<BLOCKQUOTE style="MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px">Cheers to Jonny and
Ryan!<BR><BR>Supposedly alcohol addiction is hard to break free of, and you
might<BR>need a support group (like Alcoholics Anonymous). Maurice
Gibb<BR>(of the Bee Gees) attended their meetings every
day.<BR><BR>http://www.usatoday.com/life/2003-01-12-gibb-side_x.htm<BR><BR>
Outside the studio, Gibb's life was complicated by his struggles
with<BR> alcoholism. He suffered a relapse after the
1988 death of younger<BR> brother and solo star Andy
Gibb, but soon got back on the wagon.<BR> In a 2001
interview, Maurice told USA TODAY that he still
attended<BR> Alcoholics Anonymous meetings daily. "I
live every day as an<BR> alcoholic," Gibb said. "There
are just two days a week I don't worry<BR> about it:
yesterday and tomorrow."<BR><BR>Eric (who has more posts than Gary this
year! Bwa ha ha ha ...)<BR><BR>

<DIV><SPAN class=EC_e id=EC_q_11740dd0c87f2a28_3>> hey, Groop. This is
my first post. I just read the post about the dangers of<BR>> drinking
and driving. I would also like to add to that the dangers of<BR>>
drinking and living. Drinking alcohol is like inviting Groo onto the ship
<BR>> that is your brain. Today is my first day sober in over 10 years
of<BR>> destructive life damaging alcoholism. Lets all keep it straight
for '08.<BR>> <BR></SPAN></DIV>>
