From the Grass Roots
THOSE DRY ONES!
I DON'T SUPPOSE THIS is according to The Book, but it is from my personal experience which never got in the book. In the past ten years in AA I am pretty sure that half the time I've been on a "dry one"; the other half of the time, when I was being a nice, quiet fellow, humble as all heck and nowhere near like my longtime self, frankly I was pretty miserable.
