Friend Bill (another boring meeting)

Another lame meeting down. Boniface bless the I-phone. Anyway, here's what I got done:

To the tune of Fred Bear by Ted Nugent ~

There I was, back in the roomz again
And I felt right at home where I belong
I had that feelin' comin' over me again
Just like it happened so many times before (yeah)

The spirit of the ouija is like an old good friend
It makes me feel snark and smug inside
I knew his name and it was good to see him again
'Cause in the roomz he's still alive

Oh, Friend Bill, chant with me in the rooomz again
Keep coming back, back where I belong
Oh, Friend Bill, I'm glad to have you at my side, my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long
Before too long

It was kinda dark, another smoke-filled room
And he came from a jail down the road
I tried to remember everything he taught me so well
I had to decide which line to quote

Was I alone or in a sponsor's dream?
'Cause the moment of lies was here and now
I felt his touch, I felt his groping hand
Prospect was mine, forevermore!

Because of Friend Bill
I'll chant down in these roomz again
Keep coming back where I belong
Oh, Friend Bill, I'm glad to have you at my side my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long

We're not alone when we're in the steppers' cult
We got his spirit (not religion), we've got his faults
He will guide our Steps, he'll guide our pigeons home
The senseless sharing forever drones

Friend Bill, chant with me in the basements again
Keep coming back, back where I belong
Oh, Friend Bill, I'm glad to have you at my side, my friend
And I'll join you on the big hunt before too long

Oh, Friend Bill, chant with me to the prospects again
Keep coming back, back where I belong
Oh, Friend Bill, I'm glad to have you at my side, my friend
And I'll join you in the big hunt before too long

In the roomz he's still alive
In the roomz he's still alive
In the roomz he's still alive
In the roomz he's still alive
In the ouija, I hear, I hear Friend Bill

(I hear ya Bill,
Talk to me,
Yea,
It's all right
Lets go hunting baby
Say Bill, you go bang that newcomer broad
And I'll go register a copyright
We'll make some bucks)
(Bill)

Did you knit?

You're in the wrong job Pennywise. Nosy question question coming up. Here's the scenario: you're sitting the basement. You hear the same sad share from the same sad person and it's obvious that trying to make aa work is driving them bat shit crazy. (Crazier than they were to begin with.) Do you ever say anything to this individual after the meeting, or would that just be a waste of time? Do people just have to figure it out for themselves?

On certain occasions I will say something, mostly to the effect of "you know, a lot of what you hear here is not true. If you really want to get sober, try ignoring all this and just don't drink no matter how badly you want to." But for the most part I keep it to myself. Discussing things outside of cult dogma goes over about as well as debating with a preacher during Sunday service. People don't want to hear it.

"Hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side, kid."
