Good deal Irish, I have very much appreciated your comments on SR as of late. Pass it on.

CAPTAINZING2000 · 09-06-2009, 09:35 AM

grats to you on 2 years sober

FightingIrish · 09-06-2009, 09:36 AM

I wonder if it's "Probably New York", which is where I lived when I was drinking. Since I moved to "New York" I've been a lot better.

Thanks for all the good wishes. Just another day on the road, but it's nice to pause, reflect, and acknowledge all the people who help me, many of whom are on these boards.
