At least that is what people joked about in the 70's.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-22018594164228701022010-07-14T13:28:08.083-04:002010-07-14T13:28:08.083-04:00I'm in AA and I think this is funny and clever...I'm in AA and I think this is funny and clever.

Will the presence of a bar ironically referencing The Big Book or AA-babble really cause a sober person to go off the wagon or take the supposed 13th Step? The people that I know who are most successful in their sobriety are the ones with a sense of humor about it, who can laugh at themselves and at what they must do to maintain their abstinence.
