RE: Talking to the DEAD! What's Crazy, and What Isn't... is Pretty Crazy! (Ulog No. 50)
I have an older brother, that I say is a "functioning alcoholic"
He drinks large amounts of alcohol pretty much any day that He does not work his deep mine coal mining job. He went a mile deep to be a "roof bolter" at 18 yrs old.
A job one would have to be "insane" to do.
He is now 55 and a "highly certified mine foreman/electrician." & a "functional alcoholic."
Many people, I being one of them. Are "functioning insane" I think We all have a degree of "insanity."
These voices, or one might say.... "Conscience" can be an asset or a liability.
Uhhhg.... My voice (one of them) is saying, "shut up fool and go to bed, your tired and rambling." It is correct, good night... LoL
I hear you, brother!
I agree we're all functionally nuts, in one way or another. My mother was a functioning alcoholic... you could gauge her degree of inebriation by the status of her political leanings: When she was sober, she was a liberal, when she was drunk, she was somewhere to the right of Attila the Hun.
