[Groop] alcohol

[Eric Chun]

Cheers to Jonny and Ryan!

Supposedly alcohol addiction is hard to break free of, and you might
need a support group (like Alcoholics Anonymous).  Maurice Gibb
(of the Bee Gees) attended their meetings every day.

     Outside the studio, Gibb's life was complicated by his struggles with
     alcoholism. He suffered a relapse after the 1988 death of younger
     brother and solo star Andy Gibb, but soon got back on the wagon.
     In a
2001 interview, Maurice told USA TODAY that he still attended
     Alcoholics Anonymous meetings daily. "I live every day as an
     alcoholic," Gibb said. "There are just two days a week I don't worry
     about it: yesterday and tomorrow."

What an odd coincidence.  I've been letting my beer indulgence get the better of me and decided to start off the new year alcohol free myself.  I'm going for 30 days without a drop.  Today is day two!  I'll be saving a few kopins this month at least.
