November 20 - A true teacher is not the one with the most knowledge, but one who causes the most others to have knowledge.

Hey y'all, I just added another day to my sobriety. How about you?
.
Just feeling a little whimsical today so below is a list of Groaners that I know DAAVE will be jazzed by. Hopefully you will enjoy them also.
- The roundest knight at King Aurhur's round table was Sir Cumference. He acquired his size from too much pi.
- I thought I saw an eye doctor on an Alaskan island, but it turned out to be an optical Aleution.
- She was only a whiskey maker, but he lover her still.
- A rubber band pistol was confiscated from algebra class because it was a weapon of math disruption.
- The butcher backed into the meat grinder and got a little behind in his work.
- No matter how much you push the envelope, it'll still be stationery.
- A dog gave birth to puppies near the road and was cited for littering.
- A grenade thrown into a kitchen in France would result in Linoleum Blownapart.
- Two silk worms had a race. They ended up in a tie.
- Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
- A hole has been found in the nudist camp wall. The police are looking into it.
- Atheism is a non-prophet organization.
On page 132 of the Big Book, sixteen lines down and sixteen lines up is this phrase " We absolutely insist on enjoying life." One of my faves.
"We are not a glum lot"
So we think cheerfulness and laughter make for usefulness, Outsiders are sometimes shocked when we burst into merriment over a seemingly tragic experience out of the past. But why shouldn't we laugh" We have recovered, and have been given the power to help others.
Today I am grateful for:
- God My Higher Power
- My Sobriety
- Mamie, my schnauzer
- My Sponsor
- Movies
- A very good sense of humor. I have a lot of laugh lines and yes somethings are that funny.
- You
Now y'all be pretty now, ya heah.

I like the meat grinder joke. That one is a visual that's just gross.
It's nice to have humor and not be glum. It's just as easy to have a smile as a frown.
Love it.
Love your post.
Love laughing.
Love life.
Love not being a glum lot.
I'm so grateful.
You have a...ok how do i say it....different sense of humor, but I like it. I've never met you but I can just picture you saying all of those things and it makes me smile. Thanks for being you!
I continue to pray for thou.
