 Call me during the day @ 310-352-6450 and I'll bend your ear
 about how I have not had a formal sponsor for a while and
 I have almost 6 years of recovery, Oh my 5th sponsor still likes
 to hear from me but I aint called him in a while....
 I have a very close network of friends that came in around the same
 time as I did.. and where in the big book says you gotta have a life
 long sponsor? I challenge you to find it... It mentions sponsorship
 at least three times in working the steps 3-8 but after that
 nothing...
 I am known as the "Heretic of AA"
