Sober 15 years since 9/15/1984 shortly after he had moved back home, Mitchell came into AA when his dad was 13 years sober in the Program and his mother was a "black-belt Al-Anon".
A past Delegate from Oklahoma, Mitchell shares a great story about returning to college - twice.
While drinking in college he would sign-up for classes and never go.
When he got sober, he applied back to the same college and they made a near miraculous exception for him but put him on very strict academic probation for a year. He was to become a leader in the school in his field of choice.
Later he got mad at a boss and applied to graduate school, in spite, even though he could not afford the tuition.
He took the tests and scored so high they gave him a scholarship.
"I got a masters degree by accident!"
Funny and Powerful - Enjoy!
