hardboiled, for me, anything good that I have done has not had alcohol involved. But I guarantee that anything harmful, to myself or another person, has had booze as the common denominator.
I don't have a switch to turn off so I won't pick up a second, third, or tenth drink anymore. I don't think that I ever did, even in my early drinking career.
Alcoholics don't have an off-switch. And those normal drinkers that do cannot understand why 'we' don't.
