First I was addicted to alcohol... then prescription drugs... then nicotine... then caffeine... then to my own childhood as a child of an alcoholic... then to gambling... then to spending... then to members of the opposite sex... Altogether that's NINETY-SIX STEPS I'm working!
Fred, a
long-time AA member, let his
son borrow his truck for the
night.
At the next night's meeting,
Sally, the group gossip &
self-appointed monitor of
the group's morals, accused
Fred of drinking, after
seeing his pickup parked in
front of the town's only bar
the night before. She had
called other women in the
group, and they went to see
it too.
Fred, a man of few words,
stared at her a moment, then
turned & walked away. Later
that evening, Fred quietly
parked his truck in front of
Sally's house...walked
home...and left it there all
night.
Staking out a notoriously rowdy bar for possible drunk drivers, a cop watched from his squad car as a fellow stumbled out the door, tripped on the curb and tried 35 cars before opening the door to his own and falling asleep on the front seat. One by one, the drivers of the other cars drove off. Finally, the sleeper woke up, started his car and began to leave. The cop pulled him over and administered a Breathalyzer test. When the results showed a 0.0 blood-alcohol level, the puzzled policeman asked him how that was possible."Easy," was the reply. "Tonight was my turn to be the decoy".
How many
Al-Anon members does it take
to screw a light bulb?

and let it screw itself.
How many
alcoholics does it take to
change a light bulb?
Change? What do you mean,
change?
A drunk goes in a bar and asks for a shot of Jim Beam. The bartender pours it and the drunk pushes it aside and asks for another shot of Jim Beam. The bartender pours it and the drunk drinks it. The bartender says, "I watched what you did and I don't understand why you pushed the first one away and drank the second one!" The drunk stated," I've been going to those AA Meetings, and they said WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T TAKE THAT FIRST DRINK!"
Two rednecks, Bubba and Gator, were driving down the road drinking a couple of bottles of Bud. The passenger, Bubba,said. "Lookey thar up ahead, Gator, it's a po-lice roadblock! We're gonna get busted fer drinkin these here beers!! "Don't worry Bubba" Gator said. "We'll just pull over and finish drinkin these beers, peel off the label and stick it on our foreheads, and throw the bottles under the seat". "What fer?" Asked Bubba. "Just let me do the talkin okay?" Said Gator. Well, they finished their beers,threw the empty bottles under the seat, and each put a label on their forehead.
