WWhen the Mayerthorpe Hospital was built in

1949, medical service was at last available at a much closer locale for Whitecourt. Dr. Henry Vermullin, who had been established in Whitecourt since 1950, left in 1954. Drs. Yake and Letts from Mayerthorpe then began

The Names on the CenotaphThe Whitecourt Advisor

is helping to gather informa-tion and photographs in re-gards to the individuals listed on Whitecourt’s Cenotaph. The idea is to build a me-morial audio/visual pre-sentation at this structure.

To date, there is much work to be done. The fol-lowing gives some history in regards to some of the names. Anyone having any information or pho-tographs, please call the Legion at 778-3666.

A. Cornell is possibly Archibald Clayton Cor-nell, who died at the age of 23, on April 9, 1917. His address is listed as Ed-monton, at the same resi-dence as his father. He may very well have been working around Whitecourt in a lum-

ber camp. Archibald served in the 16th Battalion of the Canadian Infantry, and is bur-ied in Pas de Calais, France.

The cemetery overlooks the battlefi elds of Vimy and Sou-chez. The other A. Cornell

listed as a casualty for WWI lived in Goderich, Ontario.

There is no progress yet with E. Loban’s history.

B. McDowell is Bruce Robert McDowell, who died August 10, 1918. On his Attestation Paper, for the Canadian Over-Seas Expeditionary Force, he wrote his home address as White Court, as was the custom of the time. Bruce listed his occupation as farmer and fought with the 10th Battalion, Alberta Regiment. He is buried in Cerisy, France.

There are several R. McDowell’s listed as ca-sualties, with none stat-ing Whitecourt as their

residence. An attempt will be made to use census records

At the Generation GapA mother and daughter went of for a day of Christmas

shopping. After breezing through several stores, the mother saw an expensive fur coat on display. On impulse, she goes inside and asks to try it on. It is a good fi t. Turning to look in the mirror, she likes what she sees.

After thinking a second, the mother states “This year, I think I will buy my present instead of making you and dad shop for me and I think this fur coat would be perfect too.”

The daughter protested, “But mom, some helpless, poor creature has to suffer so that you can have this.”

“Don’t worry honey,” says the mother, “your father won’t get the bill for a couple of weeks.”

Following the Little Brother

Job DescriptionLouisa” asked her small

brother, “could you help me with my math homework?”

“Certainly not,” re-plied Louisa indignantly. “It wouldn’t be right.”

“Maybe not,” said her little brother with a smile, “but could you at least try?”

Specialized Government LabourWhile visiting Edmonton, a Whitecourtite noticed a cou-

ple of city workers beavering away along the city sidewalks. The man was quite impressed with their hard work, but no matter how long he watched, he couldn’t fi gure out what they were doing.

Finally curiousity got the better of him and he approached the workers and asks “It seems that one of you digs a hole, and then the other guy immediately fi lls it back up again. Are you checking for something important?

One of the city workers explained, “Well no, we’re work-ing a little harder today, because usually there’s three of us. The guy who puts the trees in called in sick today.”

You Can’t Choose Your RelativesA pregnant woman gets into a car accident and falls into a

deep coma. Asleep for nearly six months, she wakes up franti-cally and asks the doctor about her baby.

The doctor replies, “Ma’am, you had twins! A boy and a girl. The babies are fi ne. Your brother came in and named them.”

The woman thinks to herself, “Oh no, not my brother -- he’s an idiot!” Expecting the worst, she asks the doctor, “Well, what’s the girl’s name?”

“Denise,” the doctor says. The new mother thinks, “Wow, that’s not a bad name!

Guess I was wrong about my brother. I like Denise!” Then she asks the doctor, “What’s the boy’s name?”

The doctor replies “DeNephew.”

coming to Whitecourt twice weekly. They held their consul-tations in the former R.C.M.P. Barracks, which is near the present day Whitecourt Work-wear, on Main Street.

Ruby Zutz was the recep-tionist for the doctors. She described the conditions as primitive, with room for about two people in the waiting room. There was no plumbing and the windows could not be opened for “a i r-condi t ion-ing”. However pa-tients kept coming and the doctors were always busy. In 1958 Drs. Yake and Letts sold out to Dr. Cannon and Dr. Archer who continued the bi-weekly visits. Dr. Archer left after a year or so and was replaced by Dr. Scales.

The weekly visits relieved the District Nurse of some of her heavy load but there was still plenty to keep her busy as well. The District Nurses continued to serve the area un-til 1959 when Whitecourt be-came part of the Lac Ste. Anne Health Unit. The area was then covered by Public Health Nurses working out of other

centres.

When the District Nurses Residence became vacant in 1959, Dr. Cannon from Mayer-thorpe rented the house from the Whitecourt Nursing Service So-ciety and established Dr. Preston as a resident doctor. However, Dr. Preston remained only a few months and the Mayerthorpe doctors were obliged to continue their weekly visits. By then they

had moved into new offi ces just up the street.

In 1960, Dr. Watson, in con-junction with the Mayerthorpe doc-tors, rented the former nurses’ home from the

Society for an offi ce and resi-dence. Dr. Watson left in Febru-ary 1963, and in April 1963, the nurses home was turned over to the New Town of Whitecourt for use as a municipal library. The Nursing Society was then dis-solved. However when the Pub-lic Health Unit requested offi ce space in Whitecourt in 1963 they too were granted space in the “li-brary” building.

In 1963, Dr. lan Ashforth and Dr. Kershaw bought the Mayerthorpe/Whitecourt Medi-

cal Clinic from Cannon and Scales and continued to make regular fi ve day/week visits until 1964. At this time, Dr. R. Hayhurst became es-tablished in Whitecourt and the town once more had a resident doctor. Dr. Hayhurst had medical privileges at the Mayerthorpe Hospital.

The Town Board and many citizens became highly concerned over the lack of local hospital facilities with such a rapidly growing popu-lation. Consequently through their concern, a Ministerial Order dated April 4, 1964, created the Whitecourt Gen-eral Hospital Dis-trict No. 97. This was approved by order- in-counci l January 19, 1965, and a Whitecourt Hospital Board was then established. The fi rst Board was comprised of r e p r e s e n t a t i v e s from three wards in Whitecourt: Al Mil-lar, Chairman. G. O. Lundgren, Vice-Chairman and A. Neidermayer. There were two represen-tatives from the two wards in I.D. 109, a

Mr. R. F. Pritchard and Mr. B. Pollack.

The Board immediately got down to business, choos-ing architect, contractors, and dealing with the myriad issues arising with the con-struction of a hospital. The fi nal plans were for a thirty-four bed active treatment cen-tre hospital which could be extended to fi fty beds when the need arose. There was to be a ten bed nurses’ residence attached. Mr. Murray Lees of Hinton was hired as the fi rst Administrator and Doreen Borle became the fi rst Nurs-ing Supervisor.

The Whitecourt General

Hospital offi cially opened May 18, 1966, and the fi rst patients were admitted May 28, 1966. Within two weeks they had admitted fi fty pa-tients and treated seventy out-patients. There was supposed to be a staff of twenty-six, including nurses, aides, and housekeeping staff. However, the full complement was not achieved by opening time.

Mr. Lees resigned as Administrator in 1968 and Frank Ogden was appointed to succeed him.

The Public Health Unit vacated their space in the li-

By Rowland Brohawn & Dan Parker

What do Rev. Walter Fauntroy, former ‘leftist’ U.S. civil rights leader, and ‘right wing’ economist Nor-man Bailey, former special assistant to President Rea-gan, have in common? How about Catholic insider Fr. Cassian Yuhaus, Orthodox Jewish Rabbi Herzel Kranz and leading Muslim econo-mist Professor Masudul Alam Choudhury? The answer is that all are championing the use of interest-free money.

Charitable events rightly re-ceive enormous coverage in the mainstream me-dia. Yet such necessary ac-tivities can only offer short-term relief, and often dependency, in regards to the overall problem of poverty in the midst of plenty. It is only by fundamental reform of an obsolete money system that the necessary longer term progress can take root.

The Canadian Global Justice Movement (GJM)

website, originating in Whitecourt, is a small part of a growing network that uses

new communica-tions technolo-gies to examine the industrial age economic system problems, and of-fer possible solu-tions. Member organizations in-clude the federal Canadian Action Party and provin-cial Alberta Social

Credit Party.

The Center for Eco-nomic and Social Justice (CESJ) is a key supporting U.S. member and sponsors the GJM website hosting. This year, members and guests of CESJ gathered

at the front entrance of the Federal Reserve Building in Washington, D.C. to pro-mote economic freedom and justice for every citizen. The event was entitled “Focus on the Fed”.

The purpose of the gathering was to draw at-tention to the Federal Re-serve and the impact of its

money creation policies on the concentration of capital ownership and government debt in the U.S., and to in-augurate the newly formed American Revolutionary Party (ARP).

The reform policies being

proposed by CESJ, although specifi c to the U.S., could be

Out of sight is out of mind for many of us. The Whitecourt Chamber of Com-merce is often seen as an organization of limited use by many area businesses. However, a new outreach project, started under outgoing Chamber president Janet Kuehn, and carried on by new president Dave Dunville, looks set to change this.

The candidate’s forum, pictured above, is just one of many events the Chamber organizes or participates in, to contribute to both Whitecourt’s demo-cratic structures and economic well be-ing. Other events include the annual Trade Fair and the Christmas Parade.

In addition, the Chamber offers small business benefi ts such as group health care and low credit or debit card rates. Call 778-5363 for more details.

brary building in 1966 and moved to an old house south of Central School. Dr. Lorne Hatch arrived in February. 1967, and set up practice in this building as well. How-ever, Dr. Hatch shortly there-after joined Dr. Hayhurst in his clinic across from the Fire Hall. The Pub-lic Health Unit moved into new offi ces in the new Town Building in 1967.

By 1970 Drs. Hayhurst and Hatch had built a new Medical Surgical Clinic on the corner of 49th Street and 51st Avenue and were look-

ing for more doctors to join them. Since the end of the sixties, Whitecourt has re-ceived no new health institu-tions.

The preced-ing is an adapted excerpt from the book Sagitiwah Saga. This book, with hundreds of photos of early Whitecourt, is available at the Heritage Centre just west of the

What is Live Blood Analysis?Two drops of living blood are taken from the client’s finger by way of a tiny pinprick. The “live” sample shows function and activities of the blood cells while the “layered” or “dry” sample shows the waste by-products produced in those areas of the body not functioning as they should. Using photo comparisons the analyst views the images using a fiber-optic, video-enhanced, high-resolution microscope, which are simultaneously seen by the client on a TV monitor with magnification of up to approx. 15,000x using both light and darkfield analysis. This high resolution shows white and red cell activity, immune and nutritional status, cholesterol, yeast, parasites, bacteria, mycotoxins. and indications of stress and disease.Have you ever had a “sick and tired” feeling that won’t go away?Have you or a friend or family member ever felt “sick and tired” and couldn’t readily find an explanation for it? Many of our clients have reported that due to live blood analysis and a consultation they have finally been able to resolve longstanding health problems. They had been puzzled for months, or even years, by symptoms that usually did not show up on tests that came back “normal”. With the help of live blood analysis, in most instances, they were amazed to actually see for themselves what was causing their sick and tired feeling.

the door, she was handed a box containing a dozen long-stemmed red roses. At 1 PM, a foil-wrapped, two pound box of her favorite chocolates arrive. Later, a boutique delivered a designer dress. The woman couldn’t wait for her husband to come home. “First the fl owers, then the candy, and then the dress!” she exclaimed. “I’ve never spent a more wonderful Groundhog Day in my whole life!’

Solar cooker in ChadGNA - A loose association of fi ve German nongovern-

mental organizations (NGOs) has formed the PapiTchad Work Group to promote the “Papillon” solar cooker in Chad and evaluate the results. The Papillon is essentially a para-bolic cooker consisting of two refl ective “wings” with a gap in between to allow for comfortable use by the cook and folding of the refl ectors for transport and storage. The work group, in conjunction with a Chadian instructor, has provided construction courses for local craftsmen. PapiTchad is part-nering with the Chadian Association of Volunteers for Prog-ress and the Environment. http://www.goldcdm.net/Index_PapiTchad.424.0.html

Derk Rijks of the KoZon Foundation began a small demon-stration project in northern Chad at the Iridimi camp for refugees from the Darfur region of Sudan. Mr. Rijks took 100 “CooKits” — panel-type solar cookers developed by Solar Cookers Inter-national — to the camp. The project tested whether food donated to the refugees by the United Nations World Food Programme could be solar cooked and whether the refugees would accept solar cooking. Three CooKit trainers from N’Djamena, Chad — Marie-Rose Neloum, Martine Missal and Esther Ndoroumta — aided in the training. The refugee women were enthusiastic! They cooked rice, maize and sorghum porridge, legumes, dried fi sh and okra sauces. Staff members from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in Geneva were very helpful. Efforts are being made to expand the program. www.kozon.org - Good News Agency

Every year is an impor-tant year to honour veterans and their service. However 2005 is especially meaning-ful because it marks the 60th anniversary of the end of the Second World War. Among other efforts, the Government of Canada is developing a new Veterans Charter that will better support Canadian Forces members and their families who are re-entering

Remembrance Posters to Print(NC)-This Remembrance Day why not download one of

Veterans Affairs Canada beautiful Year of the Veteran posters and help the people in your life connect with the sacrifi ces of Canadian Veterans. Veterans Affairs Canada has produced fi ve visually stunning and emotionally moving posters to com-memorate the Year of the Veteran. One is shown opposite.

There are fi ve posters in all under the themes of Re-member, Thank, Honour, Celebrate and Teach. Each poster depicts a moving scene - war graves to remember, veterans interacting with youth to thank, the National Vimy Memorial in France to honour and children celebrating the end of the war to celebrate. Some of the photos are old, some are new. What they all have in common is they carry a moving mes-sage of remembrance for those Canadians who served and, in thousands of cases, sacrifi ced their lives. To download the posters, go to canada.gc.ca and click on Veterans under the A - Z index. Then go to the Year of the Veteran website at www.vac-acc.gc.ca. There is also a three-minute video available as well called “2005 Year of the Veteran.” - News Canada

Canadian Virtual War Memorial(NC)-The legacy

of Canada’s Veterans lives on in the Cana-dian Virtual War Me-morial.

This on-line registry contains in-formation about the graves and memo-rials of more than 116,000 Canadians and Newfoundland-ers who served and gave their lives for their country. Also included is information about more than 100 soldiers who died in service since the Korean War, including peacekeeping and other operations.

The purpose of the Canadian Virtual War Memorial is to keep alive the memory of the achievements and sacrifi ces made by Canada’s Veterans. Veterans Affairs Canada is encouraging Canadians to send in photos or memorabilia of Canada’s war dead. These photos will be used to put a face to the name of each special soldier. The Canadian Virtual War Memorial also provides access to additional search resources that are avail-able on the Internet. Canadians wanting to participate can go to canada.gc.ca, click on Veterans in the A-Z index and then visit the Canada Remembers site. - News CanadaCanadian Fallen Heroes Foundation

The Canadian Fallen Heroes Foundation’s goal is to pro-duce one personal Memorial Print for all 117,000 Canadian men and women that have died in either the Boer War, World War 1, World War 2 or on United Nations peacekeeping missions. For more information, see their inspiring website at www.canadian-fallenheroes.ca. Their poster is shown right.

easily adapted for implemen-tation by the Bank of Canada. It would be the next step up in the innovative fi nancing through the Bank of Canada that allowed the country to do its bit against fascism in WWII; even though at the

war’s outbreak we were in the depths of a depression.

A key point of substitut-ing service charges for the exponential driver of com-pound interest was a facet of the Canadian contribution to the monetary reform concepts

being proposed To their credit, the Americans have hi-lighted this as the fi rst point in their marketing fl yer for their U.S. Federal Re-serve proposal, entitled Capital Homesteading for Every Citi-zen.

It should be pointed out

that the original homestead-ing legislation promoted by U.S. president Abraham Lin-coln was later adapted by the Canadian government to pro-mote settlement in the west. Both North American leg-islative works have helped lay the foundation for democratic advances. En-abling fami-lies to easily own their own land helped free them from such feudalis-tic practices as sharecropping and wage slav-ery.

It is hard to think of an early Whitecourt pioneer who didn’t move here, or stay here, due to the quarter section of land they could get

for a $10.00 fi ling fee, and ‘proving up’ the land over three years. The wealth and democracy that this devel-oped into is but a small in-dication of the possibilities

of expanding the homes tead ing concept into capital owner-ship. Critical as it is, farming is now but a tiny part of the total economy, with highly capital-ized machines now producing most wealth.

Participants in the ‘Focus on the Fed’event wore “Own or Be Owned” t-shirts designed by CESJ intern Chris Carson.

In WWII, George Ed-ward Deatherage was a pilot offi cer and air gunner in the #101 Squadron. During a night action on December 17, 1944, his Lancaster aircraft was shot down over Albeck, Germany.

The crew of 7 were killed. George is buried in Durnbach, Germany. George’s brother, Walter Da-vid Deatherage, was killed in action earlier, on September 2, 1942, at the age of 20.

Whitecourt Heritage president John Dahl remem-bers George Deatherage as a good friend of his older broth-er, Vet Gilbert. They worked together at the Western Mill.

Morley Junior Brewer was a fl ight sergeant and air gunner in the #429 Bison Squadron. He was killed in action on February 27, 1945 at the age of 19. The starboard tire blew as his Halifax air-craft took off from England. The plane cartwheeled onto the pavement causing the bombs on board to explode. The crew of 6 were killed. Morley is buried in Harro-gate, England.

Gorden Brown, fellow Vet and good friend of Mor-ley, remembers him as a stel-lar student. They met in Grade 8, when Morley fi rst moved to

Whitecourt.There was no record of

Korean Vet David D. Ivans anywhere among the Canadi-an researchers. As downtown Gordon Brown recalls, David was underage and signed up in America. David lived with his parents in a house down by Rotary Park.

There is no David D. Ivans listed in the main U.S. database of Korean Vets. There is a David Darwin Iv-ens from Alberta, Canada. This might be the person, but more work is needed to con-fi rm this.

David Darwin Ivens was listed as a member of Compa-ny C, 1st Battalion, 5th Ma-rines, 1st Marine Division. He was killed in a battle in Korea on June 3, 1951. David was awarded the Purple Heart, the Combat Action Ribbon, the Korean Service Medal, the United Nations Service Medal, the National Defense Service Medal and the Ko-rean War Service Medal.

On November 11, please remember all veterans and our peacekeepers. If you at-tend the Remembrance Day ceremonies, think of the in-dividuals listed on the Ceno-taph, and the bit of their sto-ries told here; and the future that they have made possible for us. §

Some young people who were attending gatherings in preparation for protests to be held at the World Bank dropped by and got some information that is criti-cal to really understanding what the fi nancial problems are. Quite often World Bank protestors promote more and more big government, with-out realizing the problems involved in going down this road. Given the lessons of Russia and China, it should be obvious the solutions do not lie in this direction.

Kemp Harshman, a CESJ board member and President of the Clarendon Foundation, provided an excellent sound system and photographed the event. The group received a cordial and cooperative re-ception from the security

staff at the Federal Reserve as well as from the D.C. Met-ropolitan Police.

Capital Homesteading and the FED

American Revolutionary Party Co-Founder Rick Os-bourne, best known as “the press secretary for virtual presidential candidate Joe Lunch Buckett,” opened the proceedings. Before introduc-ing the speakers, Rick com-mented on the importance of democratizing the free market economy to provide a sound basis for economic and social development—not just for the United States, but for the world.

Rabbi Herzel Kranz of the Silver Spring Jewish Center gave an invocation, preceded with some com-

mentary. He recognized the late Louis Kelso and his writ-ings that underpin the work of CESJ promoting the goal of economic justice through broadened capital owner-ship. His invocation offered thanks for God’s bounty and noted the importance of ev-eryone sharing in it in a just and equitable way.

CESJ President and Em-ployee Stock Ownership Pro-gram pioneer, Norman Kur-land, next gave a short history on the Just Third Way, men-tioning the special role that the late Senator Russell Long played. Among his many oth-er qualifi cations, Mr. Kurland is also a lawyer and an econo-mist who served as deputy director of Project Economic Justice under U.S. President Reagan.

Ex-Alaska Senator Mike

Gravel, who helped intro-duce the oil dividend cheque that Alaskans now regularly receive, sits on the advisory council of CESJ. Current Senator Rick Santorum has endorsed a letter of support for Just Third Way money is-suances for Iraq.

Rev. Walter Fauntroy

then took the stage, remark-

ing on the importance of the Homestead Act and its r e l a t i o n -ship to the Emancipa-tion Proc-lamation, and how C a p i t a l H o m e -s t e a d i n g was the next neces-sary step. The Fed-eral Re-serve, Rev. F a u n t r o y observed, is the key to opening up access by every citizen to the means of acquiring and possessing private property. In addition to a playing a leadership role during the U.S. civil rights movement, Rev. Fauntroy was a member of the Con-gressional House Banking, Finance and Urban Affairs Committee and served for six years as chair of the Subcom-mittee on International De-

velopment, Finance, Trade and Monetary Policy.

Norman Bailey fol-lowed, commenting on the need to end wage slavery by universalizing access to capi-tal ownership, reinforcing Rev. Fauntroy’s point that changing Federal Reserve policy was critical to creating a genuinely free, and demo-cratic, society. He observed that the police offi cers at the event were also wage slaves and deserved the opportunity as citizens to easily acquire income-producing capital. Mr. Bailey is currently a con-sulting economist for The Potomac Foundation and for-merly served as Senior Direc-tor of International Economic Affairs on the White House National Security Council.

Monetary Justice.

CESJ board member Dawn Brohawn read the Dec-laration of Monetary Justice and called upon CESJ’s Cu-ban-American-Texan revolu-tionary Humberto Rodriguez to deliver the signed declara-tion to Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan. Rick Osbourne then read the letter support-ing Capital Homesteading and the ARP that was sent by Joseph Recinos, Executive Director of the Solidarista Council of Central Amer-ica, on behalf of the 3,000 Solidarista Associations and 480,000 members.

Letters of support sent by Fr. Cassian Yuhaus and Prof. María Teresa Rosón (Buenos Aires, Argentina) were also read aloud. Through his close

Participant Statements

Participants at the rally were invited to offer their statements. Bob Scanlon, CESJ board member and a member of Beyond Just Faith, declared that the Unit-

ed States is ready for Capital Homesteading, and that the idea is critical to individual freedom. He stated “the big-gest problem we face is get-ting people to understand the idea; it is a new way of thinking”. Rob Woodman, President of the Seafarer’s Empowerment Association (SEA), gave a brief expres-sion of solidarity with the American Revolutionary Party, followed by remarks by Steve Nieman, Co-Founder of the Ownership Union, on how wages alone are not suffi cient for build-ing economic security and independence. Only capital ownership, he noted, has the potential to stop the fl ight of jobs overseas. All stakehold-ers should have the opportu-nity to become shareholders, and ownership should be for

Humberto Rodriguez, President and Founder of the Free People’s Foundation, then spoke of his lifelong struggle for freedom, and his belief that Capital Home-steading is the economic foundation of the freedom that he fought for in Cuba and for the U.S. in World War II. He proclaimed that the Unit-ed States has the right and the duty to help everyone be free. John Romano then expressed his wholehearted support for the work of CESJ and the po-sition of ARP. He added that one of the basic problems was how corporations were fi nanced. He noted that re-forms are needed to make it easier to form capital, and to facilitate democratic partici-pation in the process.

An Annual Event

All in all, the participants felt that the day was a success. It introduced to the world the American Revolutionary

Party and served as the fi rst of what is hoped will become an annual event—at least un-til Capital Homesteading for every citizen is established as national policy. ARP will strive to build public aware-ness of the key role of the Federal Reserve in creating money and credit to build the productive sector and univer-salize access to ownership of new growth through Capital Homesteading.

In Alberta, Socreds will continue working to educate both the public and mem-bers of other political parties about needed economic and monetary reform. The latest news on this front is that the Beverly-Clairview constitu-ency association in Edmon-ton now has over 200 mem-bers, with 30 volunteers dis-tributing the reborn Alberta Social Credit Chronicle. As previously stated, a central facet of social credit is that it doesn’t matter which party enacts needed changes, as long as the needed changes are enacted. §

COUNTDOWN TO X-MAS

Test: ‘Growing Up is Hard to Do’ - You keep more food than beer in the fridge.- 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to sleep.- Your friends marry and divorce instead of “hookup” and

“breakup”. - Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as ‘dressed up.’ - You’re the one calling the police because your neigh-

bor next door plays the stereo to loud. - Your car insurance goes down and your car payments

go up. - You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald’s. - Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt. - You no longer take naps from noon to 6 p.m. - Dinner and a movie - The whole date instead of the

beginning of one. - Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 a.m. would se-

verely upset, rather than settle, your stomach. - A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer ‘pretty good stuff.’ - You actually eat breakfast foods at breakfast time. - “I just can’t drink the way I used to,” replaces “I’m

never going to drink that much again.” - Over 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer

is for real work. - You don’t drink at home to save money before going

to a bar. - You read this entire list looking for one sign that doesn’t

apply to you.
