The message is...

...because AA works, as of 2:00 this morning (Sunday, the 7th) I have been clean and sober for 29 years.

Let me say that again: because AA works, I'm clean and sober again today.

And because AA works I am one grateful scooter tramp! :andy:

That is a wonderful collection of days at a time.

Congratulations on the many miles of sober riding you have put in.

And... Thank you for sharing what you have learned with us all.

Bill,
Congrats man.
My sponsor tells me to keep an old timer in one pocket and a new comer in the other. Guess that means that I have somthing to learn from everyone, and that everyone has their place in this program.
Thanks for sharing that man...

Congrats Bill! That's quite a few "24 hrs" put together! It's amazing to see how much time passes when we stay in the day, work our program and trust God! Before we know it, 29 years have gone by!! You're an inspiration and I'm glad to have met you!!

Blessings to you my friend!!
