just thought it would be nice, to pass her message,
along, somehow...
so thought, this spot, might be good...
if any of you have kids, or, even family members that
this might help...
here it is:
good for her, to use her mistake to help
that others might live:

Wouldn't say that I was/am an alcoholic but I noticed that I had less patience after I had a beer or two, so I am trying an experiment of no booze. After a month I've noticed some weight loss and I feel more coherent in my thoughts. When I think about drinking, right now I'm not craving the feelings of dizziness- more to follow.

After suffering a particularly vicious three-day hangover from drinking too much cheap vodka in Moscow (during a business trip, oh the shame), I now drink as much water on a night out as alcoholic drinks (one beer, one water) and if it's a long night, I'll switch to water by the end of the evening. I've not had a hangover for three years. Sometimes wake up feeling a bit dry and hungry (coconut water to replace the electrolytes and some fried eggs set me right within an hour!)
Actually, after the hangover-from-hell, it was a good three months before I could even stand the whiff of booze, let alone drink again. And, It was more the fact that I woke up with a cut on my head, and vast blank patches from the previous night than the three days of feeling like a horse was stamping on my head and liver (whilst trying to work) that put me off the booze...Oh god. By the way, its true? http://natadviser.com/best-essential-oils-for-hangovers/ Found this article
