My name is Bobby Knackle-Holik.

My home group is the underground group we meet at the Old Pine Community Center for the

Lombard and Philadelphia on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays at 8 o'clock.

If you ever in the neighborhood, please stop by, we'd love to have you.

My sobriety day is June 2nd, 1988, and chapter 5 of the big book tells me what I'm supposed to do.

I will tell you in a general way what my life was like as an act of alcoholic, what happened to me,

and what my life was like today as a sober member of alcoholics anonymous.

Can everybody hear me?

Good.

Can you hear me, but I hear you.

You should do my best work in the dark.

First of all, I'd like to thank the committee for inviting me.

Even though I'd been in Memphis Airport before a half a dozen times, I'd actually never been

in the state of Tennessee until today, so I'd like to thank Frank here.

I mean, Doug.

I do, I really think, Doug has been very kind and he took me Lou and Linda around today to your beautiful city salt lots of things,

and it was pretty cool.
