My Name Is Mike

MY NAME is Mike and I'm an alcoholic. I have been saying that since 1959 (not continuously), but not until very recently have I said it and really meant it. I am in Taipei, Taiwan, working for an airline on the R and R (rest and recreation) project from Viet Nam. I've been out here for a little over six months. I can't say that they were sober months, but I can say that I am sober today. Before I go into this, though, let me do a little background work. I'm one of those talkative jugheads.
