Yeah,Stamps,AA meetings can be irritating as hell, but Ive always found an individual or two, who I can connect with, share similar values, exchange jokes with etc. And its those few important connections that can replace your old get high buddies, and save your life.....also, most of my 25 years w/AA has been there are some meetings that I wouldnt take my dog too, but a different one on the other side of town is cool as hell..ps. more folks that appear on the surface to be God freaks, are really skeptics when you talk with them after the meetings
