The thought of whiskey in a glass of milk makes me gag! So does the term dry drunk...funny how only people who have had contact with aa in some way, shape or form understand what the term means. The first time I heard it was in an aa meeting and my sponsor used it to describe that nights speaker. LOL She went on to say that he didn't have "quality" sobriety.

LogCabin...I like what you say about combining science, wisdom and honesty and utilizing them to make a choice to not pick up.

I am confused however by the word choice. Whenever that word is used in regards to alcoholics there tends to be an onslaught of post that declare one is not a "true alcoholic" if they still have a choice of weather to drink or not. Now I think that whole ideology is just pure BS, but it is a huge tenant in aa doctrine and literature...how does one who works the program reconcile that? I am legitimately curious.
