yourself and be free of it.

Since I'm the only one who wrote about this convention, I assume this

is directed at me. The convention and hotel strike are front page

news

here. It's not even remotely stalking. It's my perspective. I don't

need to recover from having my own perspective.

sometimes it is good to know the enemy. collect documentation, make files,

get duplicates, maybe even put some in plastic (eg. some Nazi paraphenalia

is valuable today). maybe blanket the parking lot with simple fliers with

something like a list of us court cases and synopses adjudicating AA a

religion - or a simple but beguiling statement like " Apply the Serenity

Prayer to your elbow joint "

Bob says " Hey great conference, Joe, hey look what's under my windshield

wiper - it says " Apply the serenity prayer to your elbow joint " hey that's

great. um, Wait a minute, I don't quite get it. Do you Joe? Hmnmm. It

spells out ASPTEJ - good bumper sticker, huh.? "

Joe says, " I know from the past my elbow joint was often out of my control.

So, yeah, its cool. "

" God, meetings, and I being your sponsor, Bob, control your elbow for you

when it gets close to alcohol. I like it. "

" But wait, Joe, don't you think that's going a little too far? "

" Nope, really sums it up. "

Bob mutters " Hmm, I dunno about all this. "

Hotel and restaurant workers--you know, service sector, they make pretty

lousy wages. A piece about the strike emphasized how it brought together a

cross section of people, including the most recent immigrants from places

like Somalia. The AA conference is the biggest ever to come to MN, something

like 50,000 people.

Tall ships on the Misssissippi would be beautiful indeed. I saw one in Lake

Superior once, it was incredible.

Great, hope the steppers have to make their own beds and eat peanut

butter sandwiches. Hope the strikers get their raises too.

jen,

Yes, I'm aware that you were speaking of another individual on the

list.

Lane

-- it would make a great new cartoon series " The Recoverees -- an everyday

story of people with elbows " . You've certainly made a good start on the

script,

.

ps -- this suggestion is my intellectual property and entitles me to 5% on

all fortunes made from the series.
