Beer & sex.
Sorry,
Sex & beer.

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be....
Englishman has something there. In the beer category, it would have to be Guinness.

Celtic,
How do I stay positive?
By recognizing that there is a big world out there of which the WTS plays a very small and very insignificant part.
That one good piece of music is more valuable to the soul than 100 meetings and that one fine piece of art can feed the heart for ever.
That life is made up of moments and that compassion and kindness overwhelm issues and causes and fights.
That though the WTS has tried to take all the spontaneity and mystery out of life, they have failed. Life is an exciting and very mysterious journey along which we can to a large degree manipulate our own destiny.
Trying to stay enthusiastic by remembering that you cannot build a paradise, or a future, on flat champagne.
Just a few random thoughts.
Best regards - HS
Scrumpy and spliffage do help I know in this regard, ... sex - whats that, never heard of it?!!
Really appreciated that Hilary, thankyou!!

Oh Mark, you protest too much.
Life really isn't that bad on the outside. Am too drunk to care at the moment.
Hillary,
You are a poet and do not know it, but your feet show it. They are Longefellows. hee hee.
For the rest of you,
Beer and sex are not the answer. Too much beer and you are into a fight. You are ready to hunt bear with a fly swatter, and sex in the wrong bed could lead to a whole lot of fighting.
I don't get tired of fighting because I don't even consider myself to be fighting anyone or anything.
I'm getting on with my life. I really don't care about the WTS anymore.
My life is mine, and I'm living it.
I'm tired
