Today I might choose one of those others, oh I don't know what they had ahead for me and so in four hours they took me up and they said go over and sit around that tree that round table and get you a cup of coffee and when you get through keep your mouth shut and see if you can learn something about staying sober about then they came in and they got that 300 pound semen and he's dead dead i mean i'm not i'm not making this up he's dead and they took him out and i said what's he doing he said he died he's a lucky one so then i sat around that table all day and i never will forget as long as i live the guy that started the 24 hours the name toughy because the way he lived anyway uh toughy comes walking around and he said well bob uh you learn anything about staying sober? And I said, no, Mr. Tuffy, I haven't learned anything about staying sober. And he said, what time is it? And I said, I don't know. He said, works works don't it i hadn't had a drink for eight hours and forest tubby was concerned i was sober now the book doesn't talk this way but let me tell you what on the waterfront mr toughy tells it out is they haven't got the big book yet. Yeah.
