So long Jack and Jimmy

Life sure has been quite different since I gave up drinking. Being sober has really made a difference in my weight and my attitude. There won’t be any holes in my pocket or my liver. Gone are those days of drinking cokes with Jack or Jimmy Beam. No longer am I singing bad karaoke in a drunken state of mind. Someone who wanted me for a drinking buddy said “You’ll be back, I know you.” Nope. You do not know me at all. See ya.

Jack and Jimmy aren’t your real friends. They’re just drinking buddies that come and go. Alcohol is a depressant and too much of it decreases your longevity. You did the right thing.

Wow.... That is incredible! You found a cure for alcoholism, just don't drink as much! Brilliant!

So long, Johnnie Walker. It's been fun but best we part ways. I wish you well, but this is where I'm at now. Goodbye.

in his autobiography that he switched from drinking to smoking cannabis. He long out-lived his drinking "brother", Jack Kelly, from the Maverick series.

Well, it IS common sense to lay off alcohol in excess. To almost all of us, anyways.

It is a disease... you wouldn't tell a cancer patient " it's just common sense not to get cancer?!?"

Etymology is the study of root words. Alcohol literally comes from the words: Shadow Spirit + Vampire
