"Ceasing to drink is not recovery. "

Lindy — 8/10/2006 4:20:50 PM (archived)

So, I take it that includes our fearless leader.....GWB, the dry drunk?

I have known a few alcoholics, all sensitive A type personalities. Conflicted. Some have cut back due to age and experience; others are completely sober and still brilliant.

Life certainly can be challenging and demanding; alcohol has a way of dumbing down the consciousness by destroying brain cells. I'd like to see some studies of chimps that could get themselves a tasty drink if they could just push a lever. How many took the easy way out?
