Hey jphendrix
drinking at someone is like taking poison and waiting for the other guy to die.
I'm not sure whether you both agreed to quit or what, but I think everyone needs to run their own race...it would be great if everyone else stopped drinking along with us, but it's not likely in a lot of cases.
We live in a world of drinkers.
Thats why SR and places like it are so important - you'll find good advice and support here
