Thanks for sharing...
It was very good, so well put and with lots of humor. However, he told it like it is.

Thank you.

I do find him really funny but don't question AA or God because he will get upset about it.

All love here :-)

His memoir is quite a good read (I have a thing for reading celebrity memoirs of recovered alcoholics). He explains the alcoholic condition really well in that too. It's called "American On Purpose".

I love this!!!!I love him!!! He is so right on about alcohol! .."maybe I'll go on a diet" totally something I would of thought..... It is amazing how a alcoholic will wrap their brain around something, to justify having a drink/drinking...I know I could come up with some doozies! ..I love his honesty and he just seems so real about alcohol/alcoholism that makes me relate.... Alcohol will forever be a fight in my head with the alcoholic thinking/voice....some days will be easier then other days! .......Somertime, I to love reading celebrity memoir, I will have to get his book.
