First meeting at Andykev's on 3-15-05 8 PM.


The Twelve Steps Of Hataholics :)


We admitted that we were powerless over felt and straw and that our lives had become unmanageable.


Came to believe that a power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity, maybe.


Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of a higher power as we understood Her/Him not our hatter


Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves and our bank account


Admitted to our higher power, ourselves and another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. {Bought to many hats}


Were entirely ready to have our higher power remove these defects of character. Huh!


Humbly asked our higher power to remove our shortcomings, only one hat a year

Made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all. (Told our wives the truth if we had one left!}


Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. { Sorry I bought your hat}


Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it.{ If we slip tell others!}


Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with our higher power as we understood Her/Him, praying only for knowledge of Her/His will for us and the power to carry that out. {Whew!}


Having had a awakening as a result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others an to practice these principles in all our affairs.{ Told them how not to buy to many hats}

Sharpetoys -- That is just about the funniest thing I have seen on this site. I will have to print it and post it in a prominent place.

Maybe I will have to start a San Diego branch of HA -- if I can find enough people in this area who have my, uh, affliction...

Lord, help me to accept the hats I cannot change, to change the things on hats I can, and the wisdom to know the difference between a wool felt and a beaver felt and Lord never let me buy from SBS.

The heck with this I am going to go buy another hat---beating out some poor unsuspecting bidder and post pictures to the Lounge and brag about it. :p

I will still attend the meeting with free beer though. I think it is close enough to drive. :p Will there be sandwiches and stag films too? ;)

Regards to all,
