Bottoms Up!

A member of a North Carolina Group writes that his clergyman has a wonderful sense of humor. The pastor, who had offered his parish house for the new group's meetings, appeared early on the evening of the first meeting to be helpful in getting things started. He was not the first person there, however. A brand new A.A., from a neighboring town, was sitting there when he arrived. Spying the pastor (who was informally dressed), the new member rushed up, slapped him on the back and said: "Glad to see you, fellow. This A.A.'s a great thing for us drunks!" The pastor explained that he was not an A.A., that he was the minister of the church. The new member looked him over carefully and said: "Well, you LOOK like a drunk anyway!"
