Looking forward to your return, will be missing you while you are gone.

Like Placermike said it does take guts to own up to a problem like this, I have got a brother who will not take the step you are doing.

John, It takes alot of courage to come out and say what you said. I want to be the first to buy you a drink as soon as you are cured from alcoholism.


Just kidding.... I think John would appreciate us keeping things going in the "spirit" of high "spirits" HA HA HA


Good luck Brotha.. It is a long and trying road. Keep the faith and talk through your issues.

John, step one is admitting the problem. I know, I went through this myself a couple years back. One thing that kept me from going back to drinking is thinking of my uncle- He's 64-ish, now unemployed, has permanently lost his license, has two or three divorces behind him, and lives with his mother. Not becoming that was my motivation.
If you want to talk anymore, let me know.

Hey all, John's well enough to play Halo and the really good news is that now I get to drink all the beer myself!

Thanks y'all, I appreciate that. Last night was absolutely horrible.
I probably won't really be posting today because I'm having a little difficulty with the brain and understanding English.

emmyndex- lostmybeer might have been reffering to the old lollipops in different shapes called Barley Pops. If I get it right it was a typical joke for him. He didn't mean any offense.

I might post a little later but for right now it's back to my cell (bedroom).
