There is a terrific movie based on the life of Bill Wilson called "My Name is Bill W.", starring JoBeth Williams, James Woods and James Garner. Probably about 20+ years old now. In one scene it shows Bill in a bar/pub drunk as a skunk and the whole place is engaged in a very drunken rendition of "Barney Google", a favorite song of the era.

***** Maybenot, RC, but you are the only poet I know who's dastardly plagiarizing vastly improves that which has been stolen. Thank you, jj. And, Luke, I don't know that film - I shall ask our local cinema manager to consider it for 2013. And the next two words are: (Ta Da!!)IDEAL - IDOLATER

Some folk, with great gusto, go rambling; Some, guidebook in hand, prefer ambling; But the really cool guys Eschew exercise And spend all their leisure time gambling.

Masochism, anyone? Necrophilism? Bestiality? NO? - I see I'm flogging a dead horse, here.
Why subject yourself to great pain, When far better options remain. The masochistic urge You should try to submerge And strive to be joyful again!

Good Catholics love the saints dearly And honour their martyrdom yearly, But the atheist view Is that Scripture's untrue, So religion's a masquerade, really.
