THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

PROGRAM JOKES | 2006-10-20

My kidding with Joe reminds me of something I'd like to put on record.

As you are aware, the success of Alcoholic Anonymous has led to the creation of hundreds of other Twelve-Step groups to del with other things besides alcohol abuse. They range from Emotions Anonymous to Sexaholics Anonymous and endless others, none of which are a joke and all of which are serious.

Which led to JOKES inside AA. All of us have heard the one about Procrastinators Anonymous, which has yet to hold its first meeting.

I got tired of that one, so I made up some of my own:

"Have you heard of Paranoids Anonymous?"

"Who the hell told you about us?"

Have you heard of Depressives Anonymous?"

"They only had one meeting. They agreed it was hopeless and went home."

"Have you ever heard of Workaholics Anonymous?"

"They attend fourteen meetings a day."

"Have you ever heard of Shy People Anonymous?"

"Of course you haven't."

That is truly funny, Bob. You've got a very good sense of humour. That's a good thing. For sure. Considering all the work you do.

Have you heard about the 12 step Anti-Whites anonymous?

They are made up of left wingers who scream and pound their heads into the wall in anger when they hold a meeting, and refuse to take asprins for their self inflicted headaches.

Why, you ask, do they refuse to take aspirins?

Because all of the little asprins in all of the little aspirin bottles are White.

Ok, okay...I know...the curtain is closing and the crowd is leaving...whoo boy...
